:Sodium myristate
Description:
Sodium myristate is a sodium salt of myristic acid, a saturated fatty acid with a 14-carbon chain. It is commonly used as an emulsifier, surfactant, and thickening agent in various cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations. This compound appears as a white to off-white powder or granules and is soluble in water, which allows it to effectively stabilize emulsions and enhance the texture of products. Sodium myristate exhibits surfactant properties, enabling it to reduce surface tension and improve the spreadability of formulations. Additionally, it has antimicrobial properties, making it beneficial in personal care products. The substance is generally considered safe for use in cosmetics and food applications, although it may cause irritation in some individuals. Its chemical structure contributes to its ability to interact with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances, making it versatile in various formulations. Overall, sodium myristate is valued for its functional properties in enhancing product performance and stability.
