Product Information

• Name: Ethylene glycol distearate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Ethylene glycol distearate is a detergent additive that has been shown to be effective in reducing body mass index. It is a compound of ethylene glycol and fatty acid esters that are obtained by reacting fatty acids with ethylene glycol. Ethylene glycol distearate is used as an emulsifier, surfactant, and thickener in a variety of detergent compositions. This additive also has cationic properties, which can be useful for cleaning surfaces and removing grease from fabrics. Ethylene glycol distearate has been demonstrated to exhibit antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. The amide group of ethylene glycol distearate can bind to the copper ions found in the cell membrane of bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, disrupting its function.
