Emulsifier

About Lauric Acid

Emulsifier: Lauric acid is used as an intermediate and surface-active agent in industry and in the manufacture of personal care products in the consumer market. Lauric acid is also used as a fatty acid for manufacturing alkyds and resins.

We may systematically know lauric acid as dodecanoic acid, apart from being a saturated fatty acid. It presents as a bright white, powdery solid with a faint odor of baby oil or soap. Also, we may term the salts and esters of lauric acid as laurates.

This acid has its origin in various vegetable fats, particularly in coconut and palm kernel oils. Apparently, lauric acid makes its availability less expensive as compared to many other fatty acids. It even provides a long-shelf life, as it offers to be nontoxic and safe handling.

Besides, lauric acid acts as an emulsifier for the production of various personal & pharma care products. It helps in producing soaps and cosmetics as it reacts with sodium hydroxide to give sodium laureate, which is a soap.

Most commonly, we get sodium laurate by saponification of various oils, such as coconut oil. These precursors give mixtures of sodium laurate and other soaps. Further, lauric acid has medicinal use for treating different diseases.

It helps in treating viral infections like influenza, swine flu, the common cold, and others. Lauric acid also benefits from treating bronchitis, yeast infections and other intestinal infections like ringworm.

Similarly, lauric acid provides full antibacterial and anti-inflammatory actions to treat various diseases. With such effects, it becomes more beneficial in personal products for skin repairing and as anti-acne agent.

Further, lauric acid fuses to the bacterial membrane of acnes bacteria, keeping it from proliferating and reducing inflammation from acne. We often use it at higher levels to impart a pleasant natural fragrance and used in cosmetic formulations as a solubiliser in emulsions.

Thus, we, Bansal Trading Company, supply these lauric acid products at an affordable amount to various industries dealing in it. For this purpose, we deal with most trustworthy manufacturers of lauric acid as we do not compromise in the quality.

Wax Manufacturers

Emulsifier: Waxes are a key additive and ingredient used in formulating various quality products and as a raw material and processing aid in manufacturing processes. Waxes vary on the basis of its source like petroleum, plant-derived, naturally derived, animal-derived, or a blend of various different types. They also differ on the basis of melting point, effectiveness in reducing friction and hence waxes need to be studied and then chosen due to its plethora of combinations and suitability in various end-use applications.
