ALKEST® TW 60 K
ALKEST® TW 60 K is a paste form mild non-ionic surfactant with very low eye irritation. It can be used as a solubilizing agent in oil-in-water emulsions and as a humectant. The ALKEST® TW line is made up of ethoxylated sorbitan esters and are hydrophilic, having high HLB values. The presence of the polyoxyethylene chain makes the products in the ALKEST® TW line soluble or dispersible in water, which favors their application in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, as dispersants/solubilizers of oils and fragrances, and as co-surfactants and humectants in shampoos, hand soaps, and body washes. ALKEST® SP 60 and ALKEST® SP 80, when used in combination with ALKEST® TW 60 or 80, are excellent emulsifiers for beeswax, paraffin, carnauba and their mixtures, promoting stability and homogeneity of formulations.
