About Isostearamide DEA

Isostearamide DEA is a mixture of ethanolamides of isostearic acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to reduce static electricity that causes hair strands to lift or stick together, increase the amount of foam and help it resist collapsing, and reduce surface tension so that ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[3] It is also used to adjust the viscosity and flow of formulations.[3] In Europe, the secondary amine content of the finished product is limited to a maximum of 0.5%, and nitrosamines must also be no more than 50 μg/kg.[2]
