Rokanol O20PF Ethoxylated oleyl alcohol of pharmaceutical quality (Ph. Eur.) Macrogol oleyl ether, IBC 1000 kg

ROKAnol O20PF meets the stringent quality requirements set out in the Pharmacy Code, collected and published in the latest edition of the European Pharmacopoeia. Thanks to this, this product can be classified into the Macrogol Oleyl Ether group. ROKAnol O20PF, due to the degree of ethoxylation of oleyl alcohol, has a strong hydrophilic character, which makes it perfect for creating stable oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions. Considering the very good emulsifying properties, ROKAnol O20PF is especially recommended in the process of obtaining emulsions at room temperature. This is important when using active substances that are particularly sensitive to high temperatures, which are a frequent component of many emulsions. On the other hand, very good dispersing and stabilizing properties of ROKAnol O20PF are important when creating stable formulations in which the active substance is present in a solid form, such as in ointments. Good dispersion of the active substance in the product enables its even distribution on the skin. This ability of ROKAnol O20PF is used when creating dressings in the form of a spray.
