Comprehensive Introduction
1,2-Pentanediol is a linear aliphatic diol (C₅H₁₂O₂) characterised by its water miscibility, medium polarity, and low volatility. It is often incorporated into nonionic, amphoteric, or anionic surfactant formulations to ensure formulation clarity, retention stability, maximised wetting, and emulsification stability.Yino Bio's surfactants are sourced from corn kernel biomass, which balances functional efficacy with ecological responsibility - an important consideration for formulators who are cognisant of escalating regulatory restrictions and consumer preferences.
