Florasolvs® Jojoba-80 is a water-soluble ethoxylated jojoba ester which provides jojoba emolliency for cosmetic formulations and imparts high slip. This versatile, biodegradable emollient functions as a secondary emulsifier (HLB 17.0 and near neutral pH) and provides viscosity adjustment in hair care formulations. It also delivers clarity and payout in stick products and fragrance oil solubilization in aqueous solutions.

It has good clarity when dissolved in water and does not negatively influence foam properties. Depending on application and use level, Florasolvs® PEG-80 Jojoba functions as a solubilizer, secondary emulsifier, source of jojoba emolliency, conditioner, cleanser and fragrance solubilizer.
