Triethanolamine (TEA): A Versatile Emulsifier and pH Adjuster for Cosmetic Formulations

Elevate your cosmetic creations with our high-quality Triethanolamine (TEA), a crucial ingredient renowned for its exceptional emulsifying and pH-adjusting properties. This versatile compound is a key component in a wide range of personal care products, ensuring stable emulsions and balanced formulations. Our TEA is carefully processed to meet the highest standards of purity and quality, making it an ideal choice for your cosmetic manufacturing needs.

Application Options and Areas of Use in Cosmetics:

Triethanolamine plays a vital role in various cosmetic applications, contributing to the stability and effectiveness of numerous products.

• Emulsification:
  • TEA acts as an emulsifier, helping to blend oil and water-based ingredients into stable and consistent emulsions. This is essential for creams, lotions, and other products where a smooth, uniform texture is desired.
• pH Adjustment:
  • TEA is an effective pH adjuster, allowing formulators to control the acidity or alkalinity of cosmetic products. Maintaining the proper pH balance is crucial for skin compatibility and product stability.
• Surfactant:
  • It can function as a surfactant, aiding in the cleansing action of products like facial cleansers and shampoos.
• Creams and Lotions:
  • TEA stabilizes emulsions, ensuring that creams and lotions maintain their desired consistency and texture over time.
• Cleansing Products:
  • In facial cleansers, body washes, and shampoos, TEA helps to create a rich lather and enhances the product's cleansing ability.
• Sunscreens:
  • TEA can be used to neutralize certain acidic ingredients in sunscreen formulations, contributing to their overall stability.
• Hair Care Products:
  • In hair care products like shampoos and conditioners, TEA helps to adjust the pH and enhance the product's performance.
• Shaving Creams:
  • TEA is a common component in shaving creams, as it helps to create a stable foam and softens the beard.

Key Benefits for Cosmetic Formulations:

• Effective Emulsification: Creates stable and consistent emulsions.
• Precise pH Adjustment: Allows for accurate control of product pH.
• Enhanced Product Stability: Improves the shelf life and performance of cosmetic formulations.
• Versatile Application: Suitable for a wide range of cosmetic products.
