Product Description
Triethyl Citrate is a multi-functional ingredient that is used widely in the personal care industry. It appears as a clear and colorless, oily liquid in its raw form. Triethyl Citrate is generally added for its oil controlling properties, which helps in maintaining healthy skin and hair. It also aids in increasing the viscosity of certain formulations to result in a richer texture that is easier to apply. Further, Triethyl Citrate is a good solvent and a perfuming agent that can mask the odor of other ingredients present in a formulation.
