Cosmetics are formulated from a variety of cosmetic ingredients (single substances or mixtures). Cosmetic ingredients are the raw materials that constitute cosmetics, including skin moisturizers, cleansers, emulsifiers, antioxidants, surfactants, pigments, preservatives, nutritional additives and various other functional types. These ingredients are primarily used in skincare, makeup, hair care, hair styling and dye products, perm products, toothpaste, mouthwash and other cosmetics. They play roles such as shaping, stabilizing, coloring, preserving, regulating pH, providing antioxidant effects, and enhancing fragrance.

Chlorodifluoromethane

CAS No: 75-45-6

Formula:

Categories: Cosmetic Ingredient > Propellant

Chlorodifluoromethane, with the chemical formula CHClF2, is a colorless, odorless gas at standard atmospheric pressure and the temperature we are familiar with. Its presence is so low that it is almost impossible for human senses to detect. This gas does not have the property of burning, and it belongs to the broad category of organofluorine compounds, as well as being a derivative of hydrocarbon compounds. In the field of organic chemistry, it is classified under the broad category of hydrocarbons and their derivatives, due to its unique properties, and is widely used in refrigerants, solvents, foaming agents, and fire extinguishers, making it an indispensable chemical in modern industry and daily life. The CAS number, or chemical substance registration number, of this compound is marked as 75-45-6, which is a universal way of identifying chemical substances internationally, and its existence makes it possible to manage and track chemical substances globally. Through the CAS number, researchers can quickly and accurately find the specific chemical substance they need, which is of great significance in promoting research and development in the field of chemistry. Meanwhile, the CAS number also provides convenience for the regulation of chemical substances, helping to ensure the safe use of chemicals and playing an important role in protecting our environment. This number is not just a simple identifier; it is the global passport for the circulation of chemicals, an important tool for scientific research and environmental protection.More
