The substance mixture is used in cosmetic formulations. It acts as an antistatic agent (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface, for example of hair), combability aid (reduces or prevents tangling of hair due to changes or damage on the hair surface, thus improving combability), film former (forms a film on skin, hair or nails when applied) and viscosity regulator (increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetic products).
