Lanolin Ethoxylated

Lanolin Ethoxylated: Products and Properties

Lanolin Ethoxylated is a water-soluble, non-ionic lanolin derivative used in cosmetic, personal care and pharmaceutical formulations. Its solubilising, emulsifying and wetting properties make it particularly suitable for clear aqueous and hydroalcoholic formulations.

  • Fully water-soluble for clear, transparent formulations
  • Solubilising, emulsifying and wetting properties
  • Non-ionic and compatible with physiological electrolytes
  • Stable across a broad pH range of 2–10
  • Available as solid flakes or a 50% aqueous solution
  • Suitable for cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations

Lanis PEG 75 is available as solid flakes, while Lanis PEG 75/50 provides the same functionality as a 50% aqueous solution for easier handling.

Lanolin Ethoxylated: Applications and Benefits

Lanolin Ethoxylated is used in clear liquid cosmetics, aftershaves, cleansing lotions and other personal care formulations where water solubility and formulation clarity are required. It can also serve as a solubiliser in pharmaceutical microemulsions.

Its combination of solubilising, emulsifying and wetting properties supports the incorporation of poorly water-soluble ingredients into aqueous formulations. In addition, its non-ionic character and broad pH stability provide flexibility across different formulation systems.
