  • Applications

    Polyglyceryl-2 Distearate, CAS 63119-59-5, is a polyglycerin ester of stearic acid that functions primarily as a nonionic surfactant and emulsifier, and as an emollient/conditioning agent in cosmetic and personal-care formulations. In products such as creams, lotions, cleansers, and hair-care products, it helps improve texture and emulsion stability. Other applications include use as a surfactant/emulsifier in household cleaning formulations; as a conditioning/emollient additive in hair and skin care; as an emulsifier and dispersant for pigment suspensions in coatings and inks; and as an excipient in topical pharmaceutical formulations, subject to local regulations.
