About Potassium Tallate

Potassium Tallate is the potassium salt of tall oil fatty acids.[1] Its solubility and charge state depend on the components forming the salt and the acidity of the formula, which also affects how it interacts with other raw materials. In cosmetics, it is used to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
