About Calcium Behenate

Calcium Behenate is the calcium salt of behenic acid.[1] Its solubility and charge state vary depending on the components forming the salt and the acidity of the formulation, which also affects how it interacts with other ingredients. In cosmetics, it is used to help powder ingredients flow evenly without clumping, reduce light transmission so the contents appear less visible, and control the viscosity and flow of the formulation.[2]
