Suzhou Myristyl Alcohol Manufacturer, Tetradecanol Surfactant Synthesis, Thickening and Defoaming Combined
In personal care products, myristyl alcohol serves as a structural component in creams and ointments: as an emulsion stabilizer, it enhances the texture of the cream and imparts a smooth, lubricating sensation to the skin; in shampoos, it acts as a thickener and defoamer. Industrially, it is used in the synthesis of anionic surfactants, wetting agents, and cold-resistant plasticizers for plastics. Its derivative, isopropyl myristate (IPM), is a lightweight oil base for high-end cosmetics, offering excellent spreadability and breathability, and is used in product lines such as lotions, lipsticks, and sunscreens.
