Action and use<\/strong><\/p>\n Non-ionic surfactant.<\/p>\n Mixture of monoesters and diesters of mainly stearic (octadecanoic) acid and\/or palmitic (hexadecanoic) acid and macrogols. It may be obtained by ethoxylation or by esterification of macrogols with stearic acid 50 (type I) or stearic acid 95 (type II) (see Stearic acid (1474)). It may contain free macrogols. The average polymer length is equivalent to 6 to 100 ethylene oxide units per molecule (nominal value).<\/p>\n Appearance<\/strong><\/p>\n White or slightly yellowish, waxy mass.<\/p>\n Solubility<\/strong><\/p>\n Soluble in ethanol (96 per cent) and in 2-propanol. Macrogol stearate corresponding to a product with 6-9 units of ethylene oxide per molecule is practically insoluble, but freely dispersible in water and miscible with fatty oils and with waxes. Macrogol stearate corresponding to a product with 20-100 units of ethylene oxide per molecule is soluble in water and practically insoluble in fatty oils and in waxes.<\/p>\n A.
