DESCRIPTION

Complete technical data sheet: Triethanolamine 95%

  • INCI name: Triethanolamine (TEA)
  • Description: triethanolamine is an organic compound used in cosmetic and personal care products mainly as a pH regulator, emulsifier and stabilizer. It is an amine that also acts as a mild humectant. Triethanolamine 95 % is a concentrated solution containing 95 % pure triethanolamine.

Physical and chemical characteristics:

  • Appearance: clear to pale yellow viscous liquid.
  • Odor: light, characteristic.
  • Density: 1.120–1.130 g/cm³ at 20 °C/68 °F.
  • Viscosity: 500–800 cP at 25 °C/77 °F.
  • Melting point: approximately 20 °C/68 °F.
  • Boiling point: 335 °C/635 °F.
  • Solubility: soluble in water, ethanol and other polar solvents.
  • pH (1 % solution): 10.0–11.5.
Benefits and properties
  • pH regulator: used to adjust the pH of formulations, especially in cleansing and skin care products.
  • Emulsifier: helps form emulsions by stabilizing water-oil blends.
  • Stabilizer: keeps formulations stable and prevents phase separation.
  • Mild humectant: helps retain moisture in the skin, although this is not its main function.
Practical formulation guide
Usage level: Recommended concentration
  • In cosmetic products: 0.5–2.5 %, depending on the product type and the amount of pH adjustment or emulsification needed.
How to use and incorporate: How to use: 1. pH regulator: add slowly to the formulation under stirring to adjust the pH to the desired level. Using pH measuring equipment is recommended for accuracy. 2. Emulsification: incorporate into the water phase of emulsions before combining with the oil phase, helping form a stable emulsion.
Formulation tips:
  • Adjust the pH at the end of the process, once all ingredients have been added.
  • Before scaling up, make a pilot batch and run a stability test (cycles at 4 / 25 / 45 °C/39 / 77 / 113 °F for 4 weeks, checking odor, color, pH, viscosity and separation) in the final packaging.
Compatibility:
  • Compatibility with other ingredients: compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients, including surfactants, emollients, preservatives and thickeners. It is especially useful in combination with fatty acids to form soaps.
  • Solubility: highly soluble in water, making it easy to incorporate into aqueous products.
Storage: Conditions: store in a cool, dry place protected from direct light and heat sources. Keep containers tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption and oxidation. Stability: triethanolamine is stable under normal storage conditions. However, it can absorb carbon dioxide from the air, which may affect its quality.
Precautions: Wear gloves and safety glasses when handling. Do not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes; in case of contact, rinse with plenty of water. See the Safety Data Sheet (available with purchase).
Technical information for formulators: This sheet describes industrial uses of the raw material in the development of cosmetic products. It is not an efficacy claim for any finished product. The person responsible for the formulation must validate the concentration, compatibility and claims of their product in accordance with applicable regulations.
