Sucrose Polybehenate is a sucrose-derived ester with the traditional properties desired in an emollient. Still, it has outstanding additional benefits, such as film forming, suppleness, and wash and wear resistance. It is a multifunctional ingredient, a proven viscosity enhancer, emulsifier, and gelator.
In addition, Sucrose Polybehenate forms stiff gels that will stay where applied and still have great skin feel when blended with various emollients. As the art of forming thick, rich emulsions can be a challenge, this is an exceptionally useful benefit.
Sucrose Polybehenate is a safe and eco-friendly ingredient made from natural raw materials. Applied topically, it makes skin soft, smooth, and moisturized.
