Product Application

Personal Care & Cosmetics (Core Application):

Co-Emulsifier & Texture Modifier:​ Used in blends with cetyl and stearyl alcohols​ in O/W (oil-in-water) creams and lotions. It helps optimize the liquid crystal network structure, reducing the "waxy" and heavy feel​ of the product, imparting a lighter, more spreadable, non-greasy, and fresh finish​ while maintaining system stability.

Thickener & Stabilizer:​ An effective thickener and stabilizer​ in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers, enhancing product viscosity and enriching lather quality.

Emollient:​ Forms a lightweight protective film on the skin, providing a soft, smooth feel, typically with less greasiness than C16/C18 alcohols.

Personal Care Products:​ Widely used in skin creams, lotions, sunscreens, shaving creams, deodorants, and color cosmetics (e.g., lipsticks, foundations) to improve application properties and final skin feel.

Surfactant Industry:

Intermediate:​ A key raw material for synthesizing nonionic surfactants​ (e.g., myristyl alcohol ethoxylates) and anionic surfactants​ (e.g., sodium myristyl sulfate). These surfactants offer good foaming, emulsifying, and cleansing properties, commonly used in personal cleansers.

Other Industrial Uses:

Lubricant & Additive:​ Used as a lubricant and additive​ in metalworking fluids, textile auxiliaries, and plastic processing.

Defoamer Component:​ A component in defoamer formulations.

Intermediate:​ Used in synthesizing fragrances, pharmaceuticals, and other fine chemicals.
