Basic Info
With the rapid improvement of people’s living standards and the continuous expansion of the cosmetics market, consumers not only put forward higher quality requirements for skin care lotion, but also increasingly demanding requirements for product packaging and beauty.
At present, most high-grade skin care lotion on the market are low viscosity lotion, and high-grade hard materials are used as packaging containers, such as glass, metal and other materials. Among them, Ceteth 25 is an indispensable raw material for the preparation of these cosmetics.
Compared to water-based products, Ceteth 25 contains more oil, making the skin feel more delicate, moisturized, and effective in moisturizing; Compared with face cream products, the viscosity of Ceteth 25 is lower, and it is not easy to produce a thick and sticky feeling.
However, when other conditions remain constant, the lower the viscosity of the system, the faster the liquid settling rate, and the more unstable the system.
Therefore, the stability of Ceteth 25 is difficult to control, and the technical requirements are relatively high. Ceteth 25, as an indispensable raw material in cosmetics preparation, has a higher oil content compared to water-based products, providing finer, more moisturizing and hydrating effects.
Ceteth 25 has a wide range of applications in industry, and its most important characteristic is stability. The stability of Ceteth 25 is mainly determined by the strength of oil-water interface facial mask. Interfacial rheology is a science that studies the flow and deformation of facial mask under external forces.
Interfacial viscosity is an important property of oil-water interfacial facial mask. Its size is related to the compactness of film forming molecules, the interaction force of film forming molecules and whether there is structure formation.
The viscosity of Ceteth 25 is mostly controlled within a certain range, generally ranging from 3000 to 6000 mPa · s. When the viscosity of Ceteth 25 is too high, it will not pour out in a hard container, making it unusable for consumers; When its viscosity is too low, the fluidity of Ceteth 25 is too good and inconvenient for consumers to use.

Product Packaging
Ceteth-25 is an important non-ionic surfactant belonging to the cetearyl ether class of compounds. It is prepared by addition polymerization of cetearyl alcohol and ethylene oxide, with the number “25” representing its degree of polymerization, which is the number of repeating units of ethylene oxide in the molecular structure. Ceteth-25 is commonly used in skin care products, shampoo, lotion and other daily chemical products, as well as in pharmaceutical, industrial, agricultural and other fields.
1、 Chemical properties of cetearyl alcohol polyether-25
Cetearyl alcohol polyether-25 is a non-ionic surfactant with excellent emulsifying and wetting properties due to its hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups in the molecular structure. The hydrophobic part of the Ceteth-25 structure is cetearyl alcohol (long-chain alkyl alcohol), and the hydrophilic part is a polyethylene glycol segment. This dual structure enables Ceteth-25 to stabilize in both water and oil phases, facilitating the formation of a uniform emulsion.
Ceteth-25 has a relatively large molecular weight and moderate polyether chain length, therefore it has mild surface activity and can effectively reduce liquid surface tension and improve emulsification effect. It is stable within a wide pH range and has good heat resistance, so it can still maintain good emulsification effect when used at higher temperatures.
2、 The function and application of cetearyl alcohol polyether-25
Emulsifier: Ceteth-25 is commonly used as a water in oil (O/W) emulsifier in cosmetics. It can stabilize the emulsion system, evenly mix the oil and water phases, and prevent delamination. Therefore, it is widely used in face cream, lotion and other products to bring a smooth feeling of application and fresh skin.
Solvent enhancer: Ceteth-25 has a good solubilization effect and can stably disperse some water insoluble ingredients (such as essence, essential oil, etc.) in the aqueous phase. This makes it an ideal choice among perfume, hair conditioners and other water-based products to help maintain product uniformity.
Lubricant and conditioner: Ceteth-25 also serves as a lubricant and conditioner in hair care and skin care products, making the skin softer and hair smoother and easier to comb after use. It can reduce dryness and enhance the user experience of the product.
Thickener: In some formulations, Ceteth-25 can be used in combination with other thickeners to give the product a more ideal viscosity and help form stable paste or emulsion products.
Stabilizer: The stabilizing effect of Ceteth-25 allows it to maintain formula uniformity and prevent precipitation and stratification when used in some immiscible ingredients.
3、 Safety and Environmental Protection of Cetearyl Polyether 25
Ceteth-25 is relatively safe to use in cosmetics and personal care products, has low skin sensitivity, and is gentle and friendly to the skin and hair, making it commonly used in sensitive skin products.
