PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Product Description

EGMS Ethylene Glycol Monostearate of Pearl Slice is an ester-based raw material supplied as a white to light yellow waxy solid, typically in flake form. It is chemically identified as Ethylene Glycol Mono Stearate, also commonly known as Ethylene Glycol Monostearate or Glycol Stearate. The referenced commercial grade is controlled through appearance, acidity, saponification value, iodine value, melting point, and other physical characteristics. EGMS is primarily valued for its pearlizing and opacifying performance in suitable surfactant and personal-care formulations. It can help create a smooth, opaque, pearl-like visual effect in products such as shampoos, hand cleansers, lotions, and creams. The material is also associated with emulsifying and formulation-stabilizing functionality. Final product suitability and quality requirements should be confirmed against the actual supplier COA, Safety Data Sheet, and formulation-specific technical documentation.
