The Synergy of Citric Acid and Laureth-7: Innovations in Cosmetic Surfactants
At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we are constantly exploring innovative ingredient synergies to advance the personal care industry. A prime example of this is Laureth-7 Citrate, a sophisticated surfactant formed by combining Laureth-7 with citric acid. This innovative blend offers enhanced conditioning properties and superior mildness, making it a highly sought-after ingredient among cosmetic raw material suppliers.
Laureth-7, a non-ionic surfactant derived from lauryl alcohol, is known for its cleansing and emulsifying capabilities. However, when esterified with citric acid, the resulting Laureth-7 Citrate (CAS numbers 565429-75-6 & 161756-30-5) exhibits a remarkable synergy. The citric acid component contributes not only to the stability of the molecule but also imparts additional benefits such as mildness and enhanced skin compatibility. This makes it a gentle cleansing agent, ideal for sensitive skin formulations.
The most significant advantage of Laureth-7 Citrate lies in its conditioning performance for hair. Compared to traditional conditioning agents, it provides excellent smoothness and gloss without the typical issue of build-up or residue. This means hair feels cleaner, softer, and more manageable after washing. The moisturizing properties of Laureth-7 Citrate are also noteworthy, ensuring that hair and scalp remain hydrated. This makes it a superior surfactant for hair care products.
The application of Laureth-7 Citrate spans a wide range of personal care products, including shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and hand washes. Its ability to create a luxurious lather and rinse cleanly enhances the user experience. Furthermore, its emulsifying properties are beneficial in creating stable and aesthetically pleasing creams and lotions. For cosmetic raw material suppliers, offering an ingredient with such advanced properties, like Laureth-7 Citrate, provides a competitive edge.
NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is proud to be at the forefront of developing and supplying ingredients like Laureth-7 Citrate. The innovative combination of Laureth-7 and citric acid represents a significant step forward in creating milder, more effective, and more luxurious personal care products that cater to the discerning consumer.
