PEG-15 TALLATE

INCI: PEG-15 TALLATE | Function: Surfactant, Emulsifier | Type: PEG Tallate

What Is PEG-15 TALLATE?

PEG-15 TALLATE 是一种PEG化妥尔油脂肪酸酯，由松木制浆副产品妥尔油与PEG-15酯化制得。作为非离子表面活性剂，在清洁和乳化配方中提供温和的去污力和乳化稳定性。HLB值随PEG链长增加而升高，短链偏油包水乳化，长链偏水包油。(PEG-15 TALLATE is a PEGylated tall oil fatty acid ester. As a non-ionic surfactant, it provides mild detergency and emulsion stability in cleansing and emulsifying formulations. HLB increases with PEG chain length.)

Key Skin Benefits

+ 植物来源乳化 — 妥尔油脂肪酸是松木衍生物 (Plant-derived emulsifier — tall oil fatty acid from pine)
+ 温和配方助剂 — 非离子型，刺激性低 (Mild formulation aid — non-ionic, low irritation)
+ 提升泡沫质量 — 在清洁体系中改善泡沫细腻度 (Improves foam quality — enhances foam creaminess in cleansing systems)

Pros

+ 植物来源 — 妥尔油是可再生资源 (Plant origin — tall oil is renewable)
+ 温和 — 适用于敏感肌配方 (Mild — suitable for sensitive skin formulas)
+ 可生物降解 (Biodegradable)

Cons

− 含PEG组分 — PEG化过程使用环氧乙烷 (Contains PEG — ethoxylation uses ethylene oxide)
− 可能含微量1,4-二噁烷杂质 (May contain trace 1,4-dioxane impurity)
− 非活性成分 (Non-active ingredient)
