General information

CESTOPAL 20 M is a nonionic emulsifier with the INCI name Ceteareth-20. It is available as flakes and is intended for cosmetic oil-in-water emulsions.

Panzeri recommends combining it with co-emulsifiers such as Glyceryl Stearate and describes a light, neutral feel. In practice, CESTOPAL 20 M can be part of an emulsifying system for creams and lotions. Final consistency and sensory performance depend on the oil phase, other emulsifiers and manufacturing process.

Value for formulators

O/W emulsification — for systems with a continuous aqueous phase.
Combination with Glyceryl Stearate — scope to tailor the emulsifying system to the formula.
Light, neutral feel described by the manufacturer — a sensory direction to assess in the finished base.
Skin and hair care applications — one emulsifier for different cosmetic formats.

Application

Face and body creams: as part of an O/W emulsifying system, combined with suitable co-emulsifiers and consistency factors.

Body milks and sprayable lotions: for developing fluid O/W systems. For spray formats, test viscosity, stability and compatibility with the chosen dispenser.

Hair care creams: as an emulsifier combining water and oil ingredients. Evaluate conditioning and anti-frizz performance for the complete formula.
