General Description

NANOEMUL PALMITIC is the high-purity cosmetic-grade form of Palmitic Acid, a naturally occurring saturated fatty acid commonly found in palm oil, coconut oil, and animal fats. It is a key component of the skin’s natural lipid barrier and is widely used in cosmetics for its emollient, thickening, and surfactant properties. In its refined form, NANOEMUL PALMITIC is a white, waxy solid that enhances product texture, improves spreadability, and supports moisture retention. Cosmetic manufacturers often buy NANOEMUL PALMITIC in bulk for its multifunctionality and compatibility with skin-lipid structures.

Uses in the Cosmetics Industry

NANOEMUL PALMITIC is incorporated into various cosmetic and personal care products for its performance benefits, including:

  • Acts as an emollient and stabilizer, enhancing skin softness and texture.
  • Used as a surfactant and fatty acid component in soap bases, contributing to hardness and creamy lather.
  • Provides structure and spreadability, supporting long-lasting formulas.
  • Helps coat and soften hair strands, improving shine and manageability.
  • Forms a protective barrier on the skin to reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL).

Due to its natural origin and high compatibility with other fatty acids and lipids, NANOEMUL PALMITIC is often purchased wholesale for use in moisturizing, cleansing, and structural formulations.

Hazards

NANOEMUL PALMITIC is considered safe and non-toxic in cosmetic use; however, attention should be paid to:

  • May be comedogenic in high concentrations for acne-prone or oily skin types.
  • Very rare; well-tolerated in most formulations, but patch testing is recommended in sensitive skin applications.
  • If derived from palm sources, sustainability certifications (e.g., RSPO) should be verified.

Storage & Stability

  • Store in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry area, protected from light and moisture.
  • Highly stable under normal storage conditions; resistant to oxidation due to its saturated structure.
