Kaolin

(1332-58-7)
Kaolin (China clay) is a mixture of various aluminum silicates. It is often used in powders and masks given its absorbent, abrasive, bulking, and opacifying properties. This white, soft powder has good coverage and absorption abilities for both water and oil, making it an appropriate absorber of the oil and sweat secreted by the skin. It adheres well to the skin’s surface, yet is easily removed with normal cleansing procedures. Kaolin is considered a non-comedogenic raw material.

Opacifying agents refer to substances used to reduce the transparency or translucency of cosmetics. According to their composition, opacifying agents can be categorized into mineral-based agents, such as titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which scatter light to create opacity; organic-based agents, such as polymethylsilsesquioxane, which absorb and reflect light to reduce transparency; and synthetic-based agents, such as nylon powder, which create a matte finish to diminish translucency. These agents are essential for achieving desired coverage and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of cosmetic products. "Opacifying agent" on ECHEMl mainly supplies raw materials for opacifying agents.

More Information

Opacifying agents are fundamental components in cosmetic formulations, especially in products like foundations and lotions, where achieving an opaque appearance is desired. These agents work by scattering and diffusing light, thereby reducing transparency and creating a visually opaque appearance.

When opacifying agents are added to formulations, they interact with light to minimize the transmission of light through the product. This scattering of light particles helps to conceal imperfections and even out the skin tone, resulting in a smoother and more uniform appearance. Additionally, opacifying agents can also enhance the coverage and longevity of makeup products.

In cosmetic formulations, opacifying agents are commonly used in:

•Foundations

•Lotions

•Creams
