  • Applications

    Cetyloxypropyl glyceryl methoxypropyl myristamide (CAS 185740-18-5) is a fatty-ester–based, nonionic surfactant commonly used as an emulsifier and emollient in formulation work. In cosmetics and personal care, it acts as an emulsifier and conditioning agent. In household and industrial cleaners, it serves as a surface-active additive to improve wetting, dispersion and formulation stability. In polymers/plastics and coatings/inks, it can function as a processing aid or compatibility additive to improve blendability and stabilize formulations. In adhesives, it may act as a surfactant/compatibility additive to enhance dispersion and adhesion performance of resin systems.
