Colafax Cpo

Cola®Fax CPO INCI Designation: Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Hydrogenated Palm Glycerides CAS # 241-768-1, 91744-66-0

DESCRIPTION Cola®Fax CPO allows the preparation of homogenous, stable, light skin care and sun care emulsions. It is an analogue of the natural phospholipids in the skin (e.g. lecithin) and provides a smooth and soft skin feel. It can easily be added either to the oil phase or the aqueous phase of the emulsion. Cola®Fax CPO does not require a separate neutralization step and it can be used over a wide pH range (4-9), but preferably at the acidic pH level of the skin. It shows very good emulsifying ability with both polar and non-polar oils and is especially suitable for manufacturing emulsions with a high oil content. Cola®Fax CPO works well for formulations containing water soluble sun screen filters and micronized pigments. It provides excellent stability and skin feel even for sun care emulsions with very high sun protection factors (50+). Cola®Fax CPO is based on vegetable and mineral raw materials; has high purity, free of undesired by-products. It is free of ethylene oxide and cetyl chloride and has a low usage concentration.
