GENERAL DESCRIPTION |
||
| Lanolin is a soft, wax-like material derived from wool as a by-product in the preparation of raw wool for the spinner. Chemically, it is a mixture of cholesterol esters and higher fatty acid esters. It forms a protective barrier and used as a base for emollients in cosmetics and hair-care products. Lanolin alcohols can be obtained by hydrolysis of lanolin to use as an emulsifying agent in the preparation of water-in-oil emulsions. Modified lanolin products are used as a base for ointments and creams. In industrial field they are used as lubricants, leather finishing and as constituents of varnishes and paints. Acetylated lanolin is more lipid soluble (hydrophobic) than lanolin base. | ||
