Myrj™ S8

Chemical Description

Macrogol Stearate; Polyoxyl 8 Stearate (PEG 8 Stearate)

Product Description

They are effective O/W emulsifiers suitable for use in medicated creams and lotions, even in the presence of electrolytes. They are hydrophilic, water soluble surfactants that display inverse aqueous solubility characteristics with increasing temperature. They are also stable in the presence of moderately strong acids, alkalis and electrolytes. Recommended topical usage levels of 0.5-5%.
