Potassium Cetyl Phosphate

Release time:2024-01-02

Product Name: Potassium Cetyl Phosphate

Alias: Potassium monocetyl phosphate; Phosphoric acid,cetyl ester,potassium salt; Phosphoric acid, cetyl ester, potassium salt

CAS No.: 17026-85-6

Molecular Formula: C16H33K2O4P

Molecular Weight: 398.601


Sources of Potassium Cetyl Phosphate:

Potassium cetyl phosphate is a natural surfactant extracted from spermaceti. Spermaceti is an oil secreted by the epidermis of cetaceans, after refining and processing, cetyl alcohol can be obtained; subsequently, cetyl alcohol is esterified with phosphoric acid to generate cetyl alcohol phosphate; finally, through neutralization reaction with potassium hydroxide, potassium cetyl phosphatee is obtained.


Properties:

White or milky white crystal powder particles, the HLB value is about 10. It has excellent emulsification, solubilization and dispersion properties, can enhance the stability of the emulsified particle interface film, and can emulsify a variety of oil phases including silicone oil.

Applications of Potassium Cetyl Phosphate:

♔ Cosmetics: As an emulsifier, stabilizer and thickener, it is widely used in skin care products, makeup and other products. Its gentle nature makes it ideal for people with sensitive skin.

♔ Detergent Products: Potassium cetyl phosphate can be used as a surfactant in detergents, hand soaps, shower gels and other products, and has good cleaning and moisturizing effects.

♔ Industrial Application: In petroleum, textile, printing and dyeing and other industries, potassium cetyl phosphate can be used as an emulsifier, dispersant, etc. to improve production efficiency and product performance.

♔ Pharmaceutical Field: In the pharmaceutical field, potassium cetyl phosphate can be used as the matrix of ointments, creams and other external medicines, and has good permeability and stability.

♔ Other Fields: In addition to the above applications, potassium cetyl phosphate can also be used in pesticides, coatings, papermaking and other industries to exert its unique interface active effect.

Safety:

Potassium Cetyl Phosphate has a structure similar to natural phospholipids and is extremely mild in nature, with almost no irritation to skin and eyes. Good biodegradability, the biodegradation of alkyl phosphate is similar to that of sodium alkyl alcohol sulfate, and can be decomposed into carbon dioxide and phosphate ions.
