About Potassium Palmitate
Potassium Palmitate is primarily the potassium salt of palmitic acid.[1] Its solubility and charge state vary depending on the components forming the salt and the formulation’s acidity, which also affects how it interacts with other ingredients. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulations in which water and oil are evenly blended, and to lower surface tension so ingredients wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
