GALAXY LES 70 is an anionic surfactant. It is water soluble. It has excellent foaming power and detergency property. It is also a very good emulsifier. It can be used with other anionic, non-ionic, or amphoteric surfactants. However, due to its anionic character, it should not be used with vationic components like cationic surfactants, cationic dyes, etc.

REFINED SHEA BUTTER is butter extracted from sheanuts by mechanical pressure and/or extraction followed by a refining.

FANCOL® LA SUPERFINE-P is a complex mixture of pure natural fatty alcohols derived from Lanolin. This mixture of organic alcohols is obtained through the hydrolysis of Lanolin. FANCOL LA SUPERFINE-P is pastillated, making it significantly easier to work with. FANCOL LA SUPERFINE-P acts as an emulsifying agent for both o/w and w/o emulsions and can be used over a wide pH range. FANCOL LA SUPERFINE-P has a high surface activity so can reduce interfacial tension of mineral oil/water. It can also significantly increase the water absorbing capacity of hydrocarbon systems.

FANCOR^® LANWAX is a high molecular weight wax ester fraction derived from natural Lanolin. It is a complex mixture of esters of straight chain, branched chain and hydroxyl fatty acids with aliphatic, steroid, triterpenoid alcohols. It also contains fatty esters of Cholesterol and other sterols. FANCOR LANWAX is used in water in oil systems to provide firmness, emolliency, improved consistency and stability. As such, it finds wide use not only in creams and lotions, but also is most valuable in lip formulations. It will add acceptable tact to hair grooming preparations and will serve as a plasticizer in wax crayons. It is an excellent bodying agent. FANCOR LANWAX is valuable as a low cost replacer or extender for other natural waxes in all applications including the manufacturing of candles. Not only will it act as an emulsifier, but it also serves as a crystallization inhibitor for other waxes. In polishes it will help reduce slip without interfering with gloss.
