Polyglyceryl-2 oleyl ether
Description
Polyglyceryl-2 Oleyl Ether (CAS 71032-90-1) is a polyglycerol-based nonionic surfactant derived from diglycerol and oleyl alcohol. It functions as an emulsifier, humectant, and wetting agent across personal care, cleaning, and industrial applications.
In cosmetic formulations, it stabilizes oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions in creams, lotions, and serums. It contributes moisturizing properties to the finished product while maintaining a smooth texture and consistent application.
Home care and industrial cleaning formulations use it to improve substrate wetting and boost the dispersibility of active ingredients. It is frequently found in liquid detergents and surface cleaners to enhance overall performance.
Textile processing operations apply it as a wetting and softening agent during fiber treatment, dyeing, and finishing stages. This ensures that dyes and treatments are absorbed evenly throughout the fabric during the manufacturing process.
In leather and paper manufacturing, it supports surface modification by improving the uniform distribution of treatment agents across substrates. This leads to higher quality finishes and more durable end products for industrial use.
Polyglyceryl-2 Oleyl Ether is typically supplied as a liquid or viscous paste, depending on concentration and formulation. It is available in cosmetic-grade and technical-grade specifications to meet various requirements.
These specifications ensure the product meets the needs of personal care manufacturers and industrial processors respectively. Standard packaging includes drums and IBCs for bulk procurement and efficient logistics management.
