Lanolin, ethoxylated, is a non-ionic surfactant derived from lanolin, which is a natural waxy substance obtained from sheep's wool. This compound is characterized by its hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) that allows it to function effectively as an emulsifier, stabilizer, and thickening agent in various formulations. It is commonly used in cosmetic and personal care products due to its moisturizing properties and ability to enhance the texture and spreadability of creams and lotions. Ethoxylation introduces ethylene oxide units into the lanolin structure, increasing its solubility in water and improving its compatibility with other ingredients. Lanolin, ethoxylated is generally regarded as safe for use in topical applications, although it may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Its biodegradability and low toxicity make it an environmentally friendly option in formulations. Overall, this compound plays a significant role in enhancing the performance and sensory attributes of a wide range of products in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
