What Are Emulsion Stabilizing Ingredients?
Propanediol Distearate has emulsion stabilizing characteristics.
Emulsion stabilizing ingredients help to mix two or more ingredients that generally don't mix well, such as oil and water, to create a stable mixture. They work by coating the oil droplets in the mixture, preventing them from sticking together and separating over time.
Emulsion stabilizing ingredients make the product last longer and more effectively and ensure it doesn't look strange or separate on the shelf. By helping emulsify, these ingredients help make the product more effective and stable over time.
