How does BTMS‑25 create stable creams and lotions?

BTMS‑25 is a cationic emulsifying wax that binds oil and water phases, producing smooth, homogenous emulsions that resist separation. It requires heat to melt and should be blended into the oil phase before combining with heated water for best stability. When properly incorporated, it yields a silky, low‑tack finish favored in premium skincare.

• Effective at 3–10% usage depending on desired viscosity and skin feel
• Melt into oils at 70–80°C before emulsification
• Produces a soft, powdery afterfeel—preferred for lotions and creams

What benefits does BTMS‑25 deliver for hair formulations?

In hair products BTMS‑25 conditions strands, reduces static, and improves wet and dry combing, making it a go‑to ingredient for conditioners and detanglers. It also provides slip and a smooth sensory profile without heavy residue when used at appropriate levels. Its compatibility with many oils and silicones makes it versatile across product types.
