Thickening effect: It can increase the viscosity of the system, making the product thicker. For example, adding thickening emulsifier to lotion can make the originally thin lotion more textured. For example, some hand creams, if there is no suitable thickening emulsifier, may be too thin to adhere to the skin. This situation can be improved by using thickening emulsifier.
Emulsification: promote the formation of a stable lotion system in the insoluble oil and water phases. In cosmetics, oil and water are common ingredients. Thickening emulsifiers can make oil evenly dispersed in water or water evenly dispersed in oil, prevent oil-water separation, and ensure the stability and uniformity of products. Cosmetics such as face cream, lotion, etc. need thickening emulsifiers to maintain their stable texture.
