This material is in solid white bead form and one of the most used ingredients in cosmetic and personal-care product formulation. You will find this on the ingredient listing of a vast majority of your everyday use items such as hair products, moisturizers, soap, and make-up. Cetyl alcohol is used to thicken oil in water emulsions, act as an emollient, and yield a more opaque, stabilized foam. It is a multipurpose additive that can help control the viscosity of a product and also assist in raising the melting point so that a product such as lip stick, for example, binds to the skin. Our bulk cetyl alcohol carries RSPO-MB (Mass Balance) certification, one of four certification levels offered by the RSPO which monitors the trade of sustainably certified and non-sustainably certified palm oil. The Mass Balance certification allows the overall production of both RSPO and non-RSPO certified palm oil to maintain an even balance, hence its Mass Balance designation, with administrative traceability of the input and mixing of RSPO and non-RSPO certified palm oil, but at controlled quantities. view less
