Sunflower Wax

Sunflower Wax (Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Wax) is a natural vegetable wax derived from the winterization of sunflower oil, celebrated for its unique properties and versatility in cosmetic formulations. Characterized by its long chain, saturated esters, this ingredient offers a desirable hardness and crystalline structure, making it an excellent choice for stabilizing creams, balms, and emulsions. With a melting point of 74-77°C (165-171°F) and a saponification value of 78-92 mg KOH/g, Sunflower Wax not only enhances the texture and consistency of products but also contributes to their overall performance. Its ability to provide a smooth application while acting as a protective barrier makes it a valuable addition to any skincare or cosmetic line.
