LEARN / MATERIAL FUNCTION
Explore existing library materials with a source-linked emulsifier assignment.
These assignments describe a documented material function. The individual source may concern a particular supplier grade or application. Open a material’s evidence before using it in a formula.
20 source-linked library assignments. Matching a function does not establish compatibility, safety or a greener replacement.
CAS 68515-73-1
Recorded function: Cleaning / detergency; foaming; wetting; emulsification.
Supplier-grade/general function only; this does not establish compatibility with a starter formula, lower hazard, an EcoSafe rating or a verified environmental improvement.
CAS 4696-56-4
Recorded function: Fatty-acid salt and processing-additive research reference
Calcium laurate functions as an anticaking agent, emulsifier and lubricant/release aid. FDA identifies these technical effects; Health Canada lists non-medicinal anticaking and emulsifying roles.
CAS 36653-82-4
Recorded function: Fatty-alcohol raw material, emulsion stabilizer, co-emulsifier and thickener
Cetyl alcohol, or 1-hexadecanol, is a fatty-alcohol raw material for surfactants and an emulsion stabilizer, co-emulsifier and thickener. Kao identifies use in creams, lotions, lipstick consistency and hair-conditioning formulations.
CAS 112-02-7
Recorded function: Cationic surfactant and conditioning ingredient
Documented general function only; supplier-grade and application scope remain unchanged.
CAS 110-97-4
Recorded function: Amino-alcohol intermediate for formulation and chemical processing
Documented general function only; supplier-grade and application scope remain unchanged.
CAS 123-94-4
Recorded function: Emulsifier and processing additive; commercial glyceride grades
Nonionic emulsifier and consistency modifier. Commercial glyceryl monostearate usually contains other glycerides or fatty-acid homologues; distinguish CAS 123-94-4 identity from the actual formulated grade.
