Ceteareth-20 acts as a surfactant in your skincare and hair care products.
The main function of a surfactant is to lower the surface tension between 2 liquids or solid-liquid, which allows them to mix together such as water and grime-dirt.
This action is responsible for the cleansing property in your shampoos, conditioners, soaps, skin cleansers, body washes, face washes etc.

Ceteareth-20 is used alone or it can also be used along with other emulsifiers for providing stability to the formulation.
Ceteareth-20 helps to bind all the active ingredients together in your skincare and haircare formulations, thereby making your formula more stable.

As Ceteareth-20 prevents the active ingredients in the formula from separating, it aids in the even application of the products, which helps to enhance the product performance.
The Cetearyl alcohol in the Ceteareth-20 is derived from natural oil (cetyl and stearyl alcohol) which helps to add thickness to the product, providing stability to the product formulation and is responsible for its emollient property.
These are some of the beneficial properties of Ceteareth-20, due to which it is extensively being used in the production of many skincare and hair care products you use daily. It is considered to be a key ingredient in many surfactant-based formulations

USES:

FUNCTION(S) OF CETEARETH-80 IN COSMETIC PRODUCTS:
CLEANING:
Cleans skin, hair or teeth

SURFACTANT :
Detergent substance for cleaning skin, hair and/or teeth

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON USE OF CETEARETH-80 IN COSMETICS:
Polyethylene glycols (INCI: PEG-...) are polycondensation products of ethylene glycol or polymerisation products of ethylene oxide.
The number attached to the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units in the substance.
The consistency of the PEG derivatives becomes increasingly firm as the degree of polymerization increases.

PEGs with an average molar mass of up to 600 g/mol are liquid, up to 1000 g/mol are waxy and from 4000 g/mol are solid, waxy substances.
By mixing solid and liquid components, products with a creamy consistency are obtained, which are used as water-free and water-washable bases.
With increasing molar mass, the water solubility and hygroscopicity (moisture absorption capacity) of the polyethylene glycols decrease.

Surfactants are so-called washing-active substances and are of great importance in cosmetics for cleaning the skin and hair.
Surfactants (from the Latin "tensus" = tense) are substances that, thanks to their molecular structure, are able to reduce the surface tension of a liquid.
In this way, two liquids that are actually not miscible, such as oil and water, can be finely mixed.

Because of their properties, surfactants are used in many different ways in cosmetics:
They can clean, create foam, and also act as emulsifiers and mix substances with one another.
In shampoos, shower gels and soaps, for example, surfactants are used to wash away fat and dirt particles from the body with water.

Surfactants are also used in toothpaste.
The surfactants used in cosmetic products are mainly produced synthetically on the basis of plant-based raw materials.
Surfactants are often used in combination in order to meet all desired requirements - such as dirt removal and foam formation combined with good skin compatibility - in the best possible way.

A product with good cleaning properties and equally good skin compatibility is obtained through the skillful combination of a tenside that is unfavorable to the skin but very good dirt-dissolving properties with a very mild, skin-friendly tenside.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION OF CETEARYL ALCOHOL ON USE IN COSMETICS:
Cetearyl alcohol (cetylstearyl alcohol) is a mixture of cetyl alcohol (hexadecanol) and stearyl alcohol (octadecanol).
This concerns so-called fatty alcohols since the two components are frequently produced by a reduction of the corresponding fatty acids.



WHAT IS MASS BALANCE?
Cetearyl alcohol almost always comes from palm oil, as it is nearly impossible to source cetearyl alcohol from other plants. There is no producer that will guarantee cetearyl alcohol comes from non-palm sources.
It is also difficult to make emulsions without cetearyl or cetyl/stearyl alcohol.
Therefore, it is critical to use cetearyl alcohol from Mass Balance palm certified sources as a step towards sustainable palm use.
Learn more about sustainable palm oil and mass balance here.



WHAT DOES CETEARYL ALCOHOL DO IN MY HAIR PRODUCTS?
Cetearyl alcohol is a chemical produced by mixing two fatty alcohols: cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol.
Both components occur naturally in animals or plants.

Cetearyl alcohol is one of the most important ingredients in cosmetics.
Cetearyl Alcohol is an emulsifier, which means it prevents your product from separating into oils and liquids.
In addition to that, Cetearyl Alcohol is great to make the texture of the product thicker, smoother, and nicer to touch.



IS CETEARYL ALCOHOL THE SAME AS CETYL ALCOHOL?
Cetearyl alcohol, as we described before, consists of two different fatty alcohols.
The names sound similar — cetearyl and cetyl — but this is where similarities end.
Addressing the most popular question we get: no, you can’t use cetyl alcohol instead of cetearyl alcohol.
The former needs an additional ingredient to activate.



IS CETEARYL ALCOHOL BAD FOR HAIR?
You definitely heard at least one that you should avoid skin and hair products containing alcohol.
That’s right, you should.
Lots of different alcohols, like ethanol, are drying for your skin and hair.
Cetearyl alcohol is a different story.

Cetearyl alcohol, being a fatty alcohol, has a completely different chemical structure and doesn’t “behave” like regular alcohol.
Cetearyl Alcohol doesn’t dry and tighten the skin, doesn’t damage your hair, and is not likely to cause irritation.
According to the FDA, even products labeled as “Alcohol-free” are allowed to include cetearyl alcohol.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has also deemed this ingredient safe to use.



BENEFITS OF CETEARYL ALCOHOL FOR SKIN AND HAIR CARE:
Cetearyl alcohol is a multifunctional ingredient that improves the feel, performance and stability of products.
For skincare products, the addition of cetearyl alcohol makes luxurious, rich formulas, reducing potential stickiness from oil and butters and creating smooth, light, moisturisers.
In haircare, Cetearyl Alcohol is an important ingredient for increasing spreadability and slip which allows products to glide through hair.



HOW TO USE CETEARYL ALCOHOL IN FORMULATIONS:
Cetearyl alcohol is commonly used as a co-emulsifier and thickener to help stabilise emulsion.
Cetearyl Alcohol can also be used to supplement the oil phase by reducing the amount of heavy emollients and improving the texture of products.
Substituting a percentage of the butter in a formula with cetearyl alcohol will give the moisturiser a pleasant skin-feel, whilst still maintaining its body and texture.



CETYL ALCOHOL VS. CETEARYL ALCOHOL:
The main difference between cetyl alcohol and cetearyl alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas Cetearyl Alcohol is made up of a few different chemical compounds.
If you use cetyl alcohol instead of Cetearyl Alcohol your finished product will have less body, and feel slightly thinner.
However, both alcohols can be used as thickeners and stabilisers.



WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CETYL ALCOHOL AND CETEARYL ALCOHOL:
The key difference between cetyl alcohol and Cetearyl Alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas Cetearyl Alcohol is a mixture of chemical compounds.
Cetyl alcohol is a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
Cetearyl Alcohol, on the other hand, is a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.

What is Cetyl Alcohol?
Cetyl alcohol is a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
It occurs as a waxy white solid or in the form of flakes at room temperature.
This substance has a very faint, waxy odour as well.

The name of this compound comes from the term “Cetus,” which means “whale oil” in Latin.
Cetyl alcohol was first isolated from whale oil.
Cetyl alcohol was first prepared from sperm whale oil by the French chemist Michel Chevreul.

He heated the spermaceti (a waxy material obtained from whale oil) in the presence of caustic potash (potassium hydroxide).
This heat treatment produced flakes of cetyl alcohol which were left behind for cooling.
However, the modern method of cetyl alcohol production involves the reduction of palmitic acid obtained from palm oil.

This substance is insoluble in water and very soluble in ether, benzene, and chloroform.
It is also soluble in acetone and slightly soluble in alcohol.
There are many uses of cetyl alcohol, including its use in the cosmetic industry as an opacifier in shampoos, as an emollient, emulsifier, or thickening agent in skin creams and lotions.

Further, this substance is useful as a lubricant for nuts and bolts.
It is an active ingredient in some liquid pool covers, as well.
Apart from that, we can use this substance as a non-ionic co-surfactant in emulsion applications.

Some people can be sensitive to cetyl alcohol, mainly those suffering from eczema.
However, this sensitivity comes mainly due to the impurities that are present in cetyl alcohol.
But sometimes, this substance is used in some medications as well.

What is Cetearyl Alcohol?
Cetearyl Alcohol is a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.
The chemical formula for this mixture of compounds can be given as CH3(CH2)nCH2OH, where n can be a variable number typically ranging from 14 to 16.
The other names for this compound mixture include cetyl-stearyl alcohol, ceto-stearyl alcohol, and cetyl/stearyl alcohol.

This mixture of compounds is important as an emulsion stabilizer, opacifying agent, and foam-boosting surfactant.
It is also important as an aqueous and non-aqueous viscosity-increasing agent.
Cetearyl alcohol leaves an emollient feel on the skin and is useful in water-in-oil emulsions, oil-in-water emulsions, and anhydrous formulations.
Commonly, this mixture is used in hair conditioners and other hair products.

What is the Difference Between Cetyl Alcohol and Cetearyl Alcohol?
Cetyl alcohol can be described as a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
Cetearyl Alcohol or cetearyl alcohol can be described as a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.

The key difference between cetyl alcohol and Cetearyl Alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas Cetearyl Alcohol is a mixture of chemical compounds.
Cetyl-stearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol in solid waxy pastille form, white in color with a neutral aroma.
This raw material, also referred to as C16-18, cetostearyl, or cetearyl alcohol, is a staple ingredient in cosmetic and personal-care formulations.

Through the combination of cetyl and stearyl fatty alcohols, as it name suggests, this ingredient is created and most known to stabilize oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions, add opacity to a product, increase or stabilize the level of foam, and raise the viscosity of a liquid.
Fatty alcohols, unlike ethanol alcohols, are natural emollients and preserve moisture in the skin and hair.
Cetyl-stearyl alcohol is used in the manufacturing of a wide range of cosmetic such as body lotions, moisturizers, creams, shampoo, conditioner, mascara, lipstick, hair dyes, to name a few.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION OF CETEARYL ALCOHOL COSMETIC GRADE ON USE IN COSMETICS:
Cetearyl Alcohol cosmetic grade (cetylstearyl alcohol) is a mixture of cetyl alcohol (hexadecanol) and stearyl alcohol (octadecanol).
This concerns so-called fatty alcohols since the two components are frequently produced by a reduction of the corresponding fatty acids.



WHAT IS CETEARYL ALCOHOL COSMETIC GRADE MASS BALANCE?
Cetearyl Alcohol cosmetic grade almost always comes from palm oil, as it is nearly impossible to source Cetearyl Alcohol cosmetic grade from other plants. There is no producer that will guarantee Cetearyl Alcohol cosmetic grade comes from non-palm sources.
It is also difficult to make emulsions without cetearyl or cetyl/stearyl alcohol.
Therefore, it is critical to use Cetearyl Alcohol cosmetic grade from Mass Balance palm certified sources as a step towards sustainable palm use.

WHAT IS CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL USED FOR?
Cetostearyl alcohol is usually known as an inactive ingredient because it does not extend help to the therapeutic purposes of a cosmetic product, but mostly just to keep everything together.
Cetostearyl alcohol binds the products together and prevents them from separating.
Uses of Cetostearyl alcohol extend further in providing thickness and much-needed bulk to cosmetic and personal care products.

*Skin care:
Cetostearyl alcohol is used in a range of moisturizers and skin lotions because it imparts few moisturizing properties apart from binding the cream together.
Further, Cetostearyl alcohol heals dry skin – making Cetostearyl alcohol skincare quite popular

*Hair care:
Cetostearyl alcohol treats hair to make them soft while trapping in water to hydrate them.
Cetostearyl alcohol is commonly found in shampoos and anti-frizz hair creams.
Is Cetostearyl alcohol bad for hair?
The answer is no, as it is not drying like other types of alcohols



FUNCTIONS OF CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL:
*Emollient:
Cetostearyl alcohol softens and softens the skin
*Emulsifying agent:
Cetostearyl alcohol promotes the formation of intimate mixtures between immiscible liquids by modifying the interfacial tension (water and oil)
*Emulsion Stabilizer:
Cetostearyl alcohol aids the emulsification process and improves emulsion stability and shelf life
*Foam Sinergist:
Cetostearyl alcohol improves the quality of foam produced by increasing one or more of the following properties: volume, texture and/or stability
*Opacifier:
Cetostearyl alcohol reduces the transparency or translucency of cosmetics
*Surfactant:
Cetostearyl alcohol reduces the surface tension of cosmetics and contributes to the even distribution of the product during use
*Viscosity control agent:
Cetostearyl alcohol increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetics



CONCENTRATION AND SOLUBILITY OF CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL:
The recommended concentration of use is 0.5%-10%.
Cetostearyl alcohol is soluble in alcohols and oils and is insoluble in water.



CETYL ALCOHOL VS. CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL:
The main difference between cetyl alcohol and cetearyl alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas cetostearyl alcohol is made up of a few different chemical compounds.
If you use cetyl alcohol instead of cetostearyl alcohol your finished product will have less body, and feel slightly thinner.
However, both alcohols can be used as thickeners and stabilisers.




WHAT DOES CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL DO IN A FORMULATION?
*Bulking
*Skin conditioning
*Smoothing
*Surfactant
*Viscosity controlling



WHAT DOES CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL DO IN SKIN AND HAIR CARE?
Cetostearyl alcohol has emollient properties, which means it softens and smooths the skin and hair.



HOW TO USE CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL FOR HAIR?
As mentioned before Cetostearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol that is used as an emollient, thickening agent, and emulsifier in hair care products.
Cetostearyl alcohol is used in to give stability to the formula and to enhance the texture and feel of the product.
Cetostearyl alcohol has gained popularity and can be seen in most shampoos, conditioners, hair creams, hair mousses, etc. Cetostearyl alcohol does not dry the hair; making it ideal for daily use.
Considering it’s derived from natural components Cetostearyl alcohol is non-toxic and can be safely used on your hair.
This non-drying fatty alcohol, Cetostearyl alcohol, improves the hydration level of the strands whilst reducing frizz, and thus smoothens the hair’s texture.



WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CETYL ALCOHOL AND CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL:
The key difference between cetyl alcohol and cetostearyl alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas cetostearyl alcohol is a mixture of chemical compounds.
Cetyl alcohol is a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
Cetostearyl alcohol, on the other hand, is a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.

What is Cetyl Alcohol?
Cetyl alcohol is a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
It occurs as a waxy white solid or in the form of flakes at room temperature.
This substance has a very faint, waxy odour as well.

The name of this compound comes from the term “Cetus,” which means “whale oil” in Latin.
Cetyl alcohol was first isolated from whale oil.
Cetyl alcohol was first prepared from sperm whale oil by the French chemist Michel Chevreul.

He heated the spermaceti (a waxy material obtained from whale oil) in the presence of caustic potash (potassium hydroxide).
This heat treatment produced flakes of cetyl alcohol which were left behind for cooling.
However, the modern method of cetyl alcohol production involves the reduction of palmitic acid obtained from palm oil.

This substance is insoluble in water and very soluble in ether, benzene, and chloroform.
It is also soluble in acetone and slightly soluble in alcohol.
There are many uses of cetyl alcohol, including its use in the cosmetic industry as an opacifier in shampoos, as an emollient, emulsifier, or thickening agent in skin creams and lotions.

Further, this substance is useful as a lubricant for nuts and bolts.
It is an active ingredient in some liquid pool covers, as well.
Apart from that, we can use this substance as a non-ionic co-surfactant in emulsion applications.

Some people can be sensitive to cetyl alcohol, mainly those suffering from eczema.
However, this sensitivity comes mainly due to the impurities that are present in cetyl alcohol.
But sometimes, this substance is used in some medications as well.

What is Cetostearyl Alcohol?
Cetostearyl alcohol is a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.
The chemical formula for this mixture of compounds can be given as CH3(CH2)nCH2OH, where n can be a variable number typically ranging from 14 to 16.
The other names for this compound mixture include cetyl-stearyl alcohol, ceto-stearyl alcohol, and cetyl/stearyl alcohol.

This mixture of compounds is important as an emulsion stabilizer, opacifying agent, and foam-boosting surfactant.
It is also important as an aqueous and non-aqueous viscosity-increasing agent.
Cetearyl alcohol leaves an emollient feel on the skin and is useful in water-in-oil emulsions, oil-in-water emulsions, and anhydrous formulations.
Commonly, this mixture is used in hair conditioners and other hair products.

What is the Difference Between Cetyl Alcohol and Cetostearyl Alcohol?
Cetyl alcohol can be described as a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
Cetostearyl alcohol or cetearyl alcohol can be described as a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.

The key difference between cetyl alcohol and cetostearyl alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas cetostearyl alcohol is a mixture of chemical compounds.
Cetyl-stearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol in solid waxy pastille form, white in color with a neutral aroma.
This raw material, also referred to as C16-18, cetostearyl, or cetearyl alcohol, is a staple ingredient in cosmetic and personal-care formulations.

Through the combination of cetyl and stearyl fatty alcohols, as it name suggests, this ingredient is created and most known to stabilize oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions, add opacity to a product, increase or stabilize the level of foam, and raise the viscosity of a liquid.
Fatty alcohols, unlike ethanol alcohols, are natural emollients and preserve moisture in the skin and hair.
Cetyl-stearyl alcohol is used in the manufacturing of a wide range of cosmetic such as body lotions, moisturizers, creams, shampoo, conditioner, mascara, lipstick, hair dyes, to name a few.



OTHER INGREDIENTS IT IS COMPATIBLE WITH:
Cetostearyl alcohol works well with most emulsifiers as well as other hair care ingredients.
However, Cetostearyl alcohol should not be used in conjugation with Ceteareth-20 as it is comedogenic and can clog the pores.



PRODUCTS THAT CAN CONTAIN CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL:
Cetostearyl alcohol is an ingredient in many products, such as:
*moisturizing creams and lotions
*shampoo
*conditioners
*exfoliants
*sunscreens
*hair sprays
*hair dyes
*hair mousse
*facial cleansers
*makeup, including foundations, lipstick, and mascara
*shaving creams
*body washes and bar soaps
*baby wipes
*antiperspirants and deodorants
*toothpaste
*nail treatment

*body oil
*mouthwash
*fragrance
*glitter



OCCURRENCE IN OTHER PRODUCTS:
Medicinal products and medical devices to apply at the eye or for wound treatment, technical cooling lubricants, textiles, evaporation protection agents



BACKGROUND INFORMATION OF CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL ON USE IN COSMETICS:
Cetostearyl alcohol (cetylstearyl alcohol) is a mixture of cetyl alcohol (hexadecanol) and stearyl alcohol (octadecanol).
This concerns so-called fatty alcohols since the two components are frequently produced by a reduction of the corresponding fatty acids.



WHAT IS MASS BALANCE?
Cetostearyl alcohol almost always comes from palm oil, as it is nearly impossible to source Cetostearyl alcohol from other plants. There is no producer that will guarantee Cetostearyl alcohol comes from non-palm sources.
It is also difficult to make emulsions without cetearyl or cetyl/stearyl alcohol.
Therefore, it is critical to use Cetostearyl alcohol from Mass Balance palm certified sources as a step towards sustainable palm use.
Learn more about sustainable palm oil and mass balance here.



WHAT DOES CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL DO IN MY HAIR PRODUCTS?
Cetostearyl alcohol is a chemical produced by mixing two fatty alcohols: cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol.
Both components occur naturally in animals or plants.

Cetostearyl alcohol is one of the most important ingredients in cosmetics.
Cetostearyl alcohol is an emulsifier, which means it prevents your product from separating into oils and liquids.
In addition to that, Cetostearyl alcohol is great to make the texture of the product thicker, smoother, and nicer to touch.



IS CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL THE SAME AS CETYL ALCOHOL?
Cetostearyl alcohol, as we described before, consists of two different fatty alcohols.
The names sound similar — cetearyl and cetyl — but this is where similarities end.
Addressing the most popular question we get: no, you can’t use cetyl alcohol instead of Cetostearyl alcohol.
The former needs an additional ingredient to activate.



IS CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL BAD FOR HAIR?
You definitely heard at least one that you should avoid skin and hair products containing alcohol.
That’s right, you should.
Lots of different alcohols, like ethanol, are drying for your skin and hair.
Cetostearyl alcohol is a different story.

Cetostearyl alcohol, being a fatty alcohol, has a completely different chemical structure and doesn’t “behave” like regular alcohol.
Cetostearyl alcohol doesn’t dry and tighten the skin, doesn’t damage your hair, and is not likely to cause irritation.
According to the FDA, even products labeled as “Alcohol-free” are allowed to include Cetostearyl alcohol.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has also deemed this ingredient safe to use.



BENEFITS OF CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL FOR SKIN AND HAIR CARE:
Cetostearyl alcohol is a multifunctional ingredient that improves the feel, performance and stability of products.
For skincare products, the addition of Cetostearyl alcohol makes luxurious, rich formulas, reducing potential stickiness from oil and butters and creating smooth, light, moisturisers.
In haircare, Cetostearyl alcohol is an important ingredient for increasing spreadability and slip which allows products to glide through hair.



HOW TO USE CETOSTEARYL ALCOHOL IN FORMULATIONS:
Cetostearyl alcohol is commonly used as a co-emulsifier and thickener to help stabilise emulsion.
Cetostearyl alcohol can also be used to supplement the oil phase by reducing the amount of heavy emollients and improving the texture of products.
Substituting a percentage of the butter in a formula with Cetostearyl alcohol will give the moisturiser a pleasant skin-feel, whilst still maintaining its body and texture.

Cetostearyl Alcohol Packaging and Shipping Packaging: 25KG/bag Cetostearyl Alcohol Storage Stored in cool dry ventilated place away from fire, heat, light, acids and food materials Cetostearyl Alcohol, cetearyl alcohol or cetylstearyl alcohol is a mixture of fatty alcohols, consisting predominantly of cetyl (16 C) and stearyl alcohols (18 C) and is classified as a fatty alcohol. It is used as an emulsion stabilizer, opacifying agent, and foam boosting surfactant, as well as an aqueous and nonaqueous viscosity-increasing agent. It imparts an emollient feel to the skin and can be used in water-in-oil emulsions, oil-in-water emulsions, and anhydrous formulations. It is commonly used in hair conditioners and other hair products.If you’ve ever used lotions, shampoos, or conditioners, you may have noticed they include a chemical called Cetostearyl Alcohol. The good news is that Cetostearyl Alcohol isn’t “bad” for you, your skin, or your hair. Most importantly, Cetostearyl Alcohol is very different from “regular” alcohols, like ethanol.Cetostearyl Alcohol is a chemical found in cosmetic products. It’s a white, waxy substance made from cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol, both fatty alcohols. They’re found in animals and plants, like coconut and palm oil. They can also be made in a laboratory.Cetostearyl Alcohol has 16 carbon atoms. Stearyl alcohol has 18. Cetearyl alcohol is a combination of the two, so it has 34 carbon atoms. Its molecular formula is C34H72O2.Cetostearyl Alcohol isn’t the only fatty alcohol used in cosmetic products. Other examples include cetyl alcohol, lanolin, oleyl alcohol, and stearyl alcohol.However, fatty alcohols, like Cetostearyl Alcohol, don’t have the same effect on the skin as other alcohols due to their chemical structure.The chemical makeup of Cetostearyl Alcohol is different from more commonly known alcohols. In Cetostearyl Alcohol, the alcohol group (-OH) is attached to a very long chain of hydrocarbons (fats). This feature allows fatty alcohols to trap water and provides a soothing feel to the skin.The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has concluded that fatty alcohols, including cetearyl alcohol, are safe for use in cosmetic products. In clinical studies, Cetostearyl Alcohol was found to have no significant toxicity and was non-mutagenic. A mutagen is a chemical agent that changes your DNA. DNA changes can cause certain diseases, such as cancer.It was also found not to irritate the skin. According to the FDATrusted Source, even cosmetic products labeled “alcohol free” are allowed to contain Cetostearyl Alcohol and other fatty alcohols. Cetostearyl Alcohol is also included on the FDA list of safe and permitted food additives.As with many skin care products, there’s a small risk of allergic reaction to Cetostearyl Alcohol. A 2007 study confirmed five cases of allergy to Cetostearyl Alcohol, but reactions to other chemical allergens also occurred in all of these cases.Cetostearyl Alcohol is used to help soften the skin and hair and to thicken and stabilize cosmetic products, such as lotions and hair products. As an emollient, Cetostearyl Alcohol is considered an effective ingredient for soothing and healing dry skin.Unless you have very sensitive skin, you probably don’t need to avoid products containing Cetostearyl Alcohol. Not only is it considered safe and nontoxic for use on the skin and hair, but it’s also not drying or irritating like other types of alcohol. Due to its chemical structure, Cetostearyl Alcohol is even permitted by the FDA as an ingredient in products labeled “alcohol-free.Cetostearyl Alcohol (CH3(CH2)nOH) is a mixture of cetyl and stearyl alcohols that can come from vegetable or synthetic sources. It is classified as a fatty alcohol. Cetostearyl Alcohol is a white, waxy, solid material in the form of flakes. It is oil soluble, but it is not water-soluble. In the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry, Cetostearyl Alcohol functions as an emulsion stabilizer; opacifying agent; surfactant - foam booster; and viscosity increasing agent. It is often used in creams and lotions. It has a melting point of 122°F (50°C) and a boiling point: 480.2°F (249°C).Oil-in-water emulsions used in many pharmaceutical creams are not stabilized by the surfactant mechanical properties but rather stabilized by forming a gel network consisting of the structure-forming agents such as stearyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, Cetostearyl Alcohol, etc. Cetostearyl Alcohol is the combination of cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol.In these emulsions (o/w) the oil phase is neither required for the delivery of water-soluble drugs nor for the gel formation but acts as a reservoir for the Cetostearyl Alcohol and is responsible for sensory characteristics of the formulation such as opacity. Cetostearyl Alcohol and a hydrophilic surfactant are the primary structure-forming excipients used in semisolid dosage form, hence it is necessary to check for (1) the interactions and crystalline phase transition between them as it can change the semisolid nature of the dosage form (cream, gel, ointment, suppository), (2) physical properties, (3) drug release, and (4) pharmaceutical elegance (Narang and Boddu, 2015).Emulsifying ointment is made from emulsifying wax (Cetostearyl Alcohol and sodium lauryl sulphate) and paraffins. Aqueous cream is an oil-in-water emulsion of emulsifying ointment.They are difficult to remove except with oil or detergents, and are messy and inconvenient, especially on hairy skin. Paraffin ointment contains beeswax, paraffins and Cetostearyl Alcohol.Another group of alcohols found in nature are the fatty alcohols, which are derived from saturated vegetable fats such as coconut oil and palm oil.These have the appearance of solid white fatty waxes and are beneficial to both skin and hair, containing fatty acids that are highly compatible with human cell physiology.Examples include Cetyl alcohol and Cetearyl alcohol, the latter of which we use in our hair conditioners for its nourishing and emollient properties.As the above examples hopefully illustrate, many different compounds make up the group known as 'alcohols', and different alcohols possess widely differing properties.Some alcohols can have potentially harmful effects (i.e. ethanol) and must be used with caution in personal care products, whereas others (i.e. cetearyl alcohol) are beneficial and are used as very effective nourishing and conditioning agents.Cetostearyl Alcohol is a mixture of cetyl and stearyl alcohols that can be derived naturally or synthetically. It is a white, waxy solid. It acts as an emollient, texture enhancer, foam stabilizer. It is widely used in cosmetics, especially in skin lotions and creams.Cetostearyl Alcohol (also known as Cetearyl alcohol) is actually a mixture of cetyl (C16) and stearyl alcohols (C18). It comes from the extraction of vegetable oils such as palm oil.

Cetostearyl Alcohol has a wide range of applications in cosmetic industries. Cetostearyl Alcohol imparts a soothing feel to the skin and can be utilized along with water-in-oil emulsions or an oil-in-water emulsion. Cetostearyl Alcohol plays a pivotal role in the formation of anhydrous. Cetostearyl Alcohol is widely used as the main ingredient for hair conditioners and other hair care products.Based on geographies, the global Cetostearyl Alcohol market is segmented into seven regions including North America, Latin America, Europe, CIS & Russia, Japan, APEJ (the Asia Pacific excluding Japan) and MEA. Among the above-mentioned countries, Europe is estimated to account for a significant market share due to its dominance in the global cosmetics market.

It is used as an emulsion stabilizer, opacifying agent, and foam boosting surfactant, as well as an aqueous and nonaqueous viscosity-increasing agent. It imparts an emollient feel to the skin and can be used in water-in-oil emulsions, oil-in-water emulsions, and anhydrous formulations. It is commonly used in hair conditioners and other hair products.Cetostearyl Alcohol (CH3(CH2)nOH) is a mixture of cetyl and stearyl alcohols that can come from vegetable or synthetic sources. It is classified as a fatty alcohol. Cetostearyl alcohol is a white, waxy, solid material in the form of flakes. It is oil soluble, but it is not water-soluble. In the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry, cetostearyl alcohol functions as an emulsion stabilizer; opacifying agent; surfactant - foam booster; and viscosity increasing agent. It is often used in creams and lotions. It has a melting point of 122°F (50°C) and a boiling point: 480.2°F (249°C).The application of lubricants to protect interacting surfaces in relative motion against friction and wear is common in such diverse fields as mechanical engineering, textile and fiber industries, and plastics processing. In plastics processing, lubricants serve primarily to improve flow by reducing melt viscosity, to reduce internal frictions due to the interaction of polymer chains, and to minimize external frictions and adhesion at the interface between the molten polymer and machinery parts.The industrial processing of PVC, more particularly of rigid PVC, by extrusion, calendering, extrusion blow molding, or injection molding in any case necessitates the use of an appropriate lubricant; accordingly, compounding of PVC represents the largest outlet for lubricants in plastics processing. Other resins into which lubricants are formulated include polyolefins, styrenics, phenolics, and applications such as wood plastic composites,13 nylon films and fibers, and engineering polymers. Usually, the lubricants are added as part of the formulation during plastics processing. They also can be incorporated in the form of a masterbatch.A lubricant may be compatible to the greatest possible extent with the polymer and decrease the internal molecular friction in the molten polymer (internal lubrication) or may easily migrate to the interface between processed plastic melt and metallic machinery parts reducing shear and equipment wear and by this reducing energy consumption and increasing production rates (external lubrication).1It is always important to stress that the properties of the selected emulsifier will generally determine the emulsion type. However, their compatibility with oils of different polarities is also a critical concern. Oil in water (O/W) emulsions typically contain 10–35% oil phase, but a lower-viscosity emulsion may even have an oil phase reduced to 5–15%. To have a stable emulsion, it is important to adjust the specific gravity of the oil and water phases as closely as possible. Addition of certain waxes to the oil phase will certainly increase specific gravity, but may have a profound effect on the appearance, texture, and skin feel of the product. Although less popular than O/W emulsions, water in oil (W/O) systems can be used when greater release of an active substance or the perception of greater emolliency is needed. This type of emulsion system typically has a total of 45–80% oil phase (Epstein, 2009). Clearly, drug delivery systems must contain regulatory approved components of pharmacopoeial quality (Rowe et al., 2009). On the other hand, the plethora of oily components available for the formulation of cosmetic products makes the selection rather difficult.Apart from the comparative in vitro studies described in Section 5.2.1, Jaksic et al. (2012) performed an in vivo tape stripping study on the same Cetearyl glucoside and Cetearyl alcohol-stabilized samples. It is important to note that only the in vivo approach has managed to discern differences between the investigated samples, revealing enhanced ketoprofen penetration profiles from the Alkyl Polyglucoside-based samples relative to the reference Polysorbate 60-stabilized ones (Figure 5.4). This was attributed to the clear influence of the samples’ composition, that is, their specific colloidal structures: lamellar liquid crystalline and lamellar gel phase formed by the APG emulsifier vs. the thick matrix structure of the reference samples. Similar results were shown for diclofenac diethylamine as the model drug (Pantelic et al., in press). However, in this case, the influence of the nature of the drug (an amphiphile and a chaotropic substance, that is, a water-structure breaker) was also taken into consideration, since its penetration was significantly enhanced from the APG sample with the addition of isopropyl alcohol as a penetration enhancer. It appears that the addition of both the alcohol and the model drug exerted a significant influence on the APG-mediated lamellar liquid mesophases, which resulted in significantly higher drug levels at all depths of the stratum corneum. However, the rate of drug penetration is not so easily discerned.It is always important to stress that the properties of the selected emulsifier will generally determine the emulsion type. However, their compatibility with oils of different polarities is also a critical concern. Oil in water (O/W) emulsions typically contain 10–35% oil phase, but a lower-viscosity emulsion may even have an oil phase reduced to 5–15%.

This type of emulsion system typically has a total of 45–80% oil phase (Epstein, 2009).

On the other hand, the plethora of oily components available for the formulation of cosmetic products makes the selection rather difficult.formulated various Alkyl Polyglucoside-based emulsion systems (creams) stabilized with one of the following mixed emulsifiers: Cetearyl glucoside and Cetearyl alcohol (Tasic-Kostov et al., 2012), Coco glucoside and Cetearyl alcohol, and Myristyl glucoside and Myristyl alcohol (Tasic-Kostov et al., 2010 and 2011). Since the formulated samples were envisioned as prospective cosmetic emulsions, they contained a multicomponent oil phase at a concentration of 20% (w/w) comprising isopropyl myristate, caprylic–capric triglycerides, decyl oleate, mineral oil, cetearyl alcohol and dimethicone. The samples showed satisfactory stability, dermal tolerability and applicative characteristics.On the other hand, many authors (Savic et al., 2007, 2010 and 2011; Jaksic et al., 2012; Lukic et al., 2013; Pantelic et al., 2014 and in press) have investigated the use of various APG mixed emulsifiers as potential stabilizers of pharmaceutical emulsions. Naturally, in order to be used as pharmaceutical excipients, potential candidates must undergo detailed evaluation, be approved by certain regulatory bodies and finally receive pharmacopoeial status. Due to the fact that it is by far the most frequently investigated APG surfactant, Cetearyl glucoside and Cetearyl alcohol mixed emulsifier has recently been given such status by the Food and Drug Administration, and named Alkyl Glucoside (Savic et al., 2010).Among the previously mentioned studies, medium-chain triglycerides may be distinguished as the most frequently applied oil phase, commonly used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic emulsions due to their stability and moderate polarity (Vucinic-Milankovic et al., 2007; Lukic et al., 2013; Sierra et al., 2013). This oil phase tends to be dispersed in fine droplets that serve as focus points for the APG-mediated lamellar gel formation (Savic et al., 2011).However, possibly the most comprehensive study to have investigated the type of interaction that may occur between an Alkyl Polyglucoside surfactant and various oils was published by Savic et al. in 2008. They assessed physical stability of samples stabilized with Cetearyl glucoside and Cetearyl alcohol with five different oils of pharmacopoeial quality: decyl oleate, medium-chain triglycerides, isopropyl myristate, dimethicone and light liquid paraffin, with the following polarity indices: 18.7, 21.3, 24.2, 26.65 and 43.7 mN/m, respectively. The content of the oil phase was fixed at 20% w/w. Polarization microscopy revealed specific anisotropic texture in all cream samples regardless of the oil polarity, because the oil droplets served as focus points for a multilayer gel phase. This was also confirmed after the cyclic stress tests were performed, since the observed lyotropic interaction was maintained. Nevertheless, certain differences in the type of lyotropic interaction were observed, such as droplet size variations and the mode of water distribution. Namely, the cream with medium-chain triglycerides possessed several fractions of water entrapped via bonds of different nature, along with loosely bound (free or bulk) water. This has led to the conclusion that, in the case of more polar oils, such as medium-chain triglycerides, isopropyl myristate and decyl oleate, more water is fixed by stronger hydrogen bonds. Hence, in spite of the satisfactory sample stability, the type of oil used may considerably influence the colloidal structure of the vehicle, particularly in relation to the mode of water distribution and rheological properties, both tremendously important for topical preparations. It need not be said that even subtle alterations in these properties may affect drug release from the corresponding systems.In summary, depending on the chosen surfactant/oil combination, the obtained colloidal structure may possess thermodynamically variable fractions of water: (i) free (i.e. bulk) water, (ii) water bound within the lipophilic gel phase (also referred to as secondary water), (iii) interlamellar water fixed between the gel crystalline lipid bilayers and (iv) interlamellar water fixed between lipid layers in the liquid crystalline state (Savic et al., 2006).Cetearyl glucoside (hydrophilic–lipophilic (HLB) value estimated to be around 11) was also the focus of Wohlrab et al. (2010). However, in this study a complex lipid phase was used, comprising squalanes, palm glycerides and fatty acids. The lipophilic phase was marked with a lipophilic fluorescence dye in order to record the exact interaction with the stratum corneum lipids. Rather than Polysorbate 20 and PEG-20 stearate, Cetearyl glucoside was chosen as an especially mild tenside.According to the experience of Tasic-Kostov et al. (2012), application of long-chain Alkyl Polyglucosides, such as Arachidyl glucoside and Arachidyl behenyl alcohol, leads to delayed structuring of the emulsion system, while APGs with shorter alkyl chain length (e.g. Coco glucoside and Cetearyl alcohol) do not show this disadvantage.Arachidyl glucoside and Arachidyl behenyl alcohol was investigated in combination with medium-chain triglycerides, avocado oil and liquid paraffin by Lukic et al. (2013). In the first part of the study, the concentration of medium-chain triglycerides was varied from 5 to 30% (w/w). Screening of the recorded polarization micrographs revealed that anisotropic droplets became larger and more numerous with the increase of the oil phase up to 20% (w/w), which resulted in a gradual thickening of the system (higher yield stress and hysteresis area). At 30% oil phase this observed trend ceased to exist, which was manifested by the decrease in yield stress and increase in hysteresis area values. Hence, a system with 30% (w/w) medium-chain triglycerides may prove to be less physically stable and more difficult to apply to the skin.In the second part of the study, two more oils were introduced to the Arachidyl glucoside and Arachidyl behenyl alcohol-based systems: avocado oil, being a natural-origin oil of medium polarity, and non-polar liquid paraffin, both included in a fixed concentration of 20% (w/w). Due to the relatively similar polarities of avocado oil and medium-chain triglycerides, as expected, both systems showed distinct lamellar phase formation characterized by numerous distorted Maltese crosses. However, the addition of the non-polar liquid paraffin resulted in the decrease of the droplet diameter, along with a significantly reduced birefringence. The potential compatibility concern between liquid paraffin and the C20–22 APG emulsifier was confirmed through subsequent differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. It was further explained by the likely insertion of the liquid paraffin’s hydrocarbons into the long-chain alcohols’ lipid bilayers, thus strongly disrupting the lamellar structure. In fact, the liquid paraffin hydrocarbon chains are almost twice as short as those of the investigated APG emulsifier. Therefore, it can be concluded that the combination of Arachidyl glucoside and Arachidyl behenyl alcohol and non-polar oils such as liquid paraffin may result in unsatisfactory long-term physical stability of emulsion systems.It is generally recognized that microemulsions containing short-chain oils can be easily obtained with surfactants of diverse properties, while formulation of microemulsion systems with molecularly large and partially amphiphilic oils such as triglycerides often presents a challenge. Jurado et al. (2008) found that C10,7G1,4 Alkyl Polyglucoside surfactant with an estimated HLB value of 11.9 was capable of solubilizing triglycerides at low temperatures. However, producing a microemulsion stabilized with Alkyl Polyglucosides is not easy (Ryan and Kaler, 2001). Therefore, many research groups have focused on finding the right co-surfactant or alcohol that will, in combination with an APG, increase the oil solubility and form microemulsions (Fukuda et al., 2001).Goebel et al. (2011) claim that, when aiming to formulate a highly lipophilic active (such as tacrolimus) into a microemulsion system, the concentration of the surfactant(s) should not exceed 30% while the amount of the lipophilic phase should be at least 5% in order to provide adequate solubilization of the drug. Their study, however, encompassed only Decyl glucoside.On the other hand, Pepe et al. (2012) used the same APG surfactant (i.e. Decyl glucoside) to stabilize microemulsions, but at 20% w/w oil phase (either monocaprylin, monolaurin or monoolein), with the aim of increasing cutaneous over transdermal delivery of lycopene and ascorbic acid.Graf et al. (2008) investigated microemulsions stabilized with sugar surfactants (Decyl glucoside or Capryl-caprylyl glucoside) and lecithin, since both are known for their ability to form lamellar liquid crystalline structures. The prepared microemulsions proved to be suitable to serve as nanoparticle templates for the incorporation of insulin. Peira et al. (2008) also combined Decyl glucoside and lecithin, which proved to successfully stabilize microemulsions with cationic charge-inducing agents such as stearylamine and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. As expected, these positively charged microemulsions provided enhanced skin accumulation of miconazole nitrate into the negatively charged skin. The combination of oleoyl macrogol glycerides, lecithin, ethanol and either Coco glucoside or Decyl glucoside was the focus of ElMeshad and Tadros (2011). The formulated W/O microemulsions showed high stability towards electrolyte addition. This was mainly attributed to the Alkyl Polyglucoside component. Additionally, the phase behaviour of both microemulsion series was fairly similar irrespective of the APG used, while good physical and thermodynamic stability was recorded during heat–cool cycles, centrifugation and freeze–thaw cycle stress tests. Somewhat higher pH values of the investigated formulations (7.50 to 8.49) were due to the surfactant/co-surfactant mixture content, since the selected Alkyl Polyglucoside surfactants possess pH values in the range from 11.5 to 12.0.Finally, APGs were also investigated as prospective co-emulsifiers in stabilization of Pickering emulsions based on bentonites, montmorillonites and hectorites.Cetostearyl alcohol is a mixture of fatty alcohols which mainly comprises cetyl and stearyl alcohol and is classified under fatty alcohol.

Cetrimide is an antiseptic agent, meaning Cetrimide has various antibacterial, antifungal and other antimicrobial properties and can be applied to skin or mucous membranes to avoid or minimize the risk of infection.
Cetrimide is also a surfactant, meaning Cetrimide functions as a detergent with cleaning properties.

As a pharmaceutical ingredient, Cetrimide is used in various products mainly for topical use in sprays, gels and creams for a range of purposes, including cleaning burns and wounds, for disinfecting skin before injections or surgery, and for treating fungal infections or nappy rash.

Cetrimide, or alkyltrimethylammonium bromide, is an antiseptic which is a mixture of three quaternary ammonium compounds: tetradonium bromide (TTAB or MITMAB), cetrimonium bromide (CTAB), and laurtrimonium bromide (DTAB or LTAB).

Cetrimide, a quaternary ammonium synthetic disinfectant has properties similar to that of cationic surfactants.
The surfactant solution of cetrimide has emulsifying and detergent properties.

Cetrimide also has bactericidal activity against both gram-negative and gram-positive organisms.
However, higher concentrations are essential to kill the gram-negative organisms.

The collective antibacterial and detergent properties of cetrimide make Cetrimide advantageous in cleansing infected wounds.
However, Cetrimide is comparatively ineffective against acid-fast bacteria, bacterial spores, fungi, and viruses.

In veterinary medicine, cetrimide is used as a topical antiseptic at concentrations of up to 2%.
Cetrimide is also used as an excipient in an injectable antibiotic formulation intended for use in cattle, sheep and pigs.
When used as excipient, the concentration of cetrimide in the formulation is around 0.25 mg/ml, resulting in a dose of approximately 0.01 mg/kg bw of cetrimide in the target species.

In aqueous solution, cetrimide dissociates to a biologically-active cation and an inactive anion.
Cetrimide is inactive towards bacterial spores, Cetrimide is effective against some viruses and has variable anti-fungal activity.
The cation is also responsible for the surfactant activity.

Cetrimide has a chemical structure similar to that of acetyl choline.
Cetrimide is a partial agonist and has depolarising muscle relaxant activities.

At toxic dose levels, paralysis of the respiratory muscles leads to dyspnoea and cyanosis.
Central nervous system depression may also occur.

Cetrimide has been shown to inhibit the intestinal absorption of substances such as D-glucose, methionine and sodium butyrate in several animal species.
Interference with glucose absorption has also been reported in humans.
The pharmacological mechanism is not known but is thought to involve action on receptor sites involved in the absorption process.

CETYLPYRIDINIUM CHLORIDE
CETYLPYRIDINIUM CHLORIDE Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CPC) Cetylpyridinium Chloride is a well-known, broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent used in over-the-counter rinses to promote gingival health. It acts by penetrating the cell membrane, causing cell components to leak, which eventually leads to cell death.16 This action can be described to patients using the analogy of puncturing a water balloon. Recently, over-the-counter therapeutic Cetylpyridinium Chloride rinses have been introduced in alcohol-free formulations Cetylpyridinium Chloride is recognized to be effective against plaque and gingivitis when formulated at concentrations of 0.045% to 0.1% with at least 72% to 77% chemically available cetylpyridinium chloride.7 CPC’s efficacy can be affected by other ingredients in the product formulation thus necessitating specific criteria to be established for its concentration and bioavailability.18 Studies have reported formulations with high bioavailable Cetylpyridinium Chloride are associated with greater biological activity, consequently indicating an increased probability for clinical efficacy.19 Rinses with lower Cetylpyridinium Chloride concentrations or with less chemically available Cetylpyridinium Chloride are long standing marketed products identified as cosmetic products used for the temporary control of halitosis. Cetylpyridinium chloride reduces plaque, calculus Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) is a cationic surface-active agent and has a broad antimicrobial spectrum, and kills gram-positive pathogens and yeast. Maria Perno Goldie, RDH, MS, reviews the quaternary compound Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) is a quaternary compound that reduces plaque and calculus. It is a cationic surface-active agent and has a broad antimicrobial spectrum, and kills gram-positive pathogens and yeast. (Scheie Aa. Modes of action of currently known chemical antiplaque agents other than chlorhexidine. Dent Res 1989; 68: 1609–1616.). Contact with bacteria occurs by the disturbance of the cell membrane, inhibition of cell function, seepage of cell contents, and eventually cell death. This article will be a brief review of CPC. In 2005 a study about a new product was published (Witt J, Ramji N, Gibb R, Dunavent J, Flood J, and Barnes J. Antibacterial and Antiplaque Effects of a Novel, Alcohol-Free Oral Rinse with Cetylpyridinium Chloride. The Journal of Contemporary Dental Practice, Volume 6, No. 1, February 15, 2005. www.jaypeejournals.com/eJournals/ShowText.aspx. Accessed August 31, 2011). The study discusses that Cetylpyridinium Chloride was one of only three antimicrobial systems to be classified as safe and efficacious for the treatment of plaque-induced gingivitis, along with stannous fluoride and essential oils. This was when they were formulated within a concentration range of 0.05 and 0.10%, by the FDA Plaque Subcommittee following a six year review of over 40 active ingredients. The study reviews results from an in vitro pre-clinical study and an in vivo clinical study evaluating the antibacterial and antiplaque benefits a new Cetylpyridinium Chloride rinse technology. The study results support the antibacterial and antiplaque benefits of 0.07% Cetylpyridinium Chloride rinse (Crest Pro-Health Rinse). The Cetylpyridinium Chloride rinse showed significant antiplaque benefits in vivo, reducing plaque on brushed surfaces by 39% and on non-brushed surfaces by 25% versus placebo. These benefits were shown to be comparable to those provided by a positive control, essential oils mouthrinse. This study is available free online. Crest Pro-Health Rinse product does not contain alcohol. Alcohol has an extensive history of safety when used in products as recommended, for the vast majority of the population. (Riep BG, Bernimoulin JP, Barnett ML. Comparative antiplaque effectiveness of an essential oil and an amine fluoride/stannous fluoride mouthrinse. J Clin Periodontol 1999; 26:164-168). However, certain individuals may not be able to tolerate alcohol-containing mouthrinses for a variety of reasons, and we have choices available to recommend to our patients. The standards for the concentration and bioavailability of Cetylpyridinium Chloride were put in place because the effectiveness of Cetylpyridinium Chloride may be affected by other ingredients in the product, whether those ingredients are active or inert. (Jenkins S, Addy M, Wade W, Newcombe RG. The magnitude and duration of the effects of some mouthrinse products on salivary bacteria counts. J Clin Periodontol. 1994; 21:397-401). Some components added to rinses have the ability to bind CPC, causing it to be less effective. One study showed discrepancies in the availability of Cetylpyridinium Chloride and chlorhexidine in some mouthrinse products. (S. Sheen and M. Addy. Which mouthrinses are the most effective at plaque prevention? Br Dent J 2003; 194: 207-210). This is important, as it may have an effect on the potential of some rinses to provide the expected plaque inhibitory activity. Products containing Cetylpyridinium Chloride are generally considered to be safe, when used as recommended. Side effects of Cetylpyridinium Chloride are usually mild, and may include staining of the teeth and tongue. In a meta analysis of eight studies, only one study reported that that the staining was significant in any way. The same systematic review stated that the existing evidence supports that Cetylpyridinium Chloride containing mouth rinses provide a small but significant additional benefit in reducing plaque accumulation and gingival inflammation, when used as adjuncts to either supervised or unsupervised oral hygiene. (Haps S, Slot DE, Berchier CE, and Van der Weijden GA. The effect of cetylpyridinium chloride-containing mouth rinses as adjuncts to toothbrushing on plaque and parameters of gingival inflammation: a systematic review. Int J Dent Hygiene 6, 2008; 290–303). In a review of this meta analysis, strengths and weaknesses were highlighted. (Powell LV. Cetylpyridinium chloride-containing mouthwashes may provide additional benefits for gingival health. ADA Center for Evidence-Based Dentistry. ebd.ada.org/SystematicReviewSummaryPage.aspx. Accessed August 31, 2011). The conclusion was that the weighted mean difference between the test and control treatment at endpoint was significant in favor of Cetylpyridinium Chloride for plaque scores and gingivitis in studies greater or equal to four weeks' duration. According to the reviewer, patients unable to attain sufficient plaque removal with routine brushing and self care may benefit by the addition of a CPC-containing mouth rinse to their oral care regimen.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a mixture of fatty alcohols that is easily biodegradable.


Other names: Cetylstearyl alcohol; Cetylstearyl alcohol; Cetyl/Cetylstearyl alcohol
Cetylstearyl alcohol is composed of Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol. All of them are fatty alcohols (and therefore oil soluble). They are a great addition to conditioners and leave-in conditioners/ moisturizers.
The composition of Cetylstearyl alcohol varies from supplier to supplier. Cetylstearyl alcohol contains 30% or 50% or 70% Cetylstearyl alcohol and the rest is Cetylstearyl alcohol.

Emulsifying & Thickening
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a thickening agent and emulsifier derived from vegetable oils, e.g. palm oil or coconut oil. Cetylstearyl alcohol emulsifies better than of Cetylstearyl alcohol.
Keep in min the fact that, on their own, Cetylstearyl alcohol and a Cetylstearyl alcohol do not actually bind oils to water, however, once this combination has been made they prevent the fused molecules from separating.

Moisture & Conditioning
Cetylstearyl alcohol is oilier than most other alcohols giving it a moisturizing quality; this is why Cetylstearyl alcohol is also used in conditioners.
Cetylstearyl alcohol can make hair feel thicker and softer. This moisturizing quality especially makes Cetylstearyl alcohol useful in moisturizing shampoos.
In conditioners, Cetylstearyl alcohol helps in producing a creamy texture that makes the conditioner easy to spread throughout hair.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol that is used in skincare and cosmetic formulations to improve the texture and sensory feel of products.
Cetylstearyl alcohol also has the added benefit of helping to soften and soothe the skin.
Cetylstearyl alcohol, also referred to as Cetylstearyl alcohol, is a mixture of fatty alcohols, primarily cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohols.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is derived from palm oil and Cetylstearyl alcohol is derived from stearic acid, a saturated fatty acid.
Fatty alcohols are a hybrid between alcohols and fatty acids or oils.
There is often a misconception that because Cetylstearyl alcohol has alcohol in Cetylstearyl alcohols name that Cetylstearyl alcohol is drying to the skin.
The reality is actually the opposite. Cetylstearyl alcohol is a white, waxy solid, usually in a flake form.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is insoluble in water and soluble in alcohol and oils.

Cetylstearyl alcohol
A vegetable-derived fatty alcohol used to thicken and stabilise formulations.
Imparts a smooth, velvety feel to the skin.
Working well in both in water-in-oil emulsions and oil-in-water emulsions, Cetylstearyl alcohol is an effective emulsifier that also acts well as an emollient when added to cosmetic formulations geared towards skin care. This alcohol leaves skin feeling moisturised, conditioned and soft, making it excellent for facial washes, cleansers, lotions and creams. Cetylstearyl alcohol is a more mild and gentle form of Cetylstearyl alcohol, making it more appropriate for sensitive or problem skin care. Often added at the oil phase of a cosmetic formulation.

Uses for Cetylstearyl alcohol include (but are not limited to):

INCI-Name: Cetylstearyl alcohol
Chemical characterization: Cetylstearyl alcohol (alcohols, C16 – C18)

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a chemical found in cosmetic products. It’s a white, waxy substance made from Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol, both fatty alcohols. They’re found in animals and plants, like coconut and palm oil. They can also be made in a laboratory.
They are used in personal care products, mainly skin lotions, hair products, and creams. They help create smoother creams, thicker lotions, and more stable foam products.
Fatty alcohols are sometimes called long-chain alcohols because of their chemical formula. They usually have an even number of carbon atoms, with a single alcohol group (–OH) attached to the last carbon.

Cetylstearyl alcohol
TYPE OF INGREDIENT: Emulsifier
MAIN BENEFITS: Stabilizes products, prevents separation, and thickens.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a waxy substance that's derived naturally from plants, like palm oil or coconut oil, but can also be synthesized in a lab. Fusco says theoretically, Cetylstearyl alcohol could be used in any product that you apply to your skin or hair and is commonly found in creams, lotions, moisturizers, and shampoos. When used in cosmetic products, Cetylstearyl alcohol acts as an emulsifier and stabilizer and prevents products from separating. According to Shah, Cetylstearyl alcohol can also appear on a label under a few different names, for example, C16-18 alcohol or Cetylstearyl alcohol.
Benefits of Cetylstearyl alcohol for Skin?
Cetylstearyl alcohol is not an ingredient that’s used for Cetylstearyl alcohols actual effects on the skin but more so for the composition and function of the product as a whole, according to Shah.

Prevents separation of products: As an emulsifier, Cetylstearyl alcohol is predominantly used in products to stabilize them so that when you apply the formulas to your skin or hair, they don't separate and they apply cosmetically well.
Encourages even application: By keeping the product from separating, Cetylstearyl alcohol may help with the application of a product and as a result, the overall effectiveness of Cetylstearyl alcohol.


Thickens formulas:
Cetylstearyl alcohol is used as a thickening agent in products to enhance the texture and feel.
Softens the skin: Though this is not the primary reason for including Cetylstearyl alcohol in a product,
Cetylstearyl alcohol has a fatty component to it and is derived from oils, it does have an emollient property and may soften and smooth the skin.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is an emulsifier that thickens cosmetics products and makes them stable by holding water and oil together. It can also be used as a surfactant which foams and washes the hair and skin, and is known for its emollient properties.

Description
Most often, cosmetics products need to be extremely stable to have a long shelf life in order to be stored, handled, shipped etc. This is why emulsifiers, stabilisers and preservatives are often added in large quantities, which tends to create thick creams loaded with synthetic ingredients. At Lush, we like them to glide on seamlessly and feel lightweight on the skin. This makes the stability more fragile which is why they are best used as fresh as possible; but in exchange, the product can be filled with fresh flowers, fruits and other beneficial plants.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a solid, waxy material derived from the fats of vegetable oils. It is a common emulsifier used in a vast array of cosmetics. Cosmetic creams and lotions are often composed of water and oil based ingredients, which are held together by substances called emulsifiers. Without emulsifiers, the formula would separate, causing oil droplets to float on top of the water.


Cetylstearyl alcohol
Categories: Texture Enhancer, Emollients

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol that is a mixture of gentle cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohols.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is used as an emollient, texture enhancer, foam stabilizer, and carrying agent for other ingredients.
Cetylstearyl alcohol can be derived naturally, as in coconut fatty alcohol, or made synthetically.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is almost always combined with similar-feeling ingredients to create a product’s texture and influence its slip when applied to skin.

Cosmetic products labeled "alcohol free" are allowed to contain Cetylstearyl alcohol, whose effects are quite different from skin-aggravating forms of alcohol. We repeat: fatty alcohols like Cetylstearyl alcohol do not pose a risk of sensitizing skin.

What is Cetylstearyl alcohol?
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a favorite fatty alcohol of many formulators due to its versatility, dry but emollient feel, and the luxurious thickness it imparts.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a combination of two other fatty alcohols, namely Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol (or Stearic acid)—thus the name Cetearyl. Both are vegetable-derived and very unlike the simple alcohols familiar at the bar in cocktails. Instead, fatty alcohols are light, non-greasy emollients and create a dry, powdery finish with a fluffy texture. They help stabilize emulsions and this results in a slightly thicker product


How Cetylstearyl alcohol Works in Skin Care
The functions of Cetylstearyl alcohol in skin care are wide-ranging and include emollient, emulsifier, emulsion stabilizer, foam busting, opacifying, as a surfactant, and to control viscosity (mainly to thicken). Cetylstearyl alcohol is found in numerous moisturizing skin and hair care products, including creams, lotions, conditioners, and anhydrous products such as body scrubs. For more on emulsifiers, check out this article.

When on the skin in lotions, Cetylstearyl alcohol boosts softness and minimizes stickiness that can come from other ingredients.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is technically a liquid crystal emulsifier (though Cetylstearyl alcohol does not form crystals in products), and this helps Cetylstearyl alcohol mimic skin layers for better absorption, holding water on the skin longer.



How to Use Cetylstearyl alcohol in Cosmetics
Presenting as white to off-white flakes, this oil soluble ingredient usage rates depend on the product.
Although acceptable at 0.5 to 10%, Cetylstearyl alcohol is typically used at <1.5% in facial emulsions—higher percentages can feel too hydrating, as if you are almost sweating. In creams and lotions it is used at 1%-3%.

When adding Cetylstearyl alcohol, heat to 54C (129F), to add to melt/oil phase.


Oil-in-water emulsions used in many pharmaceutical creams are not stabilized by the surfactant mechanical properties but rather stabilized by forming a gel network consisting of the structure-forming agents such as Cetylstearyl alcohol, Cetylstearyl alcohol, Cetylstearyl alcohol, etc.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is the combination of Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a crystalline bilayer/lamellae arrangement with attached surface molecules into the layer facing the hydrophilic portion of surfactants toward interlamellar space.
This hydrophilic portion arrests water drainage from the interlamellar space, which in turn produces a gel that has the capacity to retain large volumes of water within the structure.
In these emulsions (o/w) the oil phase is neither required for the delivery of water-soluble drugs nor for the gel formation but acts as a reservoir for the Cetylstearyl alcohol and is responsible for sensory characteristics of the formulation such as opacity.
Cetylstearyl alcohol and a hydrophilic surfactant are the primary structure-forming excipients used in semisolid dosage form, hence it is necessary to check for the followings
(1) the interactions and crystalline phase transition between them as it can change the semisolid nature of the dosage form (cream, gel, ointment, suppository),
(2) physical properties,
(3) drug release, and
(4) pharmaceutical elegance (Narang and Boddu, 2015).

Cetylstearyl alcohol (Cetearyl) is a blend of cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohol fatty alcohols, and is used as to add viscosity and and as a stabiliser in creams and lotions.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is also used as a co-emulsifier and imparts emollient feel and lubricity to the skin.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is suitable for us in Creams, Lotions, Balms, Body Butters, Anhydrous Scrubs and Solid Conditioning Bars.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is highly compatible with Conditioning Emulsifier and Veg-Emulse, but can be used with all our emulsifiers.

Usage Range: 1 - 25%

Cetylstearyl alcohol has many functions in cosmetics and skincare products, including use as an emollient, emulsion stabilizer, surfactant, opacifying agent, and a viscosity-increasing agent.

Emollient
Cetylstearyl alcohol is an emollient, helping to improve spreadability, texture and provide the skin with a light protective barrier.
Emollients are occlusive ingredients, which provide a layer of protection that helps prevent water loss from the skin.
Thus, Cetylstearyl alcohol has the ability to soften and smooth the skin, which helps to reduce rough, flaky skin.
Additionally, Cetylstearyl alcohol is commonly used in hair conditioners and other hair products due to its emollient properties.

Emulsify
Another function of Cetylstearyl alcohol is as an emulsifier. An emulsifier is needed for products that contain both water and oil components.
Oil and water-based ingredients don’t stay mixed in a formulation, separating and splitting after time.
To address this problem, an emulsifier like Cetylstearyl alcohol can be added to help the two-ingredient types to remain dispersed and produce a stable emulsion.

Surfactant
Cetylstearyl alcohol also functions as a surfactant. Surfactants are ingredients that lower the surface tension between two substances, such as two liquids or a liquid and a solid.
Another job of surfactants is to degrease and emulsify oils and fats and suspend dirt, allowing them to be washed away.
This is possible because while one end of the surfactant molecule is attracted to water, the other end is attracted to oil.
Thus, surfactants attract the oil, dirt, and other impurities that have accumulated on your skin during the day and wash them away.
Due to these properties, Cetylstearyl alcohol can be found in many different cleansers and body washes.
Cetylstearyl alcohol also increases the foaming capacity of products.

Thickener
The last important function of Cetylstearyl alcohol is as a viscosity-increasing agent. The term viscosity refers to the thickness of a formulation. As a viscosity-increasing agent, Cetylstearyl alcohol works to thicken formulations in order to make a product less runny and easier to spread.

Emulsifying : Promotes the formation of intimate mixtures between immiscible liquids by modifying the interfacial tension (water and oil)
Emulsion stabilising : Promotes the emulsification process and improves the stability and shelf life of the emulsion
Foam boosting : Improves the quality of the foam produced by a system by increasing one or more of the following properties: volume, texture and/or stability
Opacifying : Reduces transparency or translucency of cosmetics
Surfactant : Reduces the surface tension of cosmetics and contributes to the even distribution of the product when it is used
Viscosity controlling : Increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetics


Other names: Cetylstearyl alcohol, Cetylstearyl alcohol
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a multi-purpose, vegetable-derived blend of cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohol fatty alcohol that is commonly used as an emollient, emulsifier, and thickener in skincare formulations. It comes in a waxy, white solid substance that can be melted for various purposes.
As an emulsifier, Cetylstearyl alcohol keeps the oil and water from separating, thus allowing them to mix whilst as a thickener, Cetylstearyl alcohol helps to change the viscosity, add shape, and increase a product’s foaming capacity such as in lotions and shampoos.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is not actually an 'alcohol', like the ethyl alcohol that we know to be drying on the skin but is in fact a conditioner that helps to soften skin and hair.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is not a liquid that most people can initially think of, rather it is a mixture of pastilles and irregular, waxy flakes.

Consequently, Cetylstearyl alcohol has become a valuable addition to a multitude of applications including commercial and homemade moisturisers, shampoo/conditioner, and facial cleansers.
In moisturisers, the emollient properties found in this product help build an oily layer that traps water molecules in the skin.
As Cetylstearyl alcohol is known, dry skin can be caused by low air moisture, irregular weather changes, and more.
This makes the skin to appear dull and less radiant. With Cetylstearyl alcohol in your homemade products, you can be confident that not only your skin will reap all the beauty benefits but is also safe from the damaging effects of mass-produced cosmetic products.

Most people tend to confuse Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol.
To break this down, both alcohols may come from fat and may be used as a thickener and emulsifier, however, what sets them apart is that Cetylstearyl alcohol provides more enhanced viscosity-forming effects and provides a better penetration with other ingredients in the formulation.
Cetylstearyl alcohol has more benefits but is more priced so Cetylstearyl alcohol offers a cheaper alternative for applications that do not require the rigour.
When storing this product, Cetylstearyl alcohol is important to keep Cetylstearyl alcohol in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry location.
Temperatures over 32 degrees Celsius may cause the wax to coagulate.
CAUTION: Do not mix Cetylstearyl alcohol with other ingredients containing ceteareth-20 as it may promote the formation of blackheads.

Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetearyl Glucoside
You will often see Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetearyl glucoside bundled together—we sell this combination too—because they make a great self-emulsifying lotion or cream with a luxurious feel.

Cetearyl Glucoside is derived from starch, and on its own is emulsifying and a surfactant. It forms low-viscosity emulsions and is ideal in gel-creams and lotions, also leaving skin hydrated but not oily.
When used together, Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetearyl glucoside are used at 3%-6% in emulsions for rich emollient creams and lotions. They work well with sensitive skin and you can get the combination here.



There are many applications for Cetylstearyl alcohol and although the name may put some people off, the chemistry highlights what a wonderful hydrating, light, and easy-to-use ingredient it is.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is vegetable-derived fatty alcohol used as an emollient and thickening agent in skin creams and lotions.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is perfect for use in Baby Care products like Shampoo and skincare products due to its non-sensitizing properties.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a flaky, waxy, white solid that is a combination of cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohols, which occur naturally in plants and animals. Cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohols are often derived from coconut, palm, corn, or soy vegetable oil, typically from coconut palm trees, palm trees, corn plants, or soy plants. Cetylstearyl alcohol is used in hundreds of personal care, cosmetic, and household products, such as makeup, bath soap, detergents, shaving cream, moisturizer, shampoo, and other products.

What Does Cetylstearyl alcohol Do in Our products?
Cetylstearyl alcohol acts as a moisturizer in our products by helping bind moisture to the skin. It is a fatty alcohol and can also act as an emulsifier, giving proper texture to our products. In addition, it can be an emollient, keep things from separating, control how thick or runny a product is, act as a coupling agent, and even stabilize foams. It doesn’t dissolve in water, but it dissolves in alcohol and oils.

Why Puracy Uses Cetylstearyl alcohol
We use Cetylstearyl alcohol in our products as a moisturizer. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review has deemed Cetylstearyl alcohol safe in cosmetic ingredients. Whole Foods has deemed the ingredient acceptable in its body care quality standards. At least one study also shows Cetylstearyl alcohol does not irritate eyes or sensitize human skin.

How Cetylstearyl alcohol Is Made
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a combination of cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohols. Cetylstearyl alcohol is manufactured by transesterification and distillation of coconut or palm kernel oil using a methanol and a zinc catalyst, followed by hydrogenating the resulting methyl esters using a copper catalyst. The catalysts are removed during the fractional distillation phases, so there are little or no metals in the final product. Cetylstearyl alcohol is manufactured by reducing ethyl palmitate (the waxy ester of palmitic acid) with metallic sodium and alcohol or under acidic conditions with lithium aluminum hydride as a catalyst. The final product melts at a temperature higher than that of the human body, which makes it useful for makeup and other things that are warmed by the skin.

Cetylstearyl alcohol (CH3(CH2)nOH) is a mixture of cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohols that can come from vegetable or synthetic sources. It is classified as a fatty alcohol. Cetylstearyl alcohol is a white, waxy, solid material in the form of flakes. It is oil soluble, but it is not water-soluble. In the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry, Cetylstearyl alcohol functions as an emulsion stabilizer; opacifying agent; surfactant - foam booster; and viscosity increasing agent. It is often used in creams and lotions. It has a melting point of 122°F (50°C) and a boiling point: 480.2°F (249°C).


Cetylstearyl alcohol Flakes

As Cetylstearyl alcohol is milder than Cetylstearyl alcohol, Cetylstearyl alcohol can be used in Baby care and skin sensitive products. You can also add Cetylstearyl alcohol at up to 25% to Vegetable Waxes in Candles to reduce the effects of frosting.

Cetylstearyl alcohol, Cetylstearyl alcohol AND Cetylstearyl alcohol

What is the difference between cetyl, Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol
Cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohol are very similar. Cetylstearyl alcohol is a slightly longer version of Cetylstearyl alcohol having two additional carbons (i.e Cetyl has 16 carbons while Cetylstearyl alcohol has 18). Cetylstearyl alcohol is simply a combination of cetyl and Cetylstearyl alcohol (did you guess from the name?).


Cetylstearyl alcohol, a/k/a Cetylstearyl alcohol, is a plant based product usually extracted from coconut oil.
The vendor has provided the following information to assist customers who are confused about Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol.
There will be slight differences between the two. Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol are the two major components of Cetylstearyl alcohol.
These ingredients are all fatty alcohols and are widely used in cosmetics and personal care products, especially in skin lotions and creams.

Viscosity controlling : Increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetics


Cetylstearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol used as an opacifier in shampoos, and as an emollient, emulsifier, or thickening agent in skin creams and lotions.
Fatty alcohols can be natural, derived from plant-based oils like palm or coconut, or they can be synthetic.
Cetylstearyl alcohol acts as emulsifiers, emollients, viscosity controllers and dispersants.
Cetylstearyl alcohol functions as chemical intermediates, most often used in surfactants to enhance foaming and cleaning properties in detergents and cleaners.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a hybrid of alcohols and fatty acids or oils and actually help to keep the skin moisturized and plumped.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is so-called fatty (the good, non-drying kind of) alcohol that does all kinds of things in a skincare product: it makes your skin feel smooth and nice (emollient), helps to thicken up products and also helps water and oil to blend (emulsifier). Can be derived from coconut or palm kernel oil.
Cetylstearyl alcohol has many functions in cosmetics and skincare products, including use as an emollient, emulsifier, thickener, and surfactant.

Emollient
As an emollient, Cetylstearyl alcohol has the ability to soften and smooth flakiness on the skin, which helps to reduce rough, dry skin.
Emollients are also occlusive agents, which means they provide a layer of protection that helps prevent water loss from the skin.

Skin barrier and hydration
As an emollient, topically applied Cetylstearyl alcohol has the ability to soften and soothe the skin.
The fatty acids that make up this ingredient create a barrier on the skin that effectively seals moisture in while keeping air and other environmental elements out. Therefore, Cetylstearyl alcohol can be used in creams, lotions, and ointments that are designed to improve dry, flaky skin. Emollients help to maintain the skin’s natural barrier which is vital to the health of the skin. Disruption of the skin’s natural barrier has been linked to conditions such as eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis.

Texture
Cetylstearyl alcohol also functions as a thickening agent, which can help to improve the viscosity of skin care products.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is mainly used to improve the texture of formulations, to make them more appealing to the senses.
While this may not seem like an important element to a product, Cetylstearyl alcohol is vital to ensuring the product doesn’t separate or become clumpy so that the key ingredients can be distributed evenly to the skin. The main way the Cetylstearyl alcohol does this is through acting as a thickener. Thickeners improve the consistency, viscosity or adhesion to the skin. The term viscosity corresponds to the concept of ‘thickness’, for example, honey has a higher viscosity than water. Thus, Cetylstearyl alcohol can be used to thicken formulas, adding body and viscosity.

Surfactant
Cetylstearyl alcohol also functions as a surfactant. Surfactant is the short term for surface active agent.
Surfactants are compounds that lower the surface tension between two substances.
Another job of surfactants is to degrease and emulsify oils and fats and suspend dirt, allowing them to be washed away.
This is great for lifting impurities away from the skin, allowing them to be cleansed away.
This is possible because while one end of the surfactant molecule is attracted to water, the other end is attracted to oil. Thus, surfactants attract the oil, dirt, and other impurities that have accumulated on your skin during the day. Due to these properties, Cetylstearyl alcohol can be found in many different cleansers and body washes. Cetylstearyl alcohol also increases the foaming capacity of formulations.

Is Cetylstearyl alcohol Safe?
The US Food and Drug Administration, the regulatory group that is responsible for the safety of drug, food and skincare ingredients includes Cetylstearyl alcohol has approved Cetylstearyl alcohol for its indicated uses. It is also on the US Food and Drug Administration’s list of permitted food additives. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel evaluated the scientific data on Cetylstearyl alcohol and concluded that this ingredient is non-sensitizing, non-toxic, and safe to use in cosmetic products.

While the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel considers Cetylstearyl alcohol to be safe for use in cosmetics, many dermatologists believe that this ingredient can be irritating for those with sensitive skin. There is some evidence that suggests that Cetylstearyl alcohol, along with other synthetic fatty alcohols, have the ability to alter the lipid bilayer of the epidermis and cause allergic dermal reactions. With this information, it is best that those with sensitive skin or skin conditions like eczema, rosacea, or psoriasis perform a patch test with any product containing Cetylstearyl alcohol.

Cetylstearyl alcohol acts as a moisturizer in our products by helping bind moisture to the skin.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol and can also act as an emulsifier, giving proper texture to our products.

Cetylstearyl alcohol has emollient properties and also can function as an emulsifier and thickener in products.
In stick products, such as deodorants and antiperspirants, Cetylstearyl alcohol helps to emulsify the active ingredient and fragrance into the wax base.
Cetylstearyl alcohol also helps modify the physical texture of the stick’s waxy base.

Octadecan-1-ol is a long-chain primary fatty alcohol consisting of a hydroxy function at C-1 of an unbranched saturated chain of 18 carbon atoms.
Cetylstearyl alcohol has a role as a plant metabolite, a human metabolite and an algal metabolite.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a long-chain primary fatty alcohol, a fatty alcohol 18:0 and a primary alcohol.
Cetylstearyl alcohol derives from a hydride of an octadecane.


Cetylstearyl alcohol, Oleyl Alcohol and Octyldodecanol are long chain fatty alcohols.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a white, waxy solid with a faint odor, while Oleyl Alcohol and Octyldodecanol are clear, colorless liquids.
These three ingredients are found in a wide variety of products such as hair conditioners, foundations, eye makeup, skin moisturizers, skin cleansers and other skin care products.

Why is Cetylstearyl alcohol used in cosmetics and personal care products?
Cetylstearyl alcohol, Oleyl Alcohol and Octyldodecanol help to form emulsions and prevent an emulsion from separating into its oil and liquid components.
These ingredients also reduce the tendency of finished products to generate foam when shaken.
When used in the formulation of skin care products, Cetylstearyl alcohol, Oleyl Alcohol and Octyldodecanol act as a lubricants on the skin surface, which gives the skin a soft, smooth appearance.

Cetylstearyl alcohol and Oleyl Alcohol are mixtures of long-chain fatty alcohols.
Cetylstearyl alcohol consists primarily of n-octadecanol, while Oleyl Alcohol is primarily unsaturated 9-n-octadecenol.
Octyldodecanol is a branched chain fatty alcohol. Fatty alcohols are higher molecular weight nonvolatile alcohols.
They are produced from natural fats and oils by reduction of the fatty acid (-COOH) grouping to the hydroxyl function (-OH).
Alternately, several completely synthetic routes yield fatty alcohols which may be structurally identical or similar to the naturally-derived alcohols.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is emollient and viscosity controlling agent is cosmetics products.
Cetylstearyl alcohol has emulsifying, surfactant/cleansing and emulsion stabilising properties.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is a handy multi-tasker, white to light yellowish oil-loving wax that works very well in oil-in-water emulsions.
Cetylstearyl alcohol makes your skin feel nice and smooth (emollient), stabilizes oil-water mixes and gives body to them


Cetylstearyl alcohol is used as a substitute for Cetylstearyl alcohol in pharmaceutical dispensing; in cosmetic creams and perfumery; in textile oils and finishes; as an antifoam agent; and in lubricants, resins, and surface active agents
Synthetic Cetylstearyl alcohol has been approved as a direct and indirect food additive ingredient and as an ingredient in over-the-counter drugs;

What is Cetylstearyl alcohol?
Cetylstearyl alcohol is an organic compound that is classified as a fatty alcohol.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a white, waxy granule or flake, which doesn’t dissolve in water.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is derived from stearic acid which is most commonly found in vegetable, palm and coconut oils.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is often used in hair shampoos and conditioners, moisturisers, make up, cleansers, perfumes and foundation.

What does Cetylstearyl alcohol do?
Cetylstearyl alcohol is used as an ingredient in a wide variety of skin care and cosmetics.
Cetylstearyl alcohol has a number of uses including acting as an emollient, an emulsifier, and a thickener in ointments.
As an emulsifier Cetylstearyl alcohol helps stop products from separating into their oil and water components.
Despite alcohols being associated with drying the skin, as an emollient it acts as a lubricant in moisturisers. Cetylstearyl alcohol helps give the skin a smoother and soft appearance.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is also added to products as it helps stop them from being overly foamy or bubbly, especially if they are dropped or shaken.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a natural fatty alcohol that is used as an emollient, emulsifier, and thickener in a variety of cosmetics and personal care products.
Cetylstearyl alcohol also referred to as octadecyl alcohol or 1-octadecanol, is an organic compound that is classified as a fatty alcohol.
Fatty alcohols are a hybrid between alcohols and fatty acids or oils. This makes them highly versatile skincare ingredients.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is derived from stearic acid, a natural saturated fatty acid, by the process of catalytic hydrogenation.
Catalytic hydrogenation is a process of adding hydrogen atoms to a molecule using a metal as a catalyst.
Cetylstearyl alcohol takes the form of white granules or flakes, which are insoluble in water.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is most commonly used in beauty products such as moisturizers, ointments, shampoos, masks, exfoliators, some cosmetics, and hair conditioners.


Cetylstearyl alcohol is derived from coconut and palm kernel oils. The oils are converted to alcohol, distilled and hydrogenated into Cetylstearyl alcohol.

Oil-in-water emulsions used in many pharmaceutical creams are not stabilized by the surfactant mechanical properties but rather stabilized by forming a gel network consisting of the structure-forming agents such as Cetylstearyl alcohol, Cetylstearyl alcohol, Cetylstearyl alcohol, etc.


Cetylstearyl alcohol helps to improve the texture of products, reduce moisture loss from the skin and protect the skin from allergens and bacteria

Cetylstearyl alcohol is often misunderstood because of its name. Cetylstearyl alcohol is a non-drying ingredient.
Due to its name, Cetylstearyl alcohol is often misunderstood to be harmful to the skin since it is an alcohol.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is true that some alcohols, like ethyl or rubbing alcohol, can be extremely drying to the skin.
However, quite the opposite is true for Cetylstearyl alcohol, which is well known to effectively condition and soften the skin and hair.


Octadecanol is mainly used to improve the texture of formulations, to make them more appealing to the senses.
While this may not seem like an important element to a product, it is vital to ensure the product doesn’t separate or become clumpy so that the key ingredients can be distributed evenly to the skin.
The main way the Cetylstearyl alcohol does this is through acting as a thickener.
Thickeners and gelling agents are widely used throughout the cosmetic industry due to their ability to provide the products with the desired feel.
Thickeners improve the consistency, viscosity, or adhesion to the skin.
The term viscosity corresponds to the concept of “thickness”, for example, honey has a higher viscosity than water.

Thus, Cetylstearyl alcohol can be used to thicken formulas, adding body and viscosity.

Emulsifier
Another function of Cetylstearyl alcohol is as an emulsifier.
An emulsifier is needed for products that contain both water and oil-based ingredients.
When water and oil are mixed together and vigorously shaken, a dispersion of oil droplets in water – and vice versa – is formed.
When shaking stops, however, the two types of ingredients start to separate. To address this problem, an emulsifier like Cetylstearyl alcohol can be added.
This helps the droplets remain dispersed and produces a stable smooth textured product.

Skin barrier
As an emollient, topically applied Cetylstearyl alcohol has the ability to soften and soothe the skin.
The fatty acids that make up this ingredient create a barrier on the skin that effectively seals moisture in while keeping the air and other environmental elements out.
Therefore, Cetylstearyl alcohol can be used in creams, lotions, and ointments that are designed to improve dry, flaky skin.
Emollients help to maintain the skin’s natural barrier which is vital to the health of the skin.
Disruption of the skin’s natural barrier has been linked to conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis.
The emollient properties of Cetylstearyl alcohol also help to smooth and detangle hair, which is why this ingredient is used in various hair care products.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is not suspected to have any significant detriments to the body. Ingredients are evaluated on their potential for carcinogenesis or cancer-causing ability, reproductive and developmental effects. Tests in humans of products containing Cetylstearyl alcohol demonstrated low potential for skin irritation or sensitization.
Cetylstearyl alcohol finds widespread application as an opacifier, emulsion thickener/bodifier and stabilizer, viscosity stabilizer, and rinse-out hair conditioning component.


Use: Technically pure grade of vegetable-derived Cetylstearyl alcohol conforming to the requirements of the European Pharmacopoeia.
Impart dry waxy emollience to creams and lotions. Emulsion stabilisers and viscosity builders.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is used to modify structure and feel of anhydrous salves and sticks.


Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics use : Cetylstearyl alcohol is Emulsion stabilizer for creams and lotions. Cetylstearyl alcohol isQuality modifier of lipsticks. Cetylstearyl alcohol is Additive for ointment base and cream conditioners. The smooth touch to skin for cosmetic uses. Auxiliary for emulsifiers. Thickening agent.
Use: Cetylstearyl alcohol is stabilizer for cosmetic emulsions, Ointment base, Additive for hair cream conditioners.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is thickening agent for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.It is a natural fatty alcohol that is compatible with anionic, cationic and nonionic surfactants.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is used in emulsion systems as a viscosity builder and emulsion stabilizer. In antiperspirants, Cetylstearyl alcohol provides stick strength and payoff.

Cetylstearyl alcohol
Another group of alcohols found in nature are the fatty alcohols, which are derived from saturated vegetable fats such as coconut oil and palm oil.
These have the appearance of solid white fatty waxes and are beneficial to both skin and hair, containing fatty acids that are highly compatible with human cell physiology.
Examples include Cetylstearyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol, the latter of which we use in our hair conditioners for its nourishing and emollient properties.
As the above examples hopefully illustrate, many different compounds make up the group known as 'alcohols', and different alcohols possess widely differing properties.
Some alcohols can have potentially harmful effects (i.e. ethanol) and must be used with caution in personal care products, whereas others (i.e. Cetylstearyl alcohol) are beneficial and are used as very effective nourishing and conditioning agents.


Cetylstearyl alcohol
* A fatty alcohol that's either produced from the end products of the petroleum industry, or derived from plants (palm oil-palmityl alcohol).
Cetylstearyl alcohol comes in the form of a white, waxy solid.
Cetylstearyl alcohol's no longer derived from sperm whale oil (where it was originally discovered) seeing how whales are now an endangered species.
Works as an emollient, emulsifier, thickener and carrying agent for other ingredients contained in a cosmetic solution.
Cetylstearyl alcohol keeps the oil and water parts of an emulsion from separating, and gives products good spreadability.
As a thickening agent and surfactant, it helps alter the viscosity and increase the foaming capacity of non-aqueous (i.e. lotions) and aqueous solutions (i.e. shampoo).
Cetylstearyl alcohol is often misinterpreted as an "alcohol" related to ethyl or rubbing alcohol, both of which can be extremely drying to the skin.
The truth, in fact, is quite the opposite, as Cetylstearyl alcohol is well known to effectively condition and soften the skin and hair.
Because of its multi-functional capabilities, this ingredient is used in a wide range of personal care products such as moisturizer, face cream, shampoo/conditioner, anti-aging treatment, hair dye, sunscreen, cleanser and lipstick.

Cetylstearyl alcohol can increase moisturization properties of your homemade lotions, cremes, balms and ointments.
Cetylstearyl alcohol's widely used in making hair care products ( such as conditioners and hair masks) to give luxurious feel and look to a products and to aid in the rinse off.


Cetylstearyl alcohol is emulsion stabilizer to keep oil and water from separating in your homemade body butter, sugar scrub, creme or lotion.
Cetylstearyl alcohol serves as an oil phase thickener, solidifier and co-emulsifier (helper of an emulsifying wax).
Cetylstearyl alcohol needs to be melted, preferably, together with other oils (moringa, argan, castor, apricot), butters (cupuacu, tamanu, babassu), waxes (carnauba, candelilla, sunflower) and other fatty alcohols (Cetylstearyl alcohol, cetearyl, behenyl)
Cetylstearyl alcohol CAN HELP TO KEEP YOUR SKIN HYDRATED

BACKGROUND INFORMATION OF CETYLSTEARYL ALCOHOL ON USE IN COSMETICS:
Cetylstearyl alcohol (cetylstearyl alcohol) is a mixture of cetyl alcohol (hexadecanol) and stearyl alcohol (octadecanol).
This concerns so-called fatty alcohols since the two components are frequently produced by a reduction of the corresponding fatty acids.



WHAT IS MASS BALANCE?
Cetylstearyl alcohol almost always comes from palm oil, as it is nearly impossible to source Cetylstearyl alcohol from other plants. There is no producer that will guarantee Cetylstearyl alcohol comes from non-palm sources.
It is also difficult to make emulsions without cetearyl or cetyl/stearyl alcohol.
Therefore, it is critical to use Cetylstearyl alcohol from Mass Balance palm certified sources as a step towards sustainable palm use.
Learn more about sustainable palm oil and mass balance here.



WHAT DOES CETYLSTEARYL ALCOHOL DO IN MY HAIR PRODUCTS?
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a chemical produced by mixing two fatty alcohols: cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol.
Both components occur naturally in animals or plants.

Cetylstearyl alcohol is one of the most important ingredients in cosmetics.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is an emulsifier, which means it prevents your product from separating into oils and liquids.
In addition to that, Cetylstearyl alcohol is great to make the texture of the product thicker, smoother, and nicer to touch.



IS CETYLSTEARYL ALCOHOL THE SAME AS CETYL ALCOHOL?
Cetylstearyl alcohol, as we described before, consists of two different fatty alcohols.
The names sound similar — cetearyl and cetyl — but this is where similarities end.
Addressing the most popular question we get: no, you can’t use cetyl alcohol instead of Cetylstearyl alcohol.
The former needs an additional ingredient to activate.



IS CETYLSTEARYL ALCOHOL BAD FOR HAIR?
You definitely heard at least one that you should avoid skin and hair products containing alcohol.
That’s right, you should.
Lots of different alcohols, like ethanol, are drying for your skin and hair.
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a different story.

Cetylstearyl alcohol, being a fatty alcohol, has a completely different chemical structure and doesn’t “behave” like regular alcohol.
Cetylstearyl alcohol doesn’t dry and tighten the skin, doesn’t damage your hair, and is not likely to cause irritation.
According to the FDA, even products labeled as “Alcohol-free” are allowed to include Cetylstearyl alcohol.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has also deemed this ingredient safe to use.



BENEFITS OF CETYLSTEARYL ALCOHOL FOR SKIN AND HAIR CARE:
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a multifunctional ingredient that improves the feel, performance and stability of products.
For skincare products, the addition of Cetylstearyl alcohol makes luxurious, rich formulas, reducing potential stickiness from oil and butters and creating smooth, light, moisturisers.
In haircare, Cetylstearyl alcohol is an important ingredient for increasing spreadability and slip which allows products to glide through hair.



HOW TO USE CETYLSTEARYL ALCOHOL IN FORMULATIONS:
Cetylstearyl alcohol is commonly used as a co-emulsifier and thickener to help stabilise emulsion.
Cetylstearyl alcohol can also be used to supplement the oil phase by reducing the amount of heavy emollients and improving the texture of products.
Substituting a percentage of the butter in a formula with Cetylstearyl alcohol will give the moisturiser a pleasant skin-feel, whilst still maintaining its body and texture.



CETYL ALCOHOL VS. CETYLSTEARYL ALCOHOL:
The main difference between cetyl alcohol and cetearyl alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas Cetylstearyl alcohol is made up of a few different chemical compounds.
If you use cetyl alcohol instead of Cetylstearyl alcohol your finished product will have less body, and feel slightly thinner.
However, both alcohols can be used as thickeners and stabilisers.



WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CETYL ALCOHOL AND CETYLSTEARYL ALCOHOL:
The key difference between cetyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas Cetylstearyl alcohol is a mixture of chemical compounds.
Cetyl alcohol is a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
Cetylstearyl alcohol, on the other hand, is a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.

What is Cetyl Alcohol?
Cetyl alcohol is a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
It occurs as a waxy white solid or in the form of flakes at room temperature.
This substance has a very faint, waxy odour as well.

The name of this compound comes from the term “Cetus,” which means “whale oil” in Latin.
Cetyl alcohol was first isolated from whale oil.
Cetyl alcohol was first prepared from sperm whale oil by the French chemist Michel Chevreul.

He heated the spermaceti (a waxy material obtained from whale oil) in the presence of caustic potash (potassium hydroxide).
This heat treatment produced flakes of cetyl alcohol which were left behind for cooling.
However, the modern method of cetyl alcohol production involves the reduction of palmitic acid obtained from palm oil.

This substance is insoluble in water and very soluble in ether, benzene, and chloroform.
It is also soluble in acetone and slightly soluble in alcohol.
There are many uses of cetyl alcohol, including its use in the cosmetic industry as an opacifier in shampoos, as an emollient, emulsifier, or thickening agent in skin creams and lotions.

Further, this substance is useful as a lubricant for nuts and bolts.
It is an active ingredient in some liquid pool covers, as well.
Apart from that, we can use this substance as a non-ionic co-surfactant in emulsion applications.

Some people can be sensitive to cetyl alcohol, mainly those suffering from eczema.
However, this sensitivity comes mainly due to the impurities that are present in cetyl alcohol.
But sometimes, this substance is used in some medications as well.

What is Cetylstearyl alcohol?
Cetylstearyl alcohol is a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.
The chemical formula for this mixture of compounds can be given as CH3(CH2)nCH2OH, where n can be a variable number typically ranging from 14 to 16.
The other names for this compound mixture include cetyl-stearyl alcohol, ceto-stearyl alcohol, and cetyl/stearyl alcohol.

This mixture of compounds is important as an emulsion stabilizer, opacifying agent, and foam-boosting surfactant.
It is also important as an aqueous and non-aqueous viscosity-increasing agent.
Cetearyl alcohol leaves an emollient feel on the skin and is useful in water-in-oil emulsions, oil-in-water emulsions, and anhydrous formulations.
Commonly, this mixture is used in hair conditioners and other hair products.

What is the Difference Between Cetyl Alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol?
Cetyl alcohol can be described as a type of fatty alcohol having the chemical formula CH3(CH2)15OH.
Cetylstearyl alcohol or cetearyl alcohol can be described as a mixture of fatty alcohols containing cetyl (carbon-16) compounds and stearyl alcohols (carbon-18) compounds.

The key difference between cetyl alcohol and Cetylstearyl alcohol is that cetyl alcohol is a single chemical compound, whereas Cetylstearyl alcohol is a mixture of chemical compounds.
Cetyl-stearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol in solid waxy pastille form, white in color with a neutral aroma.
This raw material, also referred to as C16-18, cetostearyl, or cetearyl alcohol, is a staple ingredient in cosmetic and personal-care formulations.

Through the combination of cetyl and stearyl fatty alcohols, as it name suggests, this ingredient is created and most known to stabilize oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions, add opacity to a product, increase or stabilize the level of foam, and raise the viscosity of a liquid.
Fatty alcohols, unlike ethanol alcohols, are natural emollients and preserve moisture in the skin and hair.
Cetyl-stearyl alcohol is used in the manufacturing of a wide range of cosmetic such as body lotions, moisturizers, creams, shampoo, conditioner, mascara, lipstick, hair dyes, to name a few.

Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is a white or pale yellow, wax-like mass, plates, flakes or granules that is a combination of cetyl and stearyl alcohols, which occur naturally in plants and animals.

Physical properties
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) has emulsifying and stabilizing properties, and is also known as cetylstearyl alcohol and Lanette O.
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is essentially a mixture of two long‐chained stereoisomers, cetyl and stearyl alcohol.
These alcohols are components of lanolin.
White viscous lotion or yellow viscous lotion, with fine particles, good film formation and high film transparency, can be used for leather finishing to significantly improve and enhance the leather performance, diluted in any proportion, and free of insoluble substances.

Uses
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is an emulsifying and stabilizing wax produced from the reduction of plant oils and natural waxes.
Also used as an emollient and to give high viscosity to a finished product.
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is a mixture of fatty alcohols consisting primarily of cetyl and stearyl alcohols.
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is a fatty alcohol which is understood to cause contact dermatitis.
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) also appears in the preparation of solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructured lipid carriers and nanoemulsion of lornoxicam for transdermal delivery.

Production Methods
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is a combination of cetyl and stearyl alcohols.
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is manufactured by transesterification and distillation of coconut or palm kernel oil using a methanol and a zinc catalyst, followed by hydrogenating the resulting methyl esters using a copper catalyst.
The catalysts are removed during the fractional distillation phases, so there are little or no metals in the final product.
Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is manufactured by reducing ethyl palmitate (the waxy ester of palmitic acid) with metallic sodium and alcohol or under acidic conditions with lithium aluminum hydride as a catalyst.
The final product melts at a temperature higher than that of the human body, which makes Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) useful for makeup and other things that are warmed by the skin.

Health Hazard
When used in skin care, Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) is completely safe for skin.
Although some alcohol for skin can definitely be drying and irritating, fatty alcohols like Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) are the opposite.
In fact, they help nourish and moisturize the skin and help give cosmetics their consistency.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel concluded in 1988 that fatty alcohols, including Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70), are safe for use in cosmetic products.
A subsequent 2005 review confirmed these results.
In clinical studies, Cetyl-Stearyl Alcohol (30:70) was found to have no significant toxicity and was non-mutagenic.

Chamomile extract (Matricaria recuita) is a flowering plant in the daisy (Asteraceae) family. Native to Europe and Western Asia, it's now found around the world. The herb smells slightly like an apple, which may explain its name—chamomile extract is Greek for Earth apple. There are two different chamomile plants: German chamomile extract and Roman chamomile extract. German chamomile extract, which is considered the more potent variety and the type most widely used for medicinal purposes, is the plant discussed here. Also Known As Matricaria recutita Chamomilla extract recutita German chamomile extract Hungarian chamomile extract True chamomile extract Chamomile extract has been used as an herbal remedy since the time of Hippocrates, the father of medicine, in 500 BC. The list of conditions for which it's been used is extensive. It includes fever, headaches, kidney, liver, and bladder problems, digestive upset, muscle spasms, anxiety, insomnia, skin irritations, bruises, gout, ulcers, rheumatic pain, hay fever, inflammation, hemorrhoids, colic, and menstrual disorders. The generic name, Matricaria, comes from the Latin matrix, meaning womb, because chamomile extract was used historically to treat disorders of the female reproductive system. Germans refer to chamomile extract as alles zutraut, meaning capable of anything. Indeed, chamomile extract was considered such a panacea or cure-all that one writer described it as "the medical duct tape of the pre-MacGyver days." In modern times, chamomile extract is mostly taken orally to help with insomnia, anxiety, and digestive upsets, though it's also being investigated as a possible treatment for diabetes. It's also used topically to quell skin conditions and to help with wound healing. The research, however, isn't strong for any of these purported benefits because chamomile extract hasn't been well studied in people. Some of the purported benefits of chamomile extract likely stem from the fact that the essential oil and flower extracts derived from chamomile extract contain more than 120 chemical constituents, many of which are pharmacologically active. They include chamazulene (an anti-inflammatory), bisabolol (an oil with anti-irritant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial properties), apigenin (a phytonutrient that acts as a strong anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial and antiviral), and luteolin (a phytonutrient with potential anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer activity). Whether as a result of these compounds or others, research shows chamomile extract possesses properties that can help ease inflammation, spasms, and flatulence, promote calm and sleep, and protect against the bacteria that cause stomach ulcers. Health Benefits Chamomile extract may be best known as a sleep aid, but the strongest evidence for the herb suggests it might be helpful for anxiety. Here's a look at current evidence. Insomnia Chamomile extract is one of the most widely used alternative therapies for promoting sleep and treating insomnia. However, despite its reputation as an herb that facilitates sleep, there's little solid research supporting its effectiveness. Interestingly, despite the fact that it approved the use of chamomile extract flower preparations for a host of other purposes—including gastrointestinal spasms and bacterial skin diseases—in 1984, Commission E, Germany's counterpart to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, did not grant approval for it as a sleep aid due to the lack of published research in this area. The few human studies that have been conducted are small, have design flaws (for instance, no control group), and show mixed results. For instance, in a 2011 study, 17 people with insomnia took 270 milligrams of chamomile extract twice daily (an amount that could only be achieved in a concentrated extract, not a tea) for a month and also kept a sleep diary. When researchers compared their diaries to those who took a placebo, they found no significant difference in how fast patients fell asleep or how much sleep they got. In contrast, a 2017 study of 77 older people in nursing homes found a significant improvement in sleep quality when participants were given 400-milligram capsules of chamomile extract twice a day for four weeks, compared to those who didn't receive any treatment. Similarly, when researchers in a 2016 study randomized 40 women who had just given birth to drinking one cup of chamomile extract tea a day for two weeks, they scored significantly lower compared to a control group that didn't drink the tea when it came to both sleep problems and symptoms of depression. However, the improvement went away four weeks after the women stopped drinking the tea, suggesting the positive effects of chamomile extract are limited to the short term. As for how chamomile extract might help induce slumber, animal research suggests it has both sedative and anti-anxiety effects. One study reported that apigenin, a component of chamomile extract, binds at the same receptor sites in the brain as benzodiazepines like Valium. Another study showed that chamomile extract at a dose of 300 milligrams caused a significant shortening in how long it took rats to fall asleep, while other research in mice demonstrated that chamomile extract can significantly prolong the sleeping time induced by sleep-inducing drugs like barbiturates. Anxiety Research has shown chamomile extract to have meaningful benefits when it comes to reducing anxiety and the Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database, which rates the effectiveness of natural remedies based on scientific evidence, says chamomile extract is possibly effective for anxiety. The first controlled clinical trial of chamomile extract in 2009 found it may have a modest anti-anxiety effect in people with mild-to-moderate general anxiety disorder, one of the most common anxiety disorders. Participants took 200 milligrams to 1,100 milligrams of chamomile extract a day for eight weeks. A 2016 study found that taking 500 milligrams of chamomile extract three times a day for 12 weeks significantly reduced moderate-to-severe symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder, one of the most common anxiety disorders. In addition to soothing anxiety, research shows chamomile extract may also have antidepressant effects as well. Digestive Issues Preliminary studies suggest that chamomile extract inhibits Helicobacter pylori, the bacteria that can contribute to stomach ulcers. Chamomile extract is believed to be helpful in reducing smooth muscle spasms associated with various gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders like inflammatory bowel disease, though research is needed to confirm that use. An animal study from 2014 showed that chamomile extracts have strong antidiarrheal and antioxidant properties when given to rats in a dose-dependent manner against castor oil-induced diarrhea and intestinal fluid accumulation. A 2015 study on more than 1,000 patients with acute diarrhea found that a commmercial product containing a combination of myrrh, coffee charcoal, and chamomile extract flower extract is well tolerated, safe, and as effective as conventional therapies. Wound Healing Topically applied chamomile extract may be able to speed wound healing. Studies show that substances in chamomile extract can kill viruses and bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, the cause of staph infections, reduce inflammation, and prevent and treat the growth of ulcers. One preliminary study that compared chamomile extract and corticosteroids for treating ulcers in test tubes and animals concluded that chamomile extract promotes faster wound healing: Animals treated with chamomile extract exhibited complete wound healing nine days before animals treated with corticosteroids. Chamomile extract helped heal wounds in humans as well. In one small study that investigated the efficacy of a combination of lavender and chamomile extract essential oil on patients with chronic leg ulcers, researchers reported that four of the five patients in the chamomile extract and lavender oil group had complete healing of the wounds with the fifth patient making progress towards a recovery. Chamomile extract also proved superior to applying one percent hydrocortisone ointment in healing skin lesions after a surgical procedure in another study. Wounds treated by applying a chamomile extract compress for an hour once a day healed five to six days faster than those treated with hydrocortisone once a day. Still, more studies are needed. Eczema Chamomile extract is often used to treat mild skin irritations, including sunburn, rashes, sores, and even eye inflammations, but its value in treating these conditions needs more research. Topical applications of chamomile extract have been shown to be moderately effective in the treatment of eczema. In one partially double-blind trial carried out as a half-side comparison, a commercial chamomile extract cream showed a mild superiority towards a low-dose .5 percent hydrocortisone and a marginal difference compared to the placebo. Diabetes Some studies have found that chamomile extract tea can lower blood sugar in people with diabetes. In one study, 64 participants that consumed chamomile extract tea three times a day after meals for eight weeks saw a statistically significant decrease in markers for diabetes as well as total cholesterol compared to people who drank water. It also exhibited some anti-obesity activity. While chamomile extract may be a helpful supplement to existing treatments, researchers noted that larger and longer studies are needed to evaluate the usefulness of chamomile extract in managing diabetes. Oral Health Some preliminary studies that evaluated the efficacy of chamomile extract mouthwash found that it significantly reduced gingivitis and plaque in comparison to controls, probably because of its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activities. Selection and Preparation The flowering tops of the chamomile extract plant are used to make teas, liquid extracts, capsules, or tablets. The herb can also be applied to the skin as a cream or an ointment, or used as a mouth rinse. To make tea, steep one heaping teaspoon of chamomile extract flowers in two-thirds of a cup of boiling water for five to 10 minutes before straining. You can also buy commercial teas. Chamomile extract is also available in capsules. As a gargle or mouth rinse, prepare as a tea, then let it cool. Gargle as often as desired. You may also make an oral rinse with 10 to 15 drops of German chamomile extract liquid extract (aka tincture) in 100 milliliters of warm water. There is no standard dosage of chamomile extract. Dosages used in studies vary. For instance, capsules containing 220 to 1100 milligrams of German chamomile extract have been taken daily for eight weeks to help alleviate anxiety. Possible Side Effects Chamomile extract is part of the same plant family as ragweed and chrysanthemum, so people with allergies to these plants may react—sometimes severely—when they use chamomile extract either internally or topically. Though reactions are reportedly more common with Roman chamomile extract, call your doctor if you experience vomiting, skin irritation, or allergic reactions (chest tightness, wheezing, hives, rash, itching) after chamomile extract use. Contraindications Chamomile extract contains coumarin, a naturally-occurring compound with anticoagulant or blood-thinning effects. It should not be combined with Coumadin (warfarin) or other medications or supplements that have the same effect or be used by people with bleeding disorders without a doctor's supervision. An isolated case has been reported of a 70-year-old woman who developed severe internal bleeding after drinking four to five cups of chamomile extract tea for a sore throat and using a chamomile-based skin lotion four to five times a day. The woman was being treated with the drug warfarin for a heart condition. It’s believed that the chamomile extract tea (and possibly the lotion) acted synergistically with the warfarin to cause bleeding. Due to concerns about bleeding, chamomile extract shouldn't be used two weeks before or after surgery. German chamomile extract might act like estrogen in the body. If you have any condition that might be made worse by exposure to estrogen, including hormone-sensitive conditions like breast cancer, uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, endometriosis, or uterine fibroids, don't use it without consulting your doctor. Keep in mind that chamomile extract in any form should be used it as a supplement to, and not a replacement for, your usual medication regimen. Talk to your health care providers before taking chamomile extract if you’re taking any type of medicine. Giving them a full picture of what you do to manage your health will help to ensure coordinated and safe care. Considered to be one of the most ancient and versatile medicinal herbs known to mankind, dried chamomile extract flowers have numerous, widespread health implications thanks to their high levels of disease-fighting antioxidants like terpenoids and flavonoids. Chamomile extract vital antioxidants are found in the plant’s potent oils and are the main contributors to its natural healing properties. As an effective alternative medicine with almost no known negative side effects, chamomile extract has been used for nearly 5,000 years in standardized tea, herbal extract and cosmetic forms to promote tranquility, vitality, a youthful appearance and longevity. What Is Chamomile extract? Chamomile extract plants are a member of the Asteraceae/Compositae family. There are two common types of chamomile extract used medicinally today: German chamomile extract (chamomillarecutita) and Roman chamomile extract (chamaemelumnobile). The chamomile extract plant is native to Western Europe and Northern Africa, but these days it’s grown all around the world in different temperate regions. Records show that chamomile extract benefits have been recognized for centuries, with the herb being used both medicinally and cosmetically. Germans have used chamomile extract to resolve digestive issues since at least the first century, and records show that Egyptians worshipped the plant and dedicated festivals to its healing properties. Egyptian noblewomen were known to crush chamomile extract flowers and apply them to their skin to preserve their youthful glow and naturally slow signs of aging. Romans used chamomile extract as a medicinal herb to fight disease and promote longevity. Its healing qualities spread throughout Europe and eventually the British brought chamomile extract plants to North America. Doctors throughout Europe and in the early settlements of America included chamomile extract in their medicinal bags because it was able to reduce pain, inflammation, allergies and digestive issues. People also used it as a natural deodorant, shampoo and perfume. Today, chamomile extract tea and herbal extracts are sold worldwide for human consumption. One cup of chamomile extract tea has two calories, two milligrams of sodium and no cholesterol. Chamomile extract is commonly used for improving many different health conditions, including: anxiety and depression seasonal allergies inflammatory conditions muscle spasms PMS symptoms and other menstrual disorders insomnia skin disorders ulcers wounds gastrointestinal disorders arthritis symptoms and rheumatic pain hemorrhoids How can one herb do so much? Chamomile extract benefits our health by soothing the body, relieving mild pain, fighting skin irritations and helping to ease anxiety. Research also shows that drinking chamomile extract tea can help to improve sleep quality and fatigue, and even alleviate depression. The list of ways that chamomile extract can be used is surprisingly long. Drinking chamomile extract tea is the most popular way to use this powerful herb. You can also diffuse chamomile extract essential oil at home, use the oil to soothe skin conditions. Chamomile extract extracts are also available and used to relieve digestive issues and promote liver detoxification. Related: Linden Tea Benefits for the Body and Mind Chamomile extract Benefits 1. High Source of Antioxidants The main antioxidant components extracted from chamomile extract flowers are the terpenoid group of antioxidants, including chamazulene and acetylene derivatives. Because these delicate compounds are unstable, they’re thought to be best preserved in an alcoholic tincture or “essential oil” form. Other major constituents of the flowers include several phenolic compounds, primarily the flavonoids, including apigenin, quercetin, patuletin as well as various glucosides. These compounds help to reduce inflammation by fighting free radical damage and preventing cell mutation. Chamomile extract benefits start with antioxidants that are associated with better immune function, lower rates of mood disorders, reduced pain and swelling, and healthier skin, hair, nails, teeth and eyes. 2. Fights Anxiety and Depression Chamomile extract, whether in tea, tincture or essential oil form, is one the best medicinal herbs for fighting stress and promoting relaxation, according to research from Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine and Pharmacognosy Review. Inhaling chamomile extract vapors using chamomile oil is often recommended as a natural remedy for depression and general anxiety, which is one reason why chamomile oil is a popular ingredient in many candles, aromatherapy products and bath-soaking treatments. In extract form, chamomile extract is frequently used as a mild sedative to calm nerves and reduce anxiety because its vapors travel directly to the olfactory part of the brain, turning off tension and reducing the body’s stress response. This is why practitioners use chamomile extract to effectively relieve symptoms of chronic anxiety and stress, including hysteria, nightmares, insomnia and various digestive problems. Smells are carried directly to the brain, and they serve as an emotional trigger. The limbic system evaluates the sensory stimuli, registering pleasure, pain, danger or safety; this then directs our emotional response, such as feelings of fear, anger and attraction. Our basic emotions and hormonal balance are in response to the most basic smell. Scents are a direct pathway to memory and emotion. Fragrances, like chamomile extract, relieve pain and generally affect personality and behavior. Research proves that using oil fragrances is one of the fastest ways to achieve psychological results. 3. Improves Digestion Believed to be a powerful digestive relaxant, chamomile extract can be used to treat various gastrointestinal disturbances, including gas, acid reflux symptoms, indigestion, diarrhea, anorexia, motion sickness, nausea and vomiting. Chamomile extract can help shorten the course of diarrhea and colic in children as well as relieve symptoms associated with the conditions like pain and anxiety. Chamomile oil also contains anodyne compounds that are anti-spasmodic, reducing cramping, constipation and other stomach pains. Many of these benefits are due to chamomile extract natural relaxing effects. Because the brain and the gut communicate directly back and forth via the vagus nerve, a more relaxed mind can also help heal leaky gut, which can mean reduced symptoms of chronic conditions like leaky gut, IBS and other gut-related issues. Chamomile extract benefits include mellowing effects also make it a good choice for pregnant women in order to relax the digestive tract and act as a natural remedy for nausea. 4. Has Strong Anti-Inflammatory and Pain-Reducing Abilities Chamomile extract is sometimes called an “herbal aspirin” since it’s been a popular home remedy for lowering pain for centuries. Chamomile extract flowers are used alone or in combination with other anti-inflammatory foods to reduce pain, congestion, swelling and redness. They’re effective at reducing facial swelling, skin irritations, toothaches, pain from infections and underlying issues of inflammation. This is the reason chamomile extract is commonly added to beauty products like facial or body lotions, toothpastes, and bath soaps. A 2018 crossover study published in Neurological Science found that a chamomile extract gel was able to reduce migraine pain. Chamomile extract can also naturally lower pain associated with arthritis, injuries, back pain, fevers and pregnancy. In fact, its pain-reducing qualities are even used to soothe the body and mind after giving birth. For example, in some parts of the world like Mexico, chamomile extract tea is given to women after labor to relax their abdominal muscles and help them rest. 5. May Help Fight Cancer Recently, several studies dug into the anti-cancer activity of chamomile extract. Evidence shows positive effects of chamomile extract stopping cancerous tumor growth and acting as a natural cancer treatment. Inhibition of cancerous cells is believed to be due to chamomile’s antioxidants called apigenin, which are bioactive constituents that appear to help fight skin, prostate, breast and ovarian cancers. In a recent study published by the Journal of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, chamomile extracts were shown to cause minimal growth inhibitory effects on normal healthy cells, but showed significant reductions in human cancer cells, especially androgen-refractory cells that often lead to prostate cancer. 6. Relieves Congestion Because chamomile extract benefits include both fighting infections and reducing mucus congestion, it’s added to many nasal sprays. Chamomile extract tea is also a good choice when you’re sick and want to beat a cold, the flu or sinus infection. Studies indicate that inhaling steam with chamomile extract is helpful in common cold symptoms. Some people even gargle chamomile extract tea or extract to fight inflammation of the mucous membranes and within the mouth and throat. 7. Promotes Skin Health Suffering from breakouts or dry, irritated, aged, red skin? Try using chamomile oil mixed into lotion. Chamomile extract promotes smooth, healthy skin and relieves irritations thanks to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. Chamomile extract flavonoids and essential oils penetrate below the skin surface into the deeper skin layers of the skin, preserving its youthful appearance, completion and immune defenses. As a traditional medicine, it’s been used for centuries to treat wounds, ulcers, eczema, gout, skin irritations, bruises, burns and canker sores. Today, we know chamomile extract benefits and uses go even further — it’s also useful for getting rid of signs of aging like dark spots and fine lines, reducing dandruff naturally, treating chickenpox quickly, and fading scars. Additionally, it makes a great natural diaper rash treatment and can even be used around the eyes to fight infections and sties. 8. Keeps Gum and Teeth Healthy In addition to healing skin and the respiratory tract, chamomile extract benefits include the ability to fight various bacterial infections of the oral cavity, teeth and gums. Chamomile extract benefits help reduce pain associated with cancer sores, wounds and toothaches, plus they fight harmful bacteria that can live within the mouth. A pilot study published in the Journal of Oral Science found that a mouthwash containing 1 percent chamomile extract effectively reduced biofilm accumulation and bleeding in patients with gingivitis. This was likely due to the herb’s antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activities. 9. May Improve Heart Health Recently, chamomile extract has been associated with providing cardiovascular protection. Because of its high level of flavonoids, chamomile extract consumed in foods is linked with a lower risk of death from coronary heart disease in elderly men. One study published in The Lancet assessed the flavonoid intake of 805 men aged 65–84 years and found that higher flavonoid intake from foods and herbs was significantly inversely associated with mortality from coronary heart disease. How to Buy and Use Today, chamomile extract is widely available and used in various forms, usually as a tea, essential oil, dry powder or tincture. Which type you want to buy depends on how you plan to use it. Dry powder and extract forms of chamomile extract flowers are usually most recommended by traditional practitioners since these provide the most potent forms of chamomile extract antioxidants. If you come across chamomile extract powder, look for a product made with pure chamomile extract flower leaves (where the oils are held), but not fillers like the plant’s stems or roots. Extracts are also used to make chamomile extract capsules, which are often used to treat anxiety and sleep issues. The standard dosage for these types of conditions, which have been used in studies, is 220–1,100 milligrams per day, for about 8 weeks. In most parts of the world, chamomile extract tea is the most popular way to enjoy the plant’s calming effects. You can find chamomile extract tea in nearly any grocery store, but look for organic, pure tea leaves to get the most benefits. How many cups of chamomile extract tea can you drink in a day? Because chamomile’s oils aren’t very water-soluble, tea won’t have as strong of an effect as chamomile extract essential oil uses, powders or tinctures, but it can still help you to kick back and soothe your stomach after a long day. This means that you can drink one to four cups of chamomile extract tea per day. If you want to use chamomile extract on your skin, in the bath or combined with other products you already have, look for chamomile extracts that contain about 50 percent alcohol and a standardized extract of 1.2 percent of apigenin (which is one of the most effective bioactive agents). Chamomile extract essential oil can also be bought in health food stores and online. It’s an excellent remedy for solving skin issues and reducing pain, plus you can burn chamomile extract as an aromatherapy treatment to ease tension, relax and fall asleep easily.

CAS Number: 8001-20-5
EC Number: 232-272-3

China wood oil is obtained from the seed kernel of tung (Aleurites fordii), a tree that grows in parts of China and South America.
The oil content in the kernel varies from 40 to 60%.

The crude oil is mainly used.
China wood oil is bright brown, opaque and with a characteristic odour.
China wood oil is an oil with the highest drying power, even greater than that of linseed oil.

The main fatty acid is eleostearic (between 70 and 85%), with 3 unsaturations in combined positions.
Eleostearic acid is only present in China wood oil.

China wood oil is mainly used in resins, varnishes, inks and generally in formulations where high film strength is required.
When considering China wood oil use for coatings, China wood oil use is basically exterior.
China wood oil is one of the main components of teak oil together with linseed oil.

China wood oil or Tung oil is a drying oil obtained by pressing the seed from the nut of the tung tree (Vernicia fordii).
China wood oil hardens upon exposure to air (through polymerization), and the resulting coating is transparent and has a deep, almost wet look.

China wood oil is used mostly for finishing and protecting wood, after numerous coats, the finish can even look plastic-like.
Related drying oils include linseed, safflower, poppy, and soybean oils.

Raw China wood oil tends to dry to a fine, wrinkled finish (the English name for this is gas checking).
This property was used to make wrinkle finishes, usually by adding excess cobalt drier.
To prevent wrinkling, the oil is heated to gas-proof China wood oil (also known as "boiled").

'China wood oil' is often used by paint and varnish manufacturers as a generic name for any wood-finishing product that contains the real China wood oil or provides a finish that resembles the finish obtained with China wood oil.

China wood oil is a drying oil that’s extracted from the seed of the tung tree, which is native to China and a few other Asian countries.
The oil has been used for centuries as a water-resistant finish for boats and other wooden objects, as well as to finish stone.
China wood oil is an excellent alternative to other drying oils, such as walnut, linseed and soy.

On top of producing a beautiful and protective finish, China wood oil is also a popular choice for projects because China wood oil is versatile, easy to use, and environmentally friendly.

There are many reasons why people love China wood oil for their projects, and one of the most popular is China wood oil flexible, durable, food safe, and protective waterproof finish that doesn’t mold, darken or go rancid.
On a practical note, China wood oil also dries faster than other oils, making China wood oil easier and less time-consuming to apply.
From an aesthetic standpoint, China wood oil also cures to a beautiful matte finish that adds depth to woodgrain, producing an antique-style finish on any surface.

Tung oil, also called wood oil, or china wood oil, pale-yellow, pungent drying oil obtained from the seeds of the tung tree.
On long standing or on heating, China wood oil polymerizes to a hard, waterproof gel that is highly resistant to acids and alkalies.

China wood oil is used in quick-drying varnishes and paints, as a waterproofing agent, and in making linoleum, oilcloth, and insulating compounds.
China wood oil is produced chiefly in China from the tung tree.

Marco Polo is said to have brought a sample back to the western world from China.
Completely natural and renewable, pure China wood oil has gained recent popularity among the environmentally conscious.

Inherently resistant to disease and insects, tung trees require no fungicides or pesticides.
Tung nut byproducts can be used for mulch.
During World War II the Chinese figured out how to use China wood oil as motor fuel.

China wood oil is a small deciduous tree that grows up to 40 feet tall with smooth bark and a branchy head.
China wood oil leaves are dark green and glossy with blades 3-13 inches wide.

The tung tree has flowers that range in size from 1-3 inches in diameter with petals that are white tinged with red and yellow.
Each nut or fruit contains 3-7 large seeds.

The tung tree’s official botanical name is Aleurites fordii.
China wood oil thrives in moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil.

These hearty, fast growing trees mature to bear fruit in their third year and yield commercial quantities at four to five years of age.
Maximum production occurs in the tenth to twelfth years of growth, with trees expected to be commercially productive for at least 20 years after optimum production has occurred.

In the Northern Hemisphere, tung tree nuts grow in clusters and fall to the ground from late September through November.
The fruits are left for a few weeks to dry and cure.

China wood oil is produced by harvesting these nuts and separating the nuts from their hard outer shells.
Then the transparent oil is squeezed from the seeds inside.

Dried and pressed nuts yield about twenty percent oil.
Under favorable conditions an acre of tung trees will produce about two tons of tung nuts and yield about 100 gallons of raw China wood oil annually.

China wood oil is made from pressed seeds from the nut of the tung tree.
The tung tree, native to China, is named for China wood oil heart-shaped leaves because “tung” is Chinese for “heart.”

In the 14th century, Chinese merchants were noted for using China wood oil to waterproof and protect wooden ships from the eroding powers of the sea.
There are even mentions of China wood oil appearing in the writings of Confucius in around 400 B.C.

For these reasons, China wood oil is also sometimes referred to as "Tung oil".

Pure China wood oil is considered a drying oil much like linseed, safflower, poppy and soybean oil and is known to have a slightly golden tint.
China wood oil, which is actually a vegetable oil, is considered the best penetrating drying oil available due to China wood oil unique ability to wet the surface, allowing China wood oil to penetrate even the densest woods.
Unlike linseed oil, China wood oil will not darken with age.

Originating from China and South America, China wood oil—an extract from tung-tree nuts—is a natural drying oil that coats your fine wood furnishings with a transparent, wet finish.
China wood oil enhances the color of your wood, offers excellent protection and is eco-friendly.

While there are many advantages to using China wood oil, pure China wood oil takes two to three days to harden, and needs at least five coats.
Oil/varnish blends and wiping varnishes are faster-drying, more practical options, but such terms rarely appear on labels.

Penetrating China wood oil finishes come in three varieties: pure China wood oil, oil/varnish blends, and wiping varnish.
They all share the benefits that China wood oil imparts to a finish—durability, water resistance, resilient hardness, and color stability—depending on how much of the oil they actually contain and what form China wood oil takes.

Pure China wood oil:
Pure China wood oil is easy to identify because China wood oil contains no solvents.
That may be a good thing in terms of limiting your exposure to VOCs, but applying China wood oil is an exacting, drawn-out process.

You have to wait at least two to three days for each coat to harden.
And China wood oil takes five to seven coats to get a protective film.
Rushing the process, or applying too thick a coat, causes wrinkling, which has to be sanded off.

Regular reapplication is a must—”once a week for a month, once a month for a year, once a year ever after,” as the saying goes.
The results can be gorgeous, as long as you have the necessary patience.

Uses of China wood oil:
China wood oil is used mostly for finishing and protecting wood, after numerous coats, the finish can even look plastic-like.

The interior can be used for all woods (except floor).
China wood oil can also be used on wood that comes into contact with food.

Especially gun handles, wooden handle cutting tools, wooden products for hobby purposes are especially preferred.
As the number of layers increases, China wood oil brightness increases.

Wood Finishing:
China wood oil is very popular today because of two properties: first, China wood oil is a naturally derived substance.
Second, after China wood oil cures (5 to 30 days, weather/temperature related), the result is a very hard and easily repaired finish, so China wood oil is used on boat decks and now on floors.

The oil is often diluted with hydrocarbon thinner so China wood oil viscosity is very low and enables the oil to penetrate the finest grain woods.
This thinning vehicle evaporates within 15 to 20 minutes.

When applied in many fine/thinner coats over wood, China wood oil slowly cures to a matte/light satin look with slight golden tint.
China wood oil resists water better than any other pure oil finish and does not darken noticeably with age.

China wood oil is claimed to be less susceptible to mould than linseed oil.
China wood oil is considered safe to be used on sculptures made near waterways.

Heating China wood oil to about 500 °F (260 °C) in an oxygen-free environment will substantially increase the viscosity and film-forming quality of the product.
Most polymerized China wood oils are sold mixed with mineral spirits to make them easier to work with.
Limonene and D-limonene are less toxic alternatives for mineral spirits.

Oil-paper umbrella:
The oil-paper umbrella is the traditional umbrella used in China, Japan, and other countries in the sinosphere, and was brought to Western countries through the Silk Road.
China wood oil is the "oil" mentioned in the oil-paper umbrella, which is used to protect the paper from getting wet, and to make the umbrella waterproof.

The Many Uses of China wood oil:
Carpenters, woodworkers, crafters, and hobbyist alike all love China wood oil, and over the years they’ve used China wood oil as a beautiful and protective finish on a wide number of projects and surfaces.
For instance, China wood oil has been used with fantastic results to finish wood, bamboo, concrete, stone, brick, and even metal surfaces.
China wood oil is a favorite for finishing wood floors, cabinetry, decks, siding, furniture, guitars and other musical instruments, handmade toys, and more.

China wood oil can be used in the following industries:
Lubricants, Paints & Coatings

China wood oil can be applied as:
Other Oleochemicals, Base Fluids

Easy-to-Follow Steps for Applying China wood oil to Your Projects

1. Clean the surface:
The proper application of China wood oil depends on you starting with a clean and prepared surface.
Before you start, make sure there’s no grease, oil, dirt, dust, or other contaminants on the surface.

If necessary, start by sanding or stripping the surface to remove any coating or finish that’s already there.
China wood oil can only be applied to bare surfaces or over another coat of China wood oil.

Follow that up by cleaning the surface with trisodium phosphate.
Sand the surface one more time with 150-grit sandpaper, and then vacuum well to remove all dust.

2. Thin the oil:
A thinner will make the China wood oil easier to apply, faster to dry, and will improve penetration.
The only time you shouldn’t thin the oil first is if you’re applying China wood oil to weathered wood, concrete, old and unfinished wood floors, or other highly absorbent surfaces.

To thin the oil, combine China wood oil with equal parts Citrus Solvent, mineral spirits, or Odorless Mineral Spirits before application.
Do not use a mineral spirit or odorless mineral spirit marketed as “green”, “eco-friendly”, or similar verbiage.

These do not mix with the China wood oil and will create adverse effects on your finish.
You could also choose one of our pre-thinned options, Half & Half or Dark Half, to use straight out of the bottle!

3. Apply a generous first layer
You can apply the oil with a natural bristle brush, a sponge brush, or a soft and lint-free rag.
Apply the oil liberally to the surface.

Unlike varnish, which sits on top of the wood, the goal with China wood oil is to thoroughly saturate the wood cells.
When you’ve applied the first coat, let the oil absorb.

4. Apply subsequent coats:
After the first coat has absorbed, apply a second coat.
Continue this process of applying coats, waiting 40 minutes between coats if necessary, until over 80 percent of the surface stays glossy for at least 40 minutes.

This means the wood cells have been saturated and you can move to the next step.
Decorative items may need two to four coats, while functional surfaces that will be handled, used, or walked on will need a minimum of three to five.

5. Removing unabsorbed oil from the surface:
After you’ve applied multiple coats and the wood won’t absorb any more oil, use a clean rag to wipe the surface.
If there are any puddles of oil on the surface, mop them up with the rags.

This is important as you don’t want the China wood oil to start curing on the surface.
At this point, your surface is fully saturated.

However, the pure China wood oil will settle inside the wood/material overnight on through the next day.
To get the best finish we recommend applying one or two more coats of the oil, following the instructions previously stated, after this period of waiting.

Make sure to wipe up oil that’s on the surface that does not absorb.
Hang oil-soaked rags separately outside to dry before disposing.

6. Let the oil cure for up to 30 days:
From here, the oil will need a week to 10 days to start curing, and 15 days to 30 days to fully cure.
Do not put the China wood oiled object in direct sunlight for an extended period of time.

For the first 10 days of curing, check and wipe up any China wood oil that may seep to the surface.
During this curing time, you can walk on floors with clean shoes, but avoid placing heavy objects on the floor or walking on China wood oil with dirty shoes. (Tip: put old rags under your shoes to walk across the surface no matter what shoes you’re wearing.)

There are no other sealers or protective products needed on top of your oil.
China wood oil naturally seals, waterproofs, and protects your surfaces!

7. Cleaning your surfaces:
Pure China wood oil is easy to clean.
For your floors or other wooden objects, just simply use hot water and standard dish soap.

8. Reapply as necessary to revive and provide more protection:
Surfaces that are used often or walked on frequently may need some maintenance to revive their look and add more protection.
To do this, simply mix 2 parts thinner to 1 part China wood oil and wipe down your surfaces.
Allow time to dry as necessary.

China wood oil has been popular for thousands of years, thanks to the protective and waterproof finish China wood oil creates on wood and other porous surfaces.
These days, pure China wood oil is also gaining momentum because China wood oil’s non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and food safe, meaning China wood oil’s ideal for kitchenware, butcher block, cutting boards, countertops, and even toys.

Applying China wood oil is easy and effective.

The main tips to remember are: don’t leave excess oil on the surface during the curing phase, no sanding necessary between coats, no other sealer or topcoats needed and use 2 parts thinner to 1 part China wood oil for maintenance.

Applications of China wood oil:
The traditional technique for applying pure China wood oil is to dilute the oil 1:1 with solvent, then apply a succession of very thin films with a soft, lint-free cloth such as tee-shirt cotton.
Diluents range from traditional spirits of turpentine to any of the new citrus-based thinners to naphtha.

The choice of thinner should be guided by how fast the coating needs to set.
Naphtha works well in spray-on applications in well-ventilated studios.

Primary coats may be laid down at a 1:1 oil-to-thinner ratio, and successive layers, if not absorbed into the wood, at higher solvent to oil concentrations.
This technique brings out the deepest color of the wood while maintaining a matte finish.

China wood oil finishes that start with polymerized oils or China wood oil preparations are best applied in the fat over lean principle: thinned pure oil is applied to deeply penetrate the surface, to fill pores.
Straight oil is then applied moderately to adhere to the surface and provide a good base for the thick gloss layers.

The polymerized oil is then applied thickly as a single layer, allowed to fully dry, buffed smooth with very fine sandpaper and 0000 steel wool.
The surface is wiped clean with a moistened rag and allowed to dry.

A final coat is applied fairly thickly (the oil will smooth itself into a glass-like coating) and allowed to dry for two to three days.
Rags soaked with China wood oil can spontaneously combust (burst into flame).

Benefits of China wood oil:

Easy to Use:
China wood oil is a natural oil recognised by craftsmen to offer the ultimate hand-rubbed finish for all fine woods; just wipe on and allow the oil to cure at room temperature.

Permeates:
Unlike other finishes that form a film on the wood’s surface, China wood oil penetrates deep into the wood fibres, cures to a flexible non-oily solid, and becomes part of the wood China wood oilself

Protects:
Resistant to moisture, alcohol, oil, and everyday wear for lasting beauty and protection; lasts many times longer than mineral oil and wax based products.

Multi Use:
Amazing results on almost any surface that will allow the oil to penetrate - new unfinished wood, weathered wood, stripped wood, concrete floors and countertops, even brick, stone, and cast iron

Great for Food Contact Surfaces:
China wood oil is considered non-toxic when dry therefore is great for cutting boards, butcher blocks, countertops, wooden bowls, wooden utensils, and more.

Features of China wood oil:
Super easy to apply.
Keeps the wood strong from inside and prevents stains.

Suitable only for indoor use, but has water resistant properties.
Provides a warm glow type of finish, while keeping the original pores and natural beauty of the wood.
Completely non-toxic due to lack of any additives.

Composition of China wood oil:
The fatty acids in China wood oil and their concentration are listed in the table.

Fatty acid composition of China wood oil:
Alpha-eleostearic acid: 82.0%
Linoleic acid: 8.5%
Palmitic acid: 5.5%
Oleic acid: 4.0%

The primary constituent is a fatty acid with a chain of 18 linked carbon atoms or methylene units containing three conjugated double bonds.
They are especially sensitive to autoxidation, which encourages cross linking of neighbouring chains, hence hardening of the base resin.

History of China wood oil:
The China wood oil tree originates in southern China and was cultivated there for China wood oil, but the date of cultivation remains unknown.
During the Song Dynasty, China wood oil was used for waterproofing on ships.

The word "tung" is etymologically derived from the Chinese 桐 tóng.
The earliest references for Chinese use of China wood oil is in the writings of Confucius around 500 to 400 BC.

The first tung tree seed was brought to America from Hankow, China in 1905 by a senior agricultural explorer for the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
In 1912 the Bureau of Plant Industry issued a special bulletin that urged growers to plant tung orchards and offered a limited number of free one-year old trees.

This was a perfect fit, because after acre upon acre of pine trees were cut for timber in the early 1900s, Gulf Coast farmers were looking for a sustainable cash crop for the vast vacant land.
That same year, ten trees were planted at University of Florida’s Agricultural Experiment Station in Gainesville.
By 1927, there were over 400 growers and more than 10,000 acres of China wood oil trees in Alachua County, Florida and surrounding areas alone.

In 1928, L.P. Moore, nephew of the Benjamin Moore Paints founder, built the first mechanized China wood oil compressing mill in the world, located in Gainsville, Florida.
This began the commercial production of China wood oil in America.

Other mills later popped up in Cairo, Georgia and Florala, Alabama.
The U.S. was a prime location for this new industry, importing 100 million pounds of Chinese China wood oil in 1927, and 120 million pounds in 1933, with demand still exceeding supply.
The industry expanded from Florida, Georgia and Alabama to Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas,with Mississippi becoming the largest producing state.

Just prior to the outbreak of WWII, China wood oil was declared a strategic item for defense use, so the government aided growers to help them to produce more and better trees.
During the war, all ammunition was coated with China wood oil and products containing China wood oil painted all ships.

Not only were government support programs available for US growers, but the government also assisted foreign plantings in South America, particularly Argentina.
There was an embargo on Chinese China wood oil at the time, making domestic oil profitable.
The Pan American Tung Research and Development League was formed between China wood oil producers in Amercica and Argentina to work jointly on research and development and to pool China wood oil from both countries to provide consistent supplies to U.S. consumers.

CHLORHEXIDINE GLUCONATE

DESCRIPTION:
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is a disinfectant and antiseptic with the molecular formula C22H30Cl2N10, which is used for skin disinfection before surgery and to sterilize surgical instruments.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is also used for cleaning wounds, preventing dental plaque, treating yeast infections of the mouth, and to keep urinary catheters from blocking.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is used as a liquid or a powder.




Chlorhexidine Gluconate is known by the salt forms: chlorhexidine gluconate (chlorhexidine digluconate) and chlorhexidine acetate (chlorhexidine diacetate).
Side effects may include skin irritation, tooth discoloration, and allergic reactions, although the risk appears to be the same as other topical antiseptics.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate rinse is also known to have a bitter metallic aftertaste.

Rinsing with water is not recommended as Chlorhexidine Gluconate is known to increase the bitterness.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate may cause eye problems if direct contact occurs.
Use in pregnancy appears to be safe.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate may come mixed in alcohol, water, or surfactant solution.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is effective against a range of microorganisms, but does not inactivate spores.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate came into medical use in the 1950s.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate is available over the counter in the United States.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.
In 2020, Chlorhexidine Gluconate was the 273rd most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 1 million prescriptions


Chlorhexidine Gluconate is an antiseptic medicine.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is available as mouthwash, toothpaste, gel, solution, and soap.
Mouthwash is used in the treatment of gingivitis (a condition in which the gums become red and swollen), mouth ulcers, oral thrush (fungal infection in your mouth), and denture sores (redness, swelling, and tenderness in the mouth due to denture, removable replacement for missing teeth).
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is also used for maintaining oral hygiene.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate toothpaste and gel are used to prevent the formation of tooth plaque (a soft, sticky biofilm that forms on the teeth due to bacterial growth).
The gel is also used for the treatment of gingivitis and mouth ulcers.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate soap is used to clean the skin and wound area and prevent skin infections.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate solution is used prior to surgery for skin disinfection.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is also used by healthcare professionals to disinfectant the hands before surgical or medical procedures.


Chlorhexidine Gluconate may show some minor side effects like taste change, staining of teeth, and burning sensation.
These side effects are temporary and resolve with time.
Consult your doctor if they become severe or remain for a long time.



Mouthwash is an antiseptic liquid preparation for cleaning the mouth and teeth or freshening the breath.
There are 2 types:
Cosmetic mouth wash may temporarily control bad breath and leave behind a pleasant taste but has no chemical or biological application beyond its temporary benefit.
Therapeutic mouth wash helps reduce or control plaque, gingivitis, bad breath, and tooth decay.


Chlorhexidine Gluconate Mouthwash:
Chlorhexidine Gluconate rinse is another antiseptic that is used in dentistry to clean the mouth and teeth.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is a cationic antiseptic with a bisbiguanide base activity and a broad-spectrum antibiotic with topical antibacterial activity.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate is found in three forms:
• Chlorhexidine Digluconate
• Chlorhexidine Hydrochloride
• Chlorhexidine Acetate.



USES OF CHLORHEXIDINE GLUCONATE:
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is used in disinfectants (disinfection of the skin and hands), cosmetics (additive to creams, toothpaste, deodorants, and antiperspirants), and pharmaceutical products (preservative in eye drops, active substance in wound dressings and antiseptic mouthwashes).
A 2019 Cochrane review concluded that based on very low certainty evidence in those who are critically ill "it is not clear whether bathing with chlorhexidine reduces hospital-acquired infections, mortality, or length of stay in the ICU, or whether the use of chlorhexidine results in more skin reactions."

In endodontics, chlorhexidine has been used for root canal irrigation and as an intracanal dressing but has been replaced by the use of sodium hypochlorite bleach in much of the developed world.

Antiseptic:
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms, facultative anaerobes, aerobes, and yeasts.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is particularly effective against Gram-positive bacteria (in concentrations ≥ 1 μg/L).
Significantly higher concentrations (10 to more than 73 μg/mL) are required for Gram-negative bacteria and fungi.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate is ineffective against polioviruses and adenoviruses.
The effectiveness against herpes viruses has not yet been established unequivocally.

There is strong evidence that chlorhexidine is more effective than povidone-iodine for clean surgery.
Evidence shows that it is an effective antiseptic for upper limb surgery.

Meta-data spanning several decades shows that the efficacy of chlorhexidine (against organisms that cause surgical site infection) has not changed, dispelling concerns over emerging resistance.

Dental use:
Perichlor brand 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate solution
Use of a chlorhexidine-based mouthwash in combination with normal tooth care can help reduce the build-up of plaque and improve mild gingivitis.
There is not enough evidence to determine the effect in moderate to severe gingivitis.

Its use as a mouthwash has a number of adverse effects including damage to the mouth lining, tooth discoloration, tartar build-up, and impaired taste.
Extrinsic tooth staining occurs when chlorhexidine rinse has been used for 4 weeks or longer.
Mouthwashes containing Chlorhexidine Gluconate which stain teeth less than the classic solution have been developed, many of which contain chelated zinc.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate is a cation which interacts with anionic components of toothpaste, such as sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium monofluorophosphate, and forms salts of low solubility and reduced antibacterial activity.
Hence, to enhance the antiplaque effect of chlorhexidine, "it seems best that the interval between toothbrushing and rinsing with CHX [chlorhexidine] be more than 30 minutes, cautiously close to 2 hours after brushing”


Topical:
Chlorhexidine gluconate is used as a skin cleanser for surgical scrubs, as a cleanser for skin wounds, for preoperative skin preparation, and for germicidal hand rinses.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate eye drops have been used as a treatment for eyes affected by Acanthamoeba keratitis.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate is very effective for poor countries like Nepal and its use is growing in the world for treating the umbilical cord.
A 2015 Cochrane review has yielded high-quality evidence that within the community setting, chlorhexidine skin or cord care can reduce the incidence of omphalitis (inflammation of the umbilical cord) by 50% and neonatal mortality by 12%.

Side effects:
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is ototoxic (toxic to the inner ear). If put into an ear canal which has a ruptured eardrum, it can lead to deafness.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate does not meet current European specifications for a hand disinfectant.
Under the test conditions of the European Standard EN 1499, no significant difference in the efficacy was found between a 4% solution of chlorhexidine digluconate and soap.


In the U.S., between 2007 and 2009, Hunter Holmes McGuire Veterans Administration Medical Center conducted a cluster-randomized trial and concluded that daily bathing of patients in intensive care units with washcloths saturated with chlorhexidine gluconate reduced the risk of hospital-acquired infections.

Whether prolonged exposure over many years may have carcinogenic potential is still not clear.
The US Food and Drug Administration recommendation is to limit the use of a chlorhexidine gluconate mouthwash to a maximum of six months.

When ingested, Chlorhexidine Gluconate is poorly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and can cause stomach irritation or nausea.
If aspirated into the lungs at high enough concentration, as reported in one case, it can be fatal due to the high risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Mechanism of action:
At physiologic pH, chlorhexidine salts dissociate and release the positively charged chlorhexidine cation.
The bactericidal effect is a result of the binding of this cationic molecule to negatively charged bacterial cell walls.
At low concentrations of chlorhexidine, this results in a bacteriostatic effect; at high concentrations, membrane disruption results in cell death.

Chemistry:
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is a cationic polybiguanide (bisbiguanide).

Deactivation:
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is deactivated by forming insoluble salts with anionic compounds, including the anionic surfactants commonly used as detergents in toothpastes and mouthwashes, anionic thickeners such as carbomer, and anionic emulsifiers such as acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, among many others.
For this reason, chlorhexidine mouth rinses should be used at least 30 minutes after other dental products.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT CHLORHEXIDINE GLUCONATE:
Chlorhexidine is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial biguanide used as a topical antiseptic and in dental practice for the treatment of inflammatory dental conditions caused by microorganisms.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is one of the most common skin and mucous membrane antiseptic agents in use today.
The molecule itself is a cationic bis-guanide consisting of two 4-chlorophenyl rings and two biguanide groups joined by a central hexamethylene chain.
Topical chlorhexidine for disinfection, as well as oral rinses for dental use, carries activity against a broad range of pathogens including bacteria, yeasts, and viruses.

Chlorhexidine was developed in the UK by Imperial Chemical Industries in the early 1950s and was introduced to the US in the 1970s.
The FDA withdrew its approval for the use of chlorhexidine gluconate topical tincture 0.5%, due to a significant number of reports concerning chemical and thermal burns associated with the use of this product.
Other formulations of chlorhexidine continue to be available.



HOW DOES CHLORHEXIDINE GLUCONATE WORK?
The reason Chlorhexidine Gluconate works is that it’s positively charged and reacts with the negatively charged microbial cell surface, thereby destroying the integrity of the cell membrane.
Subsequently, it penetrates the cell of the microbe, causes leakage of intracellular components, leading to microbial cell death.

Solution:
One form of chlorhexidine which is widely used in dentistry is chlorhexidine gluconate, available in several forms, including oral rinse, mouthwash, and solution.
The oral rinse and mouthwash can be used to reduce plaque and gingivitis and can be used as an adjunctive therapy in the treatment of adult periodontitis.

Chlorhexidine gluconate solution is often used to help treat and reduce periodontitis and periodontal gingivitis.
It works by killing bacteria and other microorganisms in the mouth and helps to reduce the inflammation and swelling of your gums and to reduce gum bleeding.
Chlorhexidine gluconate is effective against a wide range of oral pathogens, including Streptococcus mutans, which is a major contributor to tooth decay and plaque formation.

It is often used as a preoperative mouthwash, oral rinse, or as an ingredient in other oral care products such as toothpaste and mouthwash.
It’s also possible to mix it into other base oral rinses like OraVital ® CX620 Base Oral Rinse to achieve enhanced antiseptic properties.

The solution is sometimes used for surgical hand scrubs and preoperative skin preparation.
Antiseptic chlorhexidine is a topical antiseptic that is used to prevent infection in minor cuts, scrapes, and burns.


What different forms can you buy Chlorhexidine Gluconate in?

Chlorhexidine solution can be found in different concentrations, such as 0.12%, 0.2% and 2%.
The 0.12% solution is typically used as a preoperative mouthwash and oral rinse, while the 0.2% solution is used for longer-term treatment of periodontal diseases.

Buying Chlorhexidine Gluconate in a concentrated solution is a wise consumer thing to do, but you’ll have to make sure to dilute it.

The 2% solution is used for cleansing, removal of residues, irrigation and disinfection of the root canal in root canal treatments.
But be forewarned, overuse or misuse of chlorhexidine can lead to tooth staining or other harmful and possibly lethal side effects.

Chlorhexidine pharma grade, 1,6-bis(4-chlorophenylbiguanido)hexane, C22H30Cl2N10, Mr 505.45, mp 134 ℃, is a widely used antiseptic (→Disinfectants).
Chlorhexidine pharma grade can be prepared, for example, from 1,6-hexamethylenebis(dicyandiamide) and 4-chloroaniline hydrochloride.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is used primarily as its salts (e.g., the dihydrochloride, diacetate, and digluconate) in disinfectants (disinfection of the skin and hands), cosmetics (additive to creams, toothpaste, deodorants, and antiperspirants), and pharmaceutical products (preservative in eyedrops, active substance in wound dressings and antiseptic mouthwashes).
Chlorhexidine pharma grade occurs as an odorless, bitter tasting, white crystalline powder.

History
Chlorhexidine pharma grade was the first antimicrobial agent shown to inhibit dental plaque formation and the development of chronic gingivitis.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is a cationic chlorophenyl bisbiguanide antiseptic.
Bisbiguanides are the primary second generation antiplaque agents exhibiting considerable substantivity and broad spectrum antibacterial properties.
In dental medicine, Chlorhexidine pharma grade was initially used for disinfection of the oral cavity prior to oral surgical procedures and in endodontics.
Plaque inhibition by CHX was first investigated in 1969 (Schroeder) but the first controlled clinical study was performed by Loe and Schiott.

This study showed that rinsing for 60 sec, twice a day with 10 ml of a 0.2% (20 mg dose) CHX gluconate solution, in the absence of normal tooth cleaning, inhibited plaque regrowth and the development of gingivitis.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is one of the most widely investigated and used antiplaque agents.
The advantage of Chlorhexidine pharma grade over other cationic agents is that it can bind strongly to many sites in the oral cavity and is released slowly over 7 to 12 hours after rinsing, thus providing considerable substantivity and a sustained antimicrobial effect restricting bacterial proliferation.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade binds strongly with anionic glycoproteins and phosphoproteins on the oral mucosa and tooth pellicle in addition to its property of binding to the surfaces of bacterial cell membranes affecting the cells ability to adhere.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is considered the most potent chemotherapeutic agent currently available.

Uses
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is an antibacterial used for numerous applications.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is a cationic polybiguanide (bisbiguanide) used primarily as its salts, dihydrochloride, diacetate, and digluconate.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is one of those drugs which are enlisted/included in the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, a list of the most important drugs needed in a basic health system.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is used as a germicidal compound in teat dips.
Also used as navel treatment, udder and eye wash, surgical scrub and sterilization material.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is used primarily as a topical antiseptic/disinfectant in wound healing, at catheterization sites, in various dental applications and in surgical scrubs.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is used as an antibacterial agent in humans to control gingivitis and over all plaque control in preventative dentistry.
Hydrogenolysis of benzyl-nitrogen bonds.

Chlorhexidine pharma grade is used as a topical antiseptic in liquid cosmetics.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is strongly alkaline and may cause irritation.

Chlorhexidine pharma grade, antibacterial agent, has been used in preparaing chlorhexidine-functionalized calcium phosphate nanoparticles, useful for oral hygiene and dental treatment.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is an important medical, dental and pharmaceutical antiseptic, disinfectant and preservative.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is bactericida and fungicidalsy but does not kill bacterial spores or mycobacteria, although it inhibits growth.

Chlorhexidine pharma grade has a low order of activity against viruses, but high concentrations are effective in killing cysts of Acanthamoeba spp., organisms of potential clinical significance to the wearers of contact lenses.
Properties Chlorhexidine pharma grade is a bisbiguanide which is available as the acetate (diacetate), hydrochloride and gluconate salts.
These are stable in solution and can be autoclaved although small amounts of chloroaniline are released.”

As a cationic agent, chlorhexidine is incompatible with anionic surfactants and its antimicrobial activity is reduced in the presence of non-ionic surface-active agents.
Activity is also reduced or abolished by phospholipids (a factor of significance in neutralizing Chlorhexidine pharma grade activity during the performance of biocidal tests) and by organic matter including serum.
Some of these aspects have been well documented in the recent comprehensive paper of Nicoletti et al.”
They also point out that the efficacy of chlorhexidine is influenced by formulation components and by the composition of the culture medium in which minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) are determined.

Chlorhexidine pharma grade is used in disinfectants (disinfection of the skin and hands), cosmetics (additive to creams, toothpaste, deodorants, and antiperspirants), and pharmaceutical products (preservative in eye drops, active substance in wound dressings and antiseptic mouthwashes).
A 2019 Cochrane review concluded that based on very low certainty evidence in those who are critically ill "Chlorhexidine pharma grade is not clear whether bathing with chlorhexidine reduces hospital-acquired infections, mortality, or length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU), or whether the use of chlorhexidine results in more skin reactions."
In endodontics, Chlorhexidine pharma grade has been used for root canal irrigation and as an intracanal dressing.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade has however been replaced by the use of sodium hypochlorite bleach in much of the developed world.

Antiseptic
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms, facultative anaerobes, aerobes, and yeasts.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is particularly effective against Gram-positive bacteria (in concentrations ≥ 1 μg/L).
Significantly higher concentrations (10 to more than 73 μg/mL) are required for Gram-negative bacteria and fungi.
Chlorhexidine pharma grade is ineffective against polioviruses and adenoviruses.
The effectiveness against herpes viruses has not yet been established unequivocally.
There is strong evidence that Chlorhexidine pharma grade is more effective than povidone-iodine for clean surgery.
Evidence shows that Chlorhexidine pharma grade is an effective antiseptic for upper limb surgery.
Meta-data spanning several decades shows that the efficacy of Chlorhexidine pharma grade (against organisms that cause surgical site infection) has not changed, dispelling concerns over emerging resistance.

Dental use
Use of a Chlorhexidine pharma grade-based mouthwash in combination with normal tooth care can help reduce the build-up of plaque and improve mild gingivitis.
There is not enough evidence to determine the effect in moderate to severe gingivitis.

*The cleaning process eliminates contaminants like grease and oil, Chlorinated Paraffin can also remove plasticizers that are required for an effective formulation.



PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PARAFFIN:
Chlorinated paraffins produced by reaction of ramified paraffin varians and chlorine gas.
Chlorinated Paraffin is found as mixed with trading product.
Complete discomposition is not possible through standard chemical analysis methods.



BENEFITS OF CHLORINATED PARAFFIN:
*Fire resistant
*Resistant to water-based detergent extraction
*Stain resistance
*Low- temperature flexibility
*Resistant to water and chemicals
*Plastisol viscosity stability



PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PARAFFIN:
Chlorinated paraffins are synthesized for industrial by reaction of chlorine gas with unbranched paraffin fractions at a temperature of 80–100 °C since the 1930s.



THE EMULSION PROFILING OF A CHLORINATED PARAFFIN:
Chlorinated Paraffin is straight-chain hydrocarbons that have been chlorinated.
Chlorinated Paraffin is classified according to their carbon-chain length and percentage of chlorination.
Carbon-chain lengths generally, range from C10 to C30 and chlorination from approximately 35% to greater than 70% by weight.



HOW TO FORMULATE CHLORINATED PARAFFIN IN AQUEOUS SYSTEMS:
All chlorinated paraffins are in oil form and to formulate them in an aqueous system emulsifiers are required.



PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PARAFFIN:
Chlorinated paraffins are synthesized by reaction of chlorine gas with unbranched paraffin fractions (The radical substitution may be promoted by UV-light.
CxH(2x+2) + y Cl2 → CxH(2x−y+2)Cly + y HCl

When the desired degree of chlorination is achieved, residues of hydrochloric acid and chlorine are blown off with nitrogen.
Epoxidized vegetable oil, glycidyl ether or organophosphorous compounds may be added to the final product for improved stability at high temperatures.
Chlorinated Paraffin is complex mixtures of chlorinated n-alkanes containing thousands of homologues and isomers which are not completely separated by standard analytical methods.

Chlorinated Paraffin is produced in Europe, North America, Australia, Brazil, South Africa and Asia.
In China, where most of the world's production capacity is located, 600,000 tons of chlorinated paraffins were produced in 2007.
Production and use volumes of CPs exceeded 1,000,000 tons in 2013.



CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL DATA OF CHLORINATED PARAFFIN:
Chlorinated Paraffin is manufactured by the chlorination of specified normal paraffin fractions (straight-chain hydrocarbons) obtained from petroleum refining.

Ordinary commercial chlorinated paraffin is not a single compound but is a mixture, each containing several homologous n-alkanes corresponding to their manufacture from n-paraffin fractions with several different degrees of chlorination.
Chlorinated Paraffin is characterized to a first approximation by the carbon-chain length range of their n-alkanes and by the chlorine content of the product.

An average chain length for the hydrocarbon feedstock or an average molecular weight is often stated as well.
For example, a chlorinated paraffin referred to as C12, 60% chlorine, would be a product with an average chain length of 12 carbons with approximately 60% chlorine.



CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF CHLORINATED PARAFFIN:
Chlorinated paraffins that have been manufactured from pure n-paraffins are generally unreactive and stable during storage at normal temperatures.
Depending on their chain length and degree of chlorination, chlorinated paraffins are colourless or yellowish, mobile to highly viscous liquids or waxy to glassy solidified substances.
Chlorinated paraffins are practically insoluble in water, although they can form emulsions and/or suspensions



PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PARAFFIN:
Chlorinated paraffins have been produced commercially since the 1930s.
These mixtures of chlorinated n-alkanes are produced by reacting normal paraffin fractions obtained from petroleum distillation with gaseous chlorine exothermically at 80–120°C in the liquid phase.

Ultraviolet light is often used to promote chlorination, particularly at higher chlorine levels.
The linings of the reactor vessels must be inert to avoid the formation of metal chlorides, which cause darkening of the product by decomposition.
Production of resinous chlorinated paraffins (70% chlorine content) requires the use of a solvent such as carbon tetrachloride during chlorination.
Additional procedures include solvent stripping and grinding of the products as necessary.

Approximately 45 000 tonnes of chlorinated paraffins were produced in the USA in 1987.
In 1985, 95 000 tonnes were produced in western Europe (SRI International, 1986) and more than 300 000 tonnes worldwide.
Chlorinated paraffins are produced in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Czechoslovakia, China, the Federal Republic of Germany, France, the German Democratic Republic, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Poland, Romania, Spain, South Africa, Taiwan, the UK, the USA and the USSR.



WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ORDINARY PARAFFIN AND CHLORINATED PARAFFIN?
The difference between chlorinated paraffin and paraffin is that chlorinated paraffin is a chlorinated derivative of paraffin hydrocarbons, and their uses are different.
Chlorinated paraffin is a chlorinated derivative of paraffin hydrocarbon, which has the advantages of low volatility, flame retardancy, good electrical insulation, and low price.

Chlorinated paraffin can be used as a flame retardant and an auxiliary plasticizer for PVC.

Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s are a class of chemicals used for a variety of applications. They can be classified according to the length of their chlorine chains, and commercial formulations may include a mix of compounds in this class. CAS 106232-86-4 is considered a Long Chain Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin) (LCCP), with 24 chlorine atoms. The long form is less environmentally sensitive than short-length varieties. Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin) is largely inert, almost insoluble in water, and flame retardant. It can function as a plasticizing additive to for metal lubricants and cutting fluids, plastics, rubber, paint, adhesives, and more. Most of the world’s Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin) is produced in China. Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s are slowly absorbed by the dermal route in Sprague-Dawley rats. Two (14)C-labeled Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s, C18;50-53% Cl (CP-LH) and C28;47% Cl (CP-LL), were applied to rat skin (5-7 animals of each sex) at a concentration of 66 mg/sq cm, approximately equivalent to 2000 mg/kg body weight. Only 0.7% (males) and 0.6% (females) of the C18 dose was absorbed after 96 hr. Only 0.02% of the C28 dose was absorbed in males whereas in females the level was not detectable. This indicates that increasing chain length leads to decreased permeability. Of the absorbed C18 dose, 40% was exhaled as (14)C-labeled CO2, and 20% was excreted in urine and 20% in feces. /Long chain length Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s/ The absorption of two Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s through human skin has been studied in vitro. There was no absorption of Cereclor S52 (C14-19;52% Cl, CP-MH) following a 54-hr application to the surface of the epidermal membranes using five different receptor media. Similarly, using Cereclor 56L (C10-13; 56% Cl, CP-SH; 18.5% w/w solution in a typical cutting oil) no absorption was detected for 7 hr, but after 23 hr a slow but steady rate of absorption was detected (e.g., 0.05 +/- 0.01 ug/sq cm per hr +/- SEM; n = 6; receptor medium PEG-20 oleyl ether in saline), which was maintained for the duration of the experiment (56 hr). Owing to the anticipated low rate of absorption, the Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin) samples were spiked with [(14)C] n-pentadecane and [(14)C] n-undecane for Cereclor S52 and 56L, respectively, in order to facilitate detection of the absorbed material. Measurement of the (14)C-alkanes was taken as a surrogate for the Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s, on the assumption that their rates of absorption were similar. Female C57Bl mice were administered 12.5 MBq/kg body weight (340 uCi) (for autoradiography) or 1.25 MBq/kg body weight (34 uCi) (for determination of radioactivity) of (14)C-labeled chlorododecanes (C12) with different chlorine contents (17.5% [CP-SL], 55.9% [CP-SH] and 68.5% [CP-SH]) either by gavage or intravenous injection. Uptake of radioactivity was found by autoradiography to be highest in tissues with high cell turnover/high metabolic activity, e.g., intestinal mucosa, bone marrow, salivary glands, thymus and liver. The highest radioactivity was achieved with the Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin) that had the lowest chlorine content. It was found that the long period of retention of heptane-soluble radioactivity, which indicated unmetabolized substance, in liver and fat after oral dosing increased with degree of chlorination. In this study it was also found that 30 to 60 days after injection of C12;17.5% Cl and C12;55.9% Cl a considerable retention of radioactivity was seen in the central nervous system. Exposure of late gestation mice showed a transplacental passage of radioactivity, and (14)C-labeling was primarily noted in the liver, brown fat and intestine of the fetuses. /short chain length Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)/ (14)C-Labeled [1-(14)C]polychlorohexadecane (C16;34.1% Cl, CP-ML) was given to C57Bl mice either by gavage (females) or intravenously (both sexes) at a radioactivity level of 370 kBq/animal (10 uCi) (corresponding to 0.44 umol of the Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)). No difference in the distribution patterns was found between the oral and intravenous administration routes. After analysis by autoradiography a high level of radioactivity was found in tissues with a high cell turnover rate and/or high metabolic activity, and lower levels could be seen in the white fat depots. High levels of radioactivity were observed in the liver, kidneys, spleen, bone marrow, brown fat, intestinal mucosa, pancreas, salivary gland and the Harderian gland 24 hr after intravenous injection. After 12 days high levels of radioactivity were seen in the adrenal cortex, abdominal fat and in the bile. Later after injection (30 days), prominent radiolabeling of the brain was found which was as high as in the liver. The Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin) was also administered intravenously to pregnant mice, and uptake of radioactivity in the fetuses was observed. When the mice were administered on day 10 of pregnancy no tissue-specific localization was found, but after administration in late pregnancy (day 17) the distribution pattern after 6 hr was similar to that of adult mice when examined 24 hr after administration. /Intermediate chain length Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)/ /It was/ demonstrated that inducers and inhibitors of cytochrome P-450 (CYP) affect the rate of degradation of (14)C-labeled polychlorinated dodecanes (C12) containing 68.5% (CP-SH), 55.9% (CP-SH) and 17.4% Cl (CP-SL) to (14)CO2 in exposed C57Bl mice. Pretreatment with the inhibitor piperonyl butoxide decreased the amount of (14)CO2 formed, and the decrease was more pronounced with increasing degree of chlorination. The inhibitor metyrapone decreased the exhalation of (14)CO2 but was only investigated in mice exposed to C12;68.5% Cl. The cytochrome P-450 (CYP2B1; CYP2B2) inducer, phenobarbital, moderately increased the rate of (14)CO2 formation from Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin) with 68% Cl, whereas the P-448 (CYP1A1; CYP1A2) inducer, 3-methylcholanthrene, did not affect the degradation rate, indicating a cytochrome P-450-dependent metabolism of chlorinated dodecanes yielding (14)CO2. /Short chain length Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)/ CHEMICAL PROFILE: Chlorinate paraffins: Major uses: Metal working fluids and lubricants, 50 percent; plastics additives, 20 percent; rubber, 12 percent; coatings, 9 percent; caulks, sealants and adhesives, 6 percent; miscellaneous, 3 percent.

Uses of Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s : Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s are used as secondary plasticizers for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and can partially replace primary plasticizers such as phthalates and phosphate esters. The use of Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s has the advantage in comparison with conventional plasticizers of both increasing the flexibility of the material as well as increasing its flame retardancy and low-temperature strength. Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s are also used as extreme pressure additives in metal- machining fluids or as metal working lubricants or cutting oils because of their viscous nature, compatibility with oils, and property of releasing hydrochloric acid at elevated temperatures. The hydrochloric acid reacts with metal surfaces to form a thin but strong solid film of metal chloride lubricant. They are added to paints, coatings and sealants to improve resistance to water and chemicals, which is most suitable when they are used in marine paints, as coatings for industrial flooring, vessels and swimming pools (e.g., rubber and chlorinated rubber coatings), and as road marking paints. The flame-retarding properties of highly Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s make them important as additives in plastics, fabrics, paints and coatings. The most effective fire-retardant action is obtained with a high degree of chlorination. By the late 1970s approximately 50% of Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s in the USA was used as extreme pressure lubricant additives in the metal-working industry; 25% was used in plastics and fire-retardant and water- repellant fabric treatments, and the rest was used in paint, rubber, caulks and sealants In the United Kingdom, 65-70% of the consumed Chlorinated Paraffin (CHLORINATED PARAFFIN, CP, Klorlu Parafin)s is used as a secondary plasticizer in PVC, about

The compound has been fraudulently marketed as an ingestible cure for a wide range of diseases, including childhood autism[6] and COVID-19.[7][8][9] Children who have been given enemas of Chlorine dioxide %3 as a supposed cure for childhood autism have suffered life-threatening ailments.[6] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has stated that ingestion or other internal use of Chlorine dioxide %3 (other than perhaps oral rinsing under dentist supervision) has no health benefits and it should not be used internally for any reason.[10][11] Contents 1 Structure and bonding 2 Preparation 2.1 Oxidation of chlorite 2.2 Reduction of chlorate 2.3 Other processes 3 Handling properties 4 Uses 4.1 Bleaching 4.2 Water treatment 4.3 Use in public crises 4.4 Other disinfection uses 4.5 Pseudomedicine 4.6 Other uses 5 Safety issues in water and supplements 6 References 7 External links Structure and bonding Comparison of three-electron bond to the conventional covalent bond The two resonance structures Chlorine dioxide %3 is a neutral chlorine compound. It is very different from elemental chlorine, both in its chemical structure and in its behavior.[12] One of the most important qualities of Chlorine dioxide %3 is its high water solubility, especially in cold water. Chlorine dioxide %3 does not hydrolyze when it enters water; it remains a dissolved gas in solution. Chlorine dioxide %3 is approximately 10 times more soluble in water than chlorine.[12] The molecule ClO2 has an odd number of valence electrons, and therefore, it is a paramagnetic radical. Its electronic structure has long baffled chemists because none of the possible Lewis structures is very satisfactory. In 1933, L. O. Brockway proposed a structure that involved a three-electron bond.[13] Chemist Linus Pauling further developed this idea and arrived at two resonance structures involving a double bond on one side and a single bond plus three-electron bond on the other.[14] In Pauling's view the latter combination should represent a bond that is slightly weaker than the double bond. In molecular orbital theory this idea is commonplace if the third electron is placed in an anti-bonding orbital. Later work has confirmed that the highest occupied molecular orbital is indeed an incompletely-filled antibonding orbital.[15] Preparation Chlorine dioxide %3 is a compound that can decompose extremely violently when separated from diluting substances. As a result, preparation methods that involve producing solutions of it without going through a gas-phase stage are often preferred. Arranging handling in a safe manner is essential. Oxidation of chlorite In the laboratory, ClO2 can be prepared by oxidation of sodium chlorite with chlorine:[16] 2 NaClO2 + Cl2 → 2 ClO2 + 2 NaCl Traditionally, Chlorine dioxide %3 for disinfection applications has been made from sodium chlorite or the sodium chlorite–hypochlorite method: 2 NaClO2 + 2 HCl + NaOCl → 2 ClO2 + 3 NaCl + H2O or the sodium chlorite–hydrochloric acid method: 5 NaClO2 + 4 HCl → 5 NaCl + 4 ClO2 + 2 H2O or the chlorite–sulfuric acid method: 4 ClO− 2 + 2 H2SO4 → 2 ClO2 + HClO3 + 2 SO2− 4 + H2O + HCl All three methods can produce Chlorine dioxide %3 with high chlorite conversion yield. Unlike the other processes, the chlorite–sulfuric acid method produces completely chlorine-free Chlorine dioxide %3, although it suffers from the requirement of 25% more chlorite to produce an equivalent amount of Chlorine dioxide %3. Alternatively, hydrogen peroxide may be efficiently used in small-scale applications.[12] Reduction of chlorate In the laboratory, Chlorine dioxide %3 can also be prepared by reaction of potassium chlorate with oxalic acid: 2 KClO3 + 2 H2C2O4 → K2C2O4 + 2 ClO2 + 2 CO2 + 2 H2O 2 KClO3 + H2C2O4 + 2 H2SO4 → 2 KHSO4 + 2 ClO2 + 2 CO2 + 2 H2O Over 95% of the Chlorine dioxide %3 produced in the world today is made by reduction of sodium chlorate, for use in pulp bleaching. It is produced with high efficiency in a strong acid solution with a suitable reducing agent such as methanol, hydrogen peroxide, hydrochloric acid or sulfur dioxide.[12] Modern technologies are based on methanol or hydrogen peroxide, as these chemistries allow the best economy and do not co-produce elemental chlorine. The overall reaction can be written as:[17] chlorate + acid + reducing agent → Chlorine dioxide %3 + by-products As a typical example, the reaction of sodium chlorate with hydrochloric acid in a single reactor is believed to proceed through the following pathway: which gives the overall reaction The commercially more important production route uses methanol as the reducing agent and sulfuric acid for the acidity. Two advantages of not using the chloride-based processes are that there is no formation of elemental chlorine, and that sodium sulfate, a valuable chemical for the pulp mill, is a side-product. These methanol-based processes provide high efficiency and can be made very safe.[12] The variant process using chlorate, hydrogen peroxide and sulfuric acid has been increasingly used since 1999 for water treatment and other small-scale disinfection applications, since it produce a chlorine-free product at high efficiency. Other processes Very pure Chlorine dioxide %3 can also be produced by electrolysis of a chlorite solution:[18] 2 NaClO2 + 2 H2O → 2 ClO2 + 2 NaOH + H2 High-purity Chlorine dioxide %3 gas (7.7% in air or nitrogen) can be produced by the gas–solid method, which reacts dilute chlorine gas with solid sodium chlorite:[18] 2 NaClO2 + Cl2 → 2 ClO2 + 2 NaCl Handling properties At partial pressures above 10 kPa[12] (or gas-phase concentrations greater than 10% volume in air at STP), ClO2 may explosively decompose into chlorine and oxygen. The decomposition can be initiated by light, hot spots, chemical reaction, or pressure shock. Thus, Chlorine dioxide %3 gas is never handled in concentrated form, but is almost always handled as a dissolved gas in water in a concentration range of 0.5 to 10 grams per liter. Its solubility increases at lower temperatures, thus it is common to use chilled water (5 °C) when storing at concentrations above 3 grams per liter. In many countries, such as the United States, Chlorine dioxide %3 gas may not be transported at any concentration and is almost always produced at the application site using a Chlorine dioxide %3 generator.[12] In some countries,[which?] Chlorine dioxide %3 solutions below 3 grams per liter in concentration may be transported by land, however, they are relatively unstable and deteriorate quickly. Uses Chlorine dioxide %3 is used for bleaching of wood pulp and for the disinfection (called chlorination) of municipal drinking water.[19][20]:4–1[21] As a disinfectant, it is effective even at low concentrations because of its unique qualities.[12][20] Bleaching Chlorine dioxide %3 is sometimes used for bleaching of wood pulp in combination with chlorine, but it is used alone in ECF (elemental chlorine-free) bleaching sequences. It is used at moderately acidic pH (3.5 to 6). The use of Chlorine dioxide %3 minimizes the amount of organochlorine compounds produced.[22] Chlorine dioxide %3 (ECF technology) currently is the most important bleaching method worldwide. About 95% of all bleached kraft pulp is made using Chlorine dioxide %3 in ECF bleaching sequences.[23] Chlorine dioxide %3 has been used to bleach flour.[24] Water treatment Further information: Water chlorination and Portable water purification § Chlorine dioxide %3 The Niagara Falls, New York, water treatment plant first used Chlorine dioxide %3 for drinking water treatment in 1944 for destroying "taste and odor producing phenolic compounds".[20]:4–17[21] Chlorine dioxide %3 was introduced as a drinking water disinfectant on a large scale in 1956, when Brussels, Belgium, changed from chlorine to Chlorine dioxide %3.[21] Its most common use in water treatment is as a pre-oxidant prior to chlorination of drinking water to destroy natural water impurities that would otherwise produce trihalomethanes on exposure to free chlorine.[25][26][27] Trihalomethanes are suspect carcinogenic disinfection by-products[28] associated with chlorination of naturally occurring organics in the raw water.[27] Chlorine dioxide %3 is also superior to chlorine when operating above pH 7,[20]:4–33 in the presence of ammonia and amines[citation needed] and for the control of biofilms in water distribution systems.[27] Chlorine dioxide %3 is used in many industrial water treatment applications as a biocide including cooling towers, process water, and food processing.[29] Chlorine dioxide %3 is less corrosive than chlorine and superior for the control of Legionella bacteria.[21][30] Chlorine dioxide %3 is superior to some other secondary water disinfection methods in that Chlorine dioxide %3 is an EPA-registered biocide, is not negatively impacted by pH, does not lose efficacy over time (the bacteria will not grow resistant to it), and is not negatively impacted by silica and phosphates, which are commonly used potable water corrosion inhibitors. It is more effective as a disinfectant than chlorine in most circumstances against waterborne pathogenic agents such as viruses,[31] bacteria and protozoa – including the cysts of Giardia and the oocysts of Cryptosporidium.[20]:4–20–4–21 The use of Chlorine dioxide %3 in water treatment leads to the formation of the by-product chlorite, which is currently limited to a maximum of 1 part per million in drinking water in the USA.[20]:4–33 This EPA standard limits the use of Chlorine dioxide %3 in the US to relatively high-quality water because this minimizes chlorite concentration, or water that is to be treated with iron-based coagulants (iron can reduce chlorite to chloride).[citation needed] Use in public crises Chlorine dioxide %3 has many applications as an oxidizer or disinfectant.[12] Chlorine dioxide %3 can be used for air disinfection[32] and was the principal agent used in the decontamination of buildings in the United States after the 2001 anthrax attacks.[33] After the disaster of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, Louisiana, and the surrounding Gulf Coast, Chlorine dioxide %3 was used to eradicate dangerous mold from houses inundated by the flood water.[34] In addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has posted a list of many disinfectants that meet its criteria for use in environmental measures against the causative coronavirus.[35][36] Some are based on sodium chlorite that is activated into Chlorine dioxide %3, though differing formulations are used in each product. Many other products on the EPA list contain sodium hypochlorite, which is similar in name but should not be confused with sodium chlorite because they have very different modes of chemical action. Other disinfection uses Chlorine dioxide %3 may be used as a fumigant treatment to "sanitize" fruits such as blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries that develop molds and yeast.[37] Chlorine dioxide %3 may be used to disinfect poultry by spraying or immersing it after slaughtering.[38] Chlorine dioxide %3 may be used for the disinfection of endoscopes, such as under the trade name Tristel.[39] It is also available in a trio consisting of a preceding pre-clean with surfactant and a succeeding rinse with deionized water and a low-level antioxidant.[40] Chlorine dioxide %3 may be used for control of zebra and quagga mussels in water intakes.[20]:4–34 Chlorine dioxide %3 was shown to be effective in bedbug eradication.[41] Pseudomedicine See also: Miracle Mineral Supplement Chlorine dioxide %3 is fraudulently marketed as a magic cure for a range of diseases from brain cancer to AIDS. Enemas of Chlorine dioxide %3 are a supposed cure for childhood autism, resulting in complaints to the FDA reporting life-threatening reactions,[42] and even death.[43] Chlorine dioxide %3 is relabelled to a variety of brand names including, but not limited to MMS, Miracle Mineral Solution and CD protocol.[44] There is no scientific basis for Chlorine dioxide %3's medical properties and FDA has warned against its usage.[45][46] Other uses Chlorine dioxide %3 is used as an oxidant for destroying phenols in wastewater streams and for odor control in the air scrubbers of animal byproduct (rendering) plants.[20]:4–34 It is also available for use as a deodorant for cars and boats, in Chlorine dioxide %3-generating packages that are activated by water and left in the boat or car overnight. Safety issues in water and supplements Chlorine dioxide %3 is toxic, hence limits on exposure to it are needed to ensure its safe use. The United States Environmental Protection Agency has set a maximum level of 0.8 mg/L for Chlorine dioxide %3 in drinking water.[47] The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), an agency of the United States Department of Labor, has set an 8-hour permissible exposure limit of 0.1 ppm in air (0.3 mg/m3) for people working with Chlorine dioxide %3.[48] On July 30, 2010, and again on October 1, 2010, the United States Food and Drug Administration warned against the use of the product "Miracle Mineral Supplement", or "MMS", which when made up according to instructions produces Chlorine dioxide %3. MMS has been marketed as a treatment for a variety of conditions, including HIV, cancer, autism, and acne. The FDA warnings informed consumers that MMS can cause serious harm to health and stated that it has received numerous reports of nausea, diarrhea, severe vomiting, and life-threatening low blood pressure caused by dehydration.[49][50] This warning was repeated for a third time on 12 August 2019, and a fourth on April 8, 2020, stating that ingesting MMS is the same as drinking bleach, and urging consumers to not use them or give these products to their children for any reason.[46] Chlorine dioxide %3 Chlorine dioxide %3 (ClO2) is a chemical compound consisting of one chlorine atom and two oxygen atoms. It is a reddish to yellowish-green gas at room temperature that dissolves in water. It is used for a variety of antimicrobial uses, including the disinfection of drinking water. Chlorine dioxide %3 gas is usually produced onsite from sodium chlorate or sodium chlorite.

Legionella pneumophila bacteria can cause Legionnaires’ disease, a potentially deadly type of pneumonia. Chlorine dioxide %3 is not a cure or treatment for medical ailments, including but not limited to autism, HIV, malaria, hepatitis viruses, influenza, common colds, and cancer. Claims that the ingestion of Chlorine dioxide %3, often advertised as “Miracle Mineral Solution” or MMS, will cure these or other ailments are false. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advises MMS should not be consumed. Uses & BenefitsSafety Information Back to Top Safety Information Chlorine dioxide %3 is used to disinfect drinking water around the world. According to U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Chlorine dioxide %3 is added to drinking water to protect people from harmful bacteria and other microorganisms. EPA recognizes Chlorine dioxide %3 use as a drinking water disinfectant, and it is included in the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality. In its pure form, Chlorine dioxide %3 is a hazardous gas but most people are “not likely” to breathe air containing dangerous levels of Chlorine dioxide %3 as it rapidly breaks down in air to chlorine gas and oxygen. For workers who use Chlorine dioxide %3, the U.S. Occupational Safety and Hazard Administration (OSHA) regulates the level of Chlorine dioxide %3 in workplace air for safety. OSHA has set a Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) for Chlorine dioxide %3 at 0.1 parts per million (ppm), or 0.3 milligrams (mg) per cubic meters (m3) for workers using Chlorine dioxide %3 for general industrial purposes. OSHA also has a PEL for Chlorine dioxide %3 for the construction industry. Chlorine dioxide %3 is always made at the location where it is used. Uses & BenefitsSafety Information Back to Top Answering Questions How is Chlorine dioxide %3 used in water treatment? According to EPA, Chlorine dioxide %3 is used “in public water-treatment facilities, to make water safe for drinking.” When Chlorine dioxide %3 is added to drinking water, it helps destroy bacteria, viruses and some types of parasites that can make people sick, such as Cryptosporidium parvum and Giardia lamblia. Is Chlorine dioxide %3 a miracle cure for numerous diseases and illnesses? No. Claims that Chlorine dioxide %3 is a treatment or cure for medical ailments such as autism, HIV, malaria, hepatitis viruses, influenza, common colds, cancer, or other diseases/ailments are not backed by science. Consumption of Chlorine dioxide %3 solutions, such as MMS, can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and severe dehydration. These products should not be consumed or given to someone to consume. The sale of these products as miracle cures is dangerous and has resulted in criminal convictions. Does Chlorine dioxide %3 remove odor?

It is also used in some personal hygiene products. For example, Chlorine dioxide %3 can be used in mouthwashes and dentistry products as an oxidizing biocide compound to treat bad breath. Disinfectants Chlorine dioxide %3 discovery characteristics storage production applications drinking water swimming pools disinfectant disinfection health effects advantages and disadvantages legislation Chlorine dioxide %3 in bags Chlorine dioxide %3 Chlorine dioxide %3 is mainly used as a bleach. As a disinfectant it is effective even at low concentrations, because of its unique qualities. Figure 1: sir Humphrey Day discovered Chlorine dioxide %3 in 1814. When was Chlorine dioxide %3 discovered? Chlorine dioxide %3 was discovered in 1814 by Sir Humphrey Davy. He produced the gas by pouring sulphuric acid (H2SO4) on potassium chlorate (KClO3). Than he replaced sulphuric acid by hypochlorous acid (HOCl). In the last few years this reaction has also been used to produce large quantities of Chlorine dioxide %3. Sodium chlorate (NaClO3) was used instead of potassium chlorate. 2NaClO3 + 4HCl ® 2ClO2 + Cl2 + 2NaCl + 2H2O What are the characteristics of Chlorine dioxide %3 ? Chlorine dioxide %3 (ClO2) is a synthetic, green-yellowish gas with a chlorine-like, irritating odor. Chlorine dioxide %3 is a neutral chlorine compound. Chlorine dioxide %3 is very different from elementary chlorine, both in its chemical structure as in its behavior. Chlorine dioxide %3 is a small, volatile and very strong molecule. In diluted, watery solutions Chlorine dioxide %3 is a free radical. At high concentrations it reacts strongly with reducing agents. Chlorine dioxide %3 is an unstable gas that dissociates into chlorine gas (Cl2), oxygen gas (O2) and heat. When Chlorine dioxide %3 is photo-oxidized by sunlight, it falls apart. The end-products of Chlorine dioxide %3 reactions are chloride (Cl-), chlorite (ClO-) and chlorate (ClO3-). At –59°C, solid Chlorine dioxide %3 becomes a reddish liquid. At 11°C Chlorine dioxide %3 turns into gas. Chlorine dioxide %3 is 2,4 times denser than air. As a liquid Chlorine dioxide %3 has a bigger density than water. Can Chlorine dioxide %3 be dissolved in water? One of the most important qualities of Chlorine dioxide %3 is its high water solubility, especially in cold water. Chlorine dioxide %3 does not hydrolyze when it enters water; it remains a dissolved gas in solution. Chlorine dioxide %3 is approximately 10 times more soluble in water than chlorine. Chlorine dioxide %3 can be removed by aeration or carbon dioxide. Table 1: the solubility of Chlorine dioxide %3 in water How can Chlorine dioxide %3 be stored? The best way to store Chlorine dioxide %3 is as a liquid at 4 ºC. At this state it is fairly stable. Chlorine dioxide %3 cannot be stored for too long, because it slowly dissociates into chlorine and oxygen. It is rarely stored as a gas, because it is explosive under pressure. When concentrations are higher than 10% Chlorine dioxide %3 in air, there is an explosion hazard. In a watery solution, Chlorine dioxide %3 remain stable and soluble. Watery solutions containing approximately 1% ClO2 (10 g/L) can safely be stored, under the condition that they are protected from light and heat interference. Chlorine dioxide %3 is rarely transported, because of its explosiveness and instability. It is usually manufactured on site. How is Chlorine dioxide %3 produced? Chlorine dioxide %3 is explosive under pressure. It is difficult to transport and is usually manufactured on site. Chlorine dioxide %3 is usually produced as a watery solution or gas. It is produced in acidic solutions of sodium chlorite (NaClO2), or sodium chlorate (NaClO3). For large installations sodium chlorite, chlorine gas (Cl2), sodium hydrogen chlorite (NaHClO2) and sulphuric or hydrogen acid are used for the production of Chlorine dioxide %3 on site. To produce Chlorine dioxide %3 gas, hydrochloric acid (HCl) or chlorine is brought together with sodium chlorite. The to main reactions are: 2NaClO2 + Cl2 ® 2ClO2 + 2NaCl (Acidified hypochlorite can also be used as an alternative source for chlorine.) And: 5 NaClO2 + 4HCl ® 4 ClO2 + 5NaCl + 2H2O (One disadvantage of this method is that it is rather hazardous.) An alternative is: 2 NaClO2 + Na2S2O8 ® 2ClO2 + 2Na2SO4 Chlorine dioxide %3 can also be produced by the reaction of sodium hypochlorite with hydrochloric acid: HCl + NaOCl + 2NaClO2 ® 2ClO2 + 2NaCl + NaOH The amount Chlorine dioxide %3 that is produced varies between 0 and 50 g/L. What are the applications of Chlorine dioxide %3? Chlorine dioxide %3 has many applications. It is used in the electronics industry to clean circuit boards, in the oil industry to treat sulfides and to bleach textile and candles. In World War II, chlorine became scarce and Chlorine dioxide %3 was used as a bleach. Nowadays Chlorine dioxide %3 is used most often to bleach paper. It produces a clearer and stronger fiber than chlorine does. Chlorine dioxide %3 has the advantage that it produces less harmful byproducts than chlorine. Chlorine dioxide %3 gas is used to sterilize medical and laboratory equipment, surfaces, rooms and tools. Chlorine dioxide %3 can be used as oxidizer or disinfectant. It is a very strong oxidizer and it effectively kills pathogenic microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria and viruses. It also prevents and removes bio film. As a disinfectant and pesticide it is mainly used in liquid form. Chlorine dioxide %3 can also be used against anthrax, because it is effective against spore-forming bacteria. Chlorine dioxide %3 as an oxidizer As an oxidizer Chlorine dioxide %3 is very selective. It has this ability due to unique one-electron exchange mechanisms. Chlorine dioxide %3 attacks the electron-rich centers of organic molecules. One electron is transferred and Chlorine dioxide %3 is reduced to chlorite (ClO2- ). Figure 2: Chlorine dioxide %3 is more selective as an oxidizer than chlorine. While dosing the same concentrations, the residual concentration of Chlorine dioxide %3 is much higher with heavy pollution than the residual concentration of chlorine. By comparing the oxidation strength and oxidation capacity of different disinfectants, one can conclude that Chlorine dioxide %3 is effective at low concentrations. Chlorine dioxide %3 is not as reactive as ozone or chlorine and it only reacts with sulphuric substances, amines and some other reactive organic substances. In comparison to chlorine and ozone, less Chlorine dioxide %3 is required to obtain an active residual disinfectant. It can also be used when a large amount of organic matter is present. The oxidation strength describes how strongly an oxidizer reacts with an oxidizable substance. Ozone has the highest oxidation strength and reacts with every substance that can be oxidized. Chlorine dioxide %3 is weak, it has a lower potential than hypochlorous acid or hypobromous acid. The oxidation capacity shows how many electrons are transferred at an oxidation or reduction reaction. The chlorine atom in Chlorine dioxide %3 has an oxidation number of +4. For this reason Chlorine dioxide %3 accepts 5 electrons when it is reduced to chloride. When we look at the molecular weight, Chlorine dioxide %3 contains 263 % 'available chlorine'; this is more than 2,5 times the oxidation capacity of chlorine.

Formula and Structure of Chlorolithium:
The chemical formula of Chlorolithium is LiCl.
Chlorolithium has a molar mass of 42.394 g/mol.
On molecular level the positively charged lithium-ion ( Li+ ) reacts with the negatively charged chloride ion ( Cl− ) to form Chlorolithium (LiCl).

Formula:
When the positively charged lithium-ion (Li+) reacts with the negatively charged chloride ion (Cl−) then the obtained formula is known as Chlorolithium (LiCl).
The molecule is formed by one lithium cation Li+ and one chlorine anion Cl–.

The molar mass of Chlorolithium is 42.39 g/mol.
The chemical and molecular formula of Chlorolithium is LiCl.

Structure:
Chlorolithium is an ionic compound in which lithium is a metal compound and chloride is a nonmetal compound.
Where electrons are transferred from metal ion to nonmetal ion.
In this type of structure, one electron is transferred by lithium and Chlorolithium becomes electropositive chlorine gain one electron then Chlorolithium becomes electronegative.

Manufacturing Methods of Chlorolithium:
Chlorolithium can be extracted from other alkali-metal chlorides with amyl alcohol.

By reaction of lithium carbonate and hydrochloric acid, with special steel or nickel equipment because of the extreme corrosivity of Chlorolithium.
Concentration of the solution (eg, in a vacuum evaporator) causes Chlorolithium to crystallize.

Preparation of Chlorolithium:
Chlorolithium is produced by treatment of lithium carbonate with hydrochloric acid.
Anhydrous Chlorolithium is prepared from the hydrate by heating in a stream of hydrogen chloride.

Precautions of Chlorolithium:
Lithium salts affect the central nervous system in a variety of ways.
While the citrate, carbonate, and orotate salts are currently used to treat bipolar disorder, other lithium salts including the chloride were used in the past.

For a short time in the 1940s Chlorolithium was manufactured as a salt substitute for people with hypertension, but this was prohibited after the toxic effects of Chlorolithium (tremors, fatigue, nausea) were recognized.
Chlorolithium was, however, noted by J. H. Talbott that many symptoms attributed to Chlorolithium toxicity may have also been attributable to sodium chloride deficiency, to the diuretics often administered to patients who were given Chlorolithium, or to the patients' underlying conditions.

Pharmacology and Biochemistry of Chlorolithium:

MeSH Pharmacological Classification:

Adjuvants, Immunologic:
Substances that augment, stimulate, activate, potentiate, or modulate the immune response at either the cellular or humoral level.
The classical agents (Freund's adjuvant, BCG, Corynebacterium parvum, et al.) contain bacterial antigens.
Some are endogenous (e.g., histamine, interferon, transfer factor, tuftsin, interleukin-1).

Their mode of action is either non-specific, resulting in increased immune responsiveness to a wide variety of antigens, or antigen-specific, i.e., affecting a restricted type of immune response to a narrow group of antigens.
The therapeutic efficacy of many biological response modifiers is related to their antigen-specific immunoadjuvanticity.

Action Mechanism of Chlorolithium:
Intraperitoneal Chlorolithium (LiCl) induces transient expression of inducible cAMP early repressor (ICER) and c-fos mRNAs in the rat adrenal cortex and increases plasma level of corticosterone.
The cortical expression of ICER mRNA by Chlorolithium occurs in a dose-dependent manner.

Adrenal induction of ICER expression is delayed compared with c-fos expression.
Dexamethasone pretreatment (4 mg/kg) blocks corticosterone release and adrenocortical ICER induction either by systemic Chlorolithium (76 mg/kg) or by restraint stress.
Intracerebroventricular Chlorolithium (127 ug/5 uL) is sufficient for adrenocortical, but not medullary, ICER induction.

Lithium, through modulating basic cellular signalling pathways, is capable of modulating several neurotransmitter systems in the brain such as cholinergic, serotonergic, noradrenergic and dopaminergic pathways.
Lithium may also slightly alter the reuptake and presynaptic storage of catecholamines in directions consistent with incr inactivation of the amines.

In animal brain tissue, Li+ at concn of 1 to 10 mEq/L inhibits the depolarization-provoked and Ca+2-dependent release of norepinephrine and dopamine, but not serotonin, from nerve terminals.
Li+ may even enhance the release of serotonin, especially in the limbic system, at least transiently.

The ion has little effect on catecholamine-sensitive adenylyl cyclase activity or on the binding of ligands to monoamine receptors in brain tissue, although there is some evidence that Li+ can inhibit the effects of receptor-blocking agents that cause supersensitivity in such systems.
Li+ can modify some hormonal responses mediated by adenylyl cyclase or phospholipase C in other tissues, including the actions of antidiuretic and thyroid-stimulating hormones on the actions of antidiuretic and thyroid-stimulating hormones on their peripheral target tissues.
In part, the actions of Li+ may reflect Chlorolithium ability to interfere with the activity of both stimulatory and inhibitory GTP-binding proteins (Gs and Gi) by keeping them in their less active alpha-beta-gamma trimer state.

Drug Warnings of Chlorolithium:
Lithium may also be absorbed via the lungs.
A systemic resorption of lithium was shown in a study on 27 intensive care unit patients, who were mechanically ventilated with lithium-chloride-coated heat and moisture exchangers for at least 5 days.

Serum lithium was non-detectable at the first measurement, whereas 0.01-0.05 mM appeared in the blood from the 1st to the 4th day.
In the following days, Chlorolithium remained at this level or increased to 0.1 mM.

After cessation of the mechanical ventilation, serum lithium levels went back to undetectable levels within a few days.
In a 7 year-old girl, the serum Li concentration rose to about 1 mM after a week, came back to 0.1 mM, rose to 3.9 mM on the 16th day and then returned to the usual low range (0.05-0.1 mM).
The authors calculated that for adults, the daily amount of Chlorolithium inhaled from a new heat and moisture exchanger (80% of the lithium content) can be considered equivalent to an oral dose of 100 mg/day of Chlorolithium or 16 mg Li/day.

Since the ion also is secreted in human milk, women receiving Li+ should not breast-feed infants.

A well-established regimen can be complicated by occasional periods of Na+ loss, as may occur with an intercurrent medical illness or with losses or restrictions of fluids and electrolytes; heavy sweating may be an exception due to a preferential secretion of Li+ over Na+ in sweat.
Hence, patients taking Li+ should have plasma concn checked at least occasionally.

Side effects including nausea, diarrhea, daytime drowsiness, polyuria, polydipsia, weight gain, fine hand tremor, and dermatological reactions including acne are common even in therapeutic dose ranges.

Handling and Storage of Chlorolithium:

Nonfire Spill Response:

SMALL SPILLS AND LEAKAGE:
If you spill this chemical, you should dampen the solid spill material with water, then transfer the dampened material to a suitable container.
Use absorbent paper dampened with water to pick up any remaining material.

Seal your contaminated clothing and the absorbent paper in a vapor-tight plastic bag for eventual disposal.
Wash all contaminated surfaces with a soap and water solution.
Do not reenter the contaminated area until the Safety Officer (or other responsible person) has verified that the area has been properly cleaned.

STORAGE PRECAUTIONS:
You should store this chemical under refrigerated temperatures, and protect Chlorolithium from moisture.

Reactivity Profile of Chlorolithium:
These materials have weak oxidizing or reducing powers.
Redox reactions can however still occur.
For example, CO2, which is often regarded as chemically inert, vigorously oxidizes the strong reducing agent Mg if the two are heated together.

The majority of compounds in this class are slightly soluble or insoluble in water.
If soluble in water, then the solutions are usually neither strongly acidic nor strongly basic.

These compounds are not water-reactive.
Some do react with acids: carbonates generate carbon dioxide and heat when treated with acids; fluorides, sulfites and sulfides generate toxic gases (hydrogen fluoride, sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, respectively) when treated with acids.

First Aid Measures of Chlorolithium:

EYES:
First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present.
Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center.

Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician.
If symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop, immediately transport the victim to a hospital.

SKIN:
IMMEDIATELY flood affected skin with water while removing and isolating all contaminated clothing.
Gently wash all affected skin areas thoroughly with soap and water.
If symptoms such as redness or irritation develop, IMMEDIATELY call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital for treatment.

INHALATION:
IMMEDIATELY leave the contaminated area; take deep breaths of fresh air.
If symptoms (such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, or burning in the mouth, throat, or chest) develop, call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital.

Provide proper respiratory protection to rescuers entering an unknown atmosphere.
Whenever possible, Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) should be used; if not available, use a level of protection greater than or equal to that advised under Protective Clothing.

INGESTION:
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
If the victim is conscious and not convulsing, give 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute the chemical and IMMEDIATELY call a hospital or poison control center.
Be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital if advised by a physician.

If the victim is convulsing or unconscious, do not give anything by mouth, ensure that the victim's airway is open and lay the victim on his/her side with the head lower than the body.
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim to a hospital.

Fire Fighting
Fires involving Chlorolithium can be controlled with a dry chemical, carbon dioxide or Halon extinguisher.

Accidental Release Measures of Chlorolithium:

Spillage Disposal:

Personal protection:
Particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of Chlorolithium.
Sweep spilled substance into covered containers.

If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting.
Carefully collect remainder.
Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

Disposal Methods:
The most favorable course of action is to use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational exposure or environmental contamination.
Recycle any unused portion of the material for Chlorolithium approved use or return Chlorolithium to the manufacturer or supplier.

Synthesis of Choline chloride:
In the laboratory, choline can be prepared by methylation of dimethylethanolamine with methyl chloride.

Choline chloride is mass-produced with world production estimated at 160 000 tons in 1999.
Industrially, Choline chloride is produced by the reaction of ethylene oxide, hydrogen chloride, and trimethylamine, or from the pre-formed salt.

Choline chloride can also be made by treating trimethylamine with 2-chloroethanol.

(CH3)3N + ClCH2CH2OH → [(CH3)3NCH2CH2OH]+Cl−

Production method of Choline chloride:
(1) Continuous method for preparation of choline chloride solution:
Continuously send the trimethylamine hydrochloride and a certain amount of ethylene oxide separately through pump into the reactor; the reactants had a residence time at the reactor of 1-1.5h; the reaction was carried out under stirring and has Choline chloride resulting product being continuously withdrawn so that the liquid level within the reactor remained stable.
The withdrawn choline chloride extraction crude product entered into the stripper to obtain 60-80% choline chloride liquid product from the bottom.

(2) Trimethylamine hydrochloride was reacted with ethylene oxide, and then added with an organic acid for neutralization and further concentration to obtain the choline chloride (3) Chloro-ethanol was reacted with trimethylamine to generate choline chloride.

(3)Ethylene oxide method:
Choline chloride can be made from the reaction between ethylene oxide and trimethylamine.
Add the trimethylamine ethanol solution into the reactor, send through ethylene oxide at about 30 ℃ and stirring reaction of 4 hour and further obtain Choline chloride through neutralization with hydrochloric acid (control PH at 6.5-7.0).

The yield of the crude product can be as high as 98%. The crude product can further be subject to activated carbon decolorizing and vacuum concentration to obtain 70% aqueous solution.
The aqueous solution was added with ground corn cobs, rice hull flour, wheat bran or diatomaceous earth and some other kinds of excipients and can give 50% of the powder.

(4) Chlorohydrin method:
Use chlorohydrin to substitute ethylene oxide and hydrochloric acid; have Choline chloride reacted with trimethylamine in the presence of a small amount of ethylene oxide or alkaline substance;
First add 100 parts of chlorohydrin into the reaction vessel, further add 130 parts of trimethylamine from the liquid surface, while supplying of ethylene oxide to trigger the reaction.

After the addition, stir at 32-38 ℃ for 4h with the yield being 84% (calculated from chlorohydrin).
For example, if catalyzed with an alkaline substance (such as quaternary ammonium salts), the one-way conversion rate can reach over 97%.
Trimethylamine methanol solution and chlorohydrin is subject to heating reaction, concentration under reduced pressure, and re-crystallization to generate it.

Biochem/physiol Actions of Choline chloride:
Choline is an essential nutrient, commonly grouped with the B complex vitamins, that plays key roles in many biological processes.

CHROMIC ACID
Chromic acid is an inorganic acid composed of the elements chromium, oxygen, and hydrogen.
Chromic acid is a dark, purplish red, odorless, sand-like solid powder.
When dissolved in water, Chromic acid is a strong acid.

CAS: 7738-94-5
MF: H2CrO4
MW: 118.01
EINECS: 231-801-5

Chromic acid generally refers to a collection of compounds generated by the acidification of solutions containing chromate and dichromate anions or the dissolving of chromium trioxide in sulfuric acid.
Chromic acid contains hexavalent chromium.
Hexavalent chromium refers to chromium in the +6 oxidation state, and is more toxic than other oxidation states of the chromium atom because of its greater ability to enter cells and a higher redox potential.
Molecular chromic acid, H2CrO4, has much in common with sulfuric acid, H2SO4 as both are classified as strong acids.

Chromic acid was widely used in the instrument repair industry, due to its ability to "brighten" raw brass.
A chromic acid dip leaves behind a bright yellow patina on the brass.
Due to growing health and environmental concerns, many have discontinued use of this chemical in their repair shops.
Most chromic acid sold or available as a 10% aqueous solution.

Chromic acid, CrO3, is composed of dark, purplish-red, odorless crystals that are soluble in water.
The specific gravity is 2.7, which is heavier than water.
Chromic acid is a powerful oxidizing agent and may explode on contact with organic materials.
Chromic acid is a poison, corrosive to the skin, and has a TLV of 0.05 mg/m3 of air.
Chromic acid is a known human carcinogen.
The four-digit UN identification number is 1463.
The NFPA 704 designation is health 3, flammability 0, and reactivity 1.
The white section at the bottom of the 704 diamond has an “oxy” prefix, indicating that Chromic acid is an oxidizer.
There are 2 types of chromic acid: molecular chromic acid with the formula H2CrO4 and dichromic acid with the formula H2Cr2O7.

The term chromic acid is usually used for a mixture made by adding concentrated sulfuric acid to a dichromate, which may contain a variety of compounds, including solid chromium trioxide.
This kind of chromic acid may be used as a cleaning mixture for glass.
Chromic acid may also refer to the molecular species, H2CrO4 of which the trioxide is the anhydride.
Chromic acid features chromium in an oxidation state of +6 (or VI).
Chromic acid is a strong and corrosive oxidising agent and a moderate carcinogen.
Chromic acid is a dark purplish-red odorless flakes or crystalline powder.

The name is in common use, although the true chromic acid, H2CrO4, exists only in solution.
Chromic acid is a dark purplish red solid, exists only in solution.
The hydrate of chromiumoxide, Chromic acid is used in electroplating baths.
Chromic acid is soluble in water with the release of heat.
The material itself is noncombustible but Chromic acid will accelerate the burning of combustible materials.
Chromic acid's solution is corrosive to metals and tissue.

Molecular chromic acid
Molecular chromic acid, H2CrO4, has much in common with sulfuric acid, H2SO4.
Only sulfuric acid can be classified as part of the 7 strong acids list.
Due to the laws pertinent to the concept of "first order ionization energy", the first proton is lost most easily.
Chromic acid behaves extremely similarly to sulfuric acid deprotonation.
Since the process of polyvalent acid-base titrations have more than one proton (especially when the acid is starting substance and the base is the titrant), protons can only leave an acid one at a time.
Hence the first step is as follows:

H2CrO4 ⇌ [HCrO4]− + H+
The pKa for the equilibrium is not well characterized.
Reported values vary between about −0.8 to 1.6.
The value at zero ionic strength is difficult to determine because half dissociation only occurs in very acidic solution, at about pH 0, that is, with an acid concentration of about 1 mol dm−3.
A further complication is that the ion [HCrO4]− has a marked tendency to dimerize, with the loss of a water molecule, to form the dichromate ion, [Cr2O7]2−:

2 [HCrO4]− ⇌ [Cr2O7]2− + H2Olog KD = 2.05.
Furthermore, the dichromate can be protonated:

[HCr2O7]− ⇌ [Cr2O7]2− + H+pK = 1.8
The pK value for this reaction shows that it can be ignored at pH > 4.

Loss of the second proton occurs in the pH range 4–8, making the ion [HCrO4]− a weak acid.
Molecular chromic acid could in principle be made by adding chromium trioxide to water (cf. manufacture of sulfuric acid).

CrO3 + H2O ⇌ H2CrO4
but in practice the reverse reaction occurs when molecular chromic acid is dehydrated.
This is what happens when concentrated sulfuric acid is added to a dichromate solution.
At first the colour changes from orange (dichromate) to red (chromic acid) and then deep red crystals of chromium trioxide precipitate from the mixture, without further colour change.
The colours are due to LMCT transitions.
Chromium trioxide is the anhydride of molecular chromic acid.

Main Functions of Citric acid:
pH regulator
Chelating agent
Buffering agent
Flavour enhancer
Stabiliser
Emulsifying agent

Properties of Citric acid:
Citric acid is in the form of a white, odorless powder with a slightly salty taste.
Citric acid occurs as a hydrate in combination with water.

Citric acid is characterized by the fact that Citric acid is hygroscopic, so Citric acid easily absorbs and combines with water.
Therefore, Citric acid should be stored under such conditions that Citric acid is protected from moisture.
Although Citric acid is a salt of an acid, Citric acid has an alkaline pH.

Typical Properties:
Dihydrate
White
Granular crystals or crystalline powder
Typical, practically odourless
Pleasantly salty
Freely soluble in water
Practically insoluble in ethanol (96 %)
Non-toxic
Low reactive
Chemically and microbiologically stable
Fully biodegradable

Action Mechanism of Citric acid:
Citric acid chelates free calcium ions preventing them from forming a complex with tissue factor and coagulation factor VIIa to promote the activation of coagulation factor X.
This inhibits the extrinsic initiation of the coagulation cascade.

Citric acid may also exert an anticoagulant effect via a so far unknown mechanism as restoration of calcium concentration does not fully reverse the effect of citrate.
Citric acid is a weak base and so reacts with hydrochloric acid in the stomach to raise the pH.

Citric acid Citric acid further metabolized to bicarbonate which then acts as a systemic alkalizing agent, raising the pH of the blood and urine.
Citric acid also acts as a diuretic and increases the urinary excretion of calcium.

Pharmacology and Biochemistry of Citric acid:

MeSH Pharmacological Classification:

Buffers:
A chemical system that functions to control the levels of specific ions in solution.
When the level of hydrogen ion in solution is controlled the system is called a pH buffer.

Food Preservatives:
Substances capable of inhibiting, retarding or arresting the process of fermentation, acidification or other deterioration of foods.

Anticoagulants:
Agents that prevent BLOOD CLOTTING.

Manufacturing Method of Citric acid:
Prepare the Citric acid buffer by mixing the Citric acid, hydrochloric acid, and ultrapure water together in a 2L beaker or conical flask.
Use a magnetic stirrer to ensure that all reagents are properly dissolved.

Adjust to pH 6.01 with the 0.5% (w/v) sodium hydroxide and 0.5% (v/v) hydrochloric acid solutions.
Add this solution to the pressure cooker.

Place the pressure cooker on the hotplate and turn Citric acid on to full power.
Do not secure the lid of the pressure cooker at this point; simply rest Citric acid on top.

While waiting for the pressure cooker to come to the boil, dewax and rehydrate the paraffin sections by placing them in three changes of xylene for 3 min each, followed by three changes of IMS or methanol for 3 min each, followed by cold running tap water.
Keep them in the tap water until the pressure cooker comes to the boil.

Once the pressure cooker is boiling, transfer the slides from the tap water to the pressure cooker.
Take care with the hot solution and steam—use forceps and gloves. Secure the pressure cooker lid following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Once the cooker has reached full pressure (see manufacturer’s instructions), time for 3 min.

When 3 min has elapsed, turn off the hotplate and place the pressure cooker in an empty sink.
Activate the pressure release valve (see the manufacturer’s instructions) and run cold water over the cooker.

Once depressurized, open the lid and run cold water into the cooker for 10 min.
Take care with the hot solution and steam.

Continue with an appropriate immunochemical staining protocol.
