Description

A fatty alcohol mixture, preferred for its stability in emulsion formulations.

Kolliwax® CSA 50 is a white to pale-yellow, wax-like, 50:50 blend of cetyl and stearyl alcohol; supplied as free-flowing micro pearls. With a raw material base of coconut oil, palm kernel oil, palm oil, and/or palm stearine, it functions as an O/W co-emulsifier and structure-building consistency factor for lotion and cream formulations. Kolliwax® CSA 50 is suitable for emulsions & creams, ointments, gels and foams. It is also a viscosity regulator and is used in suppository masses. Kolliwax® CS 50 can be used in combination with fatty alcohols and other consistency factors.

Why use Kolliwax® CSA 50?

  • Compatible with most natural vegetable and animal waxes
  • Creates a more stable matrix, when formulated with emulsifier and water
  • Slightly broader melting point window than Kolliwax® CA and Kolliwax® SA
