Polyglycerin-2-triisostearate is produced by the esterification of isostearic acid and glycerol under specific reaction conditions, including controlled temperature, catalyst presence, and reaction duration.
Advantage
1. As an emollient, it functions to fill the gaps between dead skin cells and forms a protective barrier on the skin surface, preventing allergens, bacteria, and irritants from penetrating deeper layers. It also maintains skin hydration for a softer, smoother, and healthier appearance.
2. As a surfactant, it reduces surface tension between product components and effectively removes dirt, oil, and impurities from the skin surface.
3. As an emulsifier, it provides stability to the product formulation.
4. It exhibits strong dispersing ability for inorganic pigments and significant antioxidant stability.
