Application:
The good colour characteristic and low odour of Lanolin Alcohol EP works well in creams of highest quality, where maximum white colour is important, e.g. in sports creams, hair creams, creams for dry skin, etc. Its emulsifying properties can be increased by addition of cetyl alcohol, beeswax or lanolin (de-oiled). These mixtures are the basis of ointments with a remarkably good colour. Lanolin Alcohol EP can be used in small quantities as a thickening agent in shampoos and bath gels.
