Lauryl-Myristyl Alcohol is a Fatty Alcohol comprised of a mixture of C12 (Lauryl) and C14 (Myristyl) Alcohol. At room temperature C12-14 Alcohol takes the form of a white, crystalline solid that is insoluble in water. Lauryl-Myristyl Alcohol offers many useful characteristics such as being a good Emulsifier, Emollient, Stabiliser and Thickener. As well as this, C12-14 Alcohol can be used as an intermediate in the production of other materials. Such traits lend itself to a number of applications in both the Personal Care and Industrial sectors:

• Cosmetics and Skincare – Lotions, Makeup, and Hair Products
• Homecare – Light and Heavy-Duty Detergents, Laundry Pre-Softeners, Hard Surface Cleaners and Disinfectants.
• Agriculture – Pesticides and Soil Conditions
• Industrial – Metal Cleaners, Resins, Textile Processing, Pulp and Paper Processing, Wastepaper Deinking and Metalworking Surface Lubricant

Cetearyl Alcohol (Cetostearyl Alcohol) is a Fatty Alcohol comprised of a mixture C16 (Cetyl) and C18 (Stearyl) Alcohol that can be present at varying ratios (30:70 / 50:50). At room temperature C16-18 Alcohol takes the form of a white, waxy solid or flakes that are insoluble in water. Cetearyl Alcohol offers many useful characteristics such as being a good Emulsifier, Emollient, Opacifier, Stabiliser and Thickener which lends itself to a number of applications in both the Personal Care and Industrial sectors:

• Cosmetics and Skincare – Lotions, Makeup, and Hair Products
• Homecare – Light and Heavy-Duty Detergents, Laundry Pre-Softeners, Hard Surface Cleaners and Disinfectants.
• Agriculture – Pesticides and Soil Conditions
• Industrial – Metal Cleaners, Resins, Textile Processing, Pulp and Paper Processing, Wastepaper Deinking and Metalworking Surface Lubricant

Stearyl Alcohol is a C18 Alcohol that takes the form of white, waxy granules or flakes that are insoluble in water. Stearyl Alcohol offers many useful characteristics such as being a good Emollient, Emulsifier and Thickener which lends itself to a number of applications in both the Personal Care and Industrial sectors:

• Cosmetics and Skincare – Lotions, Makeup, Shampoos and Perfumes.
• Homecare – Light and Heavy-Duty Detergents, Laundry Pre-Softeners, Hard Surface Cleaners and Disinfectants.
• Agriculture – Pesticides and Soil Conditions
• Industrial – Metal Cleaners, Resins, Textile Processing, Pulp and Paper Processing, Wastepaper Deinking and Metalworking Surface Lubricant.

Cetyl Alcohol is a C16 Alcohol that takes the form of a white, waxy solid at room temperature. Stearyl Alcohol offers many useful characteristics such as being a good Emollient, Emulsifier, Thickener and Surfactant which lends itself to a number of applications in both the Personal Care and Industrial sectors:

• Cosmetics and Skincare – Lotions, Makeup, Shamppons and Soap Gels.
