BTMS-25 is a versatile, natural emulsifying wax derived from rapeseed oil, renowned for its exceptional conditioning properties. As a cationic emulsifier, it not only facilitates the blending of oil and water phases in formulations but also imparts a silky, non-greasy feel to both hair and skin products.
Key Benefits:
- Natural Emulsifying Wax: BTMS-25 effectively combines oil and water phases, eliminating the need for additional stabilizers or thickeners in your formulations.
Lightweight Hair Conditioner: Ideal for crafting conditioners that leave hair soft, manageable, and free from frizz without weighing it down.
- Conditioning Emulsifier: Provides a luxurious, powdery finish to lotions and creams, enhancing skin's softness and hydration.
- Derived from Rapeseed Oil: Offers a plant-based, eco-friendly option for formulators seeking sustainable ingredients.
Common Uses:
- Hair Care: Formulate leave-in and rinse-off conditioners, hair masks, and detangling sprays that benefit from BTMS-25's conditioning properties.
- Skin Care: Create creams, lotions, and body butters with a smooth texture and enhanced skin feel.
- DIY Projects: Perfect for homemade formulations requiring a reliable emulsifier that also conditions.
Usage Guidelines:
- Recommended Usage Rate: 1% to 10%, depending on the desired conditioning effect.
- Incorporation: Add to the heated oil phase of your formulation, ensuring it reaches a minimum of 176°F (80°C) to fully melt and integrate.
- Compatibility: Works well with a variety of ingredients, including silicones and other conditioning agents.

"1 st time user" |
COMMENTS: I used BTMS-25 for the first time today in a lotion recipe. I usually use E wax but I really like the softness of the lotion when using the BTMS. I noticed that it thickened the lotion base starting at around 130 degrees, but was still pourable at 120 degrees after adding FO and Preservative. Overall I am impressed with the BTMS-25. Before adding the water to the oil phase the BTMS does have a slight fishy smell, but it is totally gone once emulsion starts. I think I will definitely keep using this product.

"Super Thick Emulsion!! " |
COMMENTS: I used this wax for the first time making one of my lotion recipes that is tried and true. And let me tell you... it almost instantly thickened from the time I poured my hot liquids into my hot oils! Even before I started blending! At 140 degrees! I use a very small amount of Shea butter in my lotion, not sure if that was a factor. I suggest use a preservative with a high flashpoint. Makes for longer workability, the more it cools down the thicker it gets! Learned that the hard way! Lol... However this ewax delivered as promised a thick, creamy, smooth lotion that feels quite light. I packaged in jars which was optimal. Can't wait to try it in my sugar scrubs!
