Tween™ 28-LQ-(AP)

Tween™ 28-LQ-(AP) (PEG-80 Sorbitan Laurate (and) Water) is an exceptionally gentle emulsifier renowned for its versatility in various cosmetic applications. With a high hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) of 19.1, it effectively serves as an oil-in-water emulsifier, promoting stability and consistency in formulations. Its nonionic nature ensures compatibility with both anionic and cationic surfactants, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of products. Tween 28 excels in facilitating the smooth spreading of shampoos and conditioners, enhancing their application and overall user experience. Often combined with other mild thickeners, this ingredient is particularly favored in formulating baby shampoos, where gentleness and efficacy are paramount.
