    -Appearance: White to off-white waxy solid in flake or pellet form.
    -pH (1% solution): 5-7
    -Melting Point: 65-75°C
    -HLB Value: Around 9-10, suitable for oil-in-water emulsions

    Ingredients:

    Caution: -Temperature Sensitivity: Requires specific heating conditions for optimal performance (usually around 70-75°C) to form a stable emulsion; overheating can affect emulsion stability.
    -Concentration Limits: Should be used within the recommended concentration range (2-8%) to avoid destabilizing the formulation.
    -pH Compatibility: Ideal for formulations with a final pH range of 5-7. Outside this range, the stability and texture of the emulsion might be compromised.
    -Not Ideal for Water-Free Formulas: Since it’s designed to emulsify oil and water phases, it’s not effective in water-free formulations.
