Hand sanitizer may not have been used much in the past, since the arrival of the epidemic, I believe many people have a good habit of washing hands frequently. So how is hand sanitizer made and what is the recipe inside?
In fact, the main role played in it is our surfactant (emulsifier op-10 / emulsifier moa-3 / aes, etc.).
The basic formulation design of hand sanitizer
Surfactant 2.Fatliquor 3.Emollient moisturizer 4.ph regulator 5.Thickener 6.Anti-hard water agent. In fact, the formula is simply: hand sanitizer surfactant + pearlescent paste + thickening powder + water + fragrance + pigment + preservative = hand sanitizer. Other special function additives need to be added separately by yourself.
Today, the small editor of Chain Set Chemical will introduce the performance and application of the emulsifier moa-3. The main chemical component of moa-3 is a condensate of fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide, the appearance is a colorless transparent liquid, the color is less than or equal to 20, the hydroxyl value is between 170-180, and the moisture is less than or equal to 1. The pH is between 5-7 and the hlb is 6-7, so moa-3 is easily soluble in oil and polar solvents.
moa-3 has good emulsification properties, as a w / o type emulsifier, used for mineral oil, aliphatic solvent emulsification, PVC plastic sol viscosity reducing agent, widely used in chemical fiber oil agent, and moa-3 is the main raw material for the production of aes, aes is often used in hand sanitizer, laundry detergent shower gel.
