Potassium cetyl phosphate

Other names: Cetyl phosphate potassium

Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)


Potassium cetyl phosphate, otherwise also known as potassium cetyl phosphate, is an organic compound that is often used in the cosmetic industry. It is an ingredient whose properties make it ideal for the production of various types of cosmetic products. It is a white powder that has the ability to emulsify, i.e. to combine ingredients that would not normally combine. Emulsifiers are necessary in these preparations in order to combine water and oil to produce a cream or lotion. In addition, potassium cetyl phosphate provides a number of other benefits.

The advantage of potassium cetyl phosphate is its excellent compatibility with many other ingredients, which makes it possible to create products that are highly effective on the one hand and pleasant to use on the other. For example, in skin care, it is an ingredient in many creams, lotions, lip balms and make-up. In addition, potassium cetyl phosphate is a component of shampoos for various hair types, where it helps to bind water and oils together, thus enabling a homogeneous mixture to be created. Its stabilising properties against oxidative degradation are also valuable in sunscreens. Last but not least, it can also be found in body care products such as various shower gels and body creams. Its use is widespread, mainly due to its emulsifying and stabilising properties, as well as its ability to improve the consistency and appearance of the final product.
