During the last 10 years, Sasol has introduced a complete range of Guerbet alcohols under the trade name IsofolR with chain lengths from C32 to C2o, C24, C2s and C32. Other uses suggested are in the various ester products (mentioned later in this chapter) where they should give low irritation and be more effective products if they can be cost competitive. 

The alcohols can be oxidized to the corresponding acids. Guerbet alcohols, acids, their esters, sulfates, and ether sulfates are used as lubricants, cosmetic additives, and surfactants. Their synthesis, characterization, and applications have been reviewed (93). 

F. are important intermediates 95% of the total production flows into the manufacture of derivatives - Fatty alcohol esters, fatty alcohol ethers, - fatty alcohol phosphates, - sulfosuccinates, - fatty alcohol sulfates, - fatty alcohol ether sulfates, - Guerbet alcohols and alkyl halides. Their uses are described under the respective keywords. Only 5% of f. production is used as such. These direct uses include ... 

Skin creams and lotions, which are either 0/W or W/0 - emulsions, are used for skin care after cleaning. The natural skin grease washed out must be substituted the Romans did so already. Especially dry skin is intended to remain soft and smooth. This may temporarily be secured by moisturizing, because lack of water is the reason of rough skin. So, a lot of different moisturizers are recommended for such products, e.g., oils like - fatty acid esters, ethers, silicones, branched alcohols (- Guerbet alcohols) polyols, such as - sorbitol - lanolin ->fatty alcohols, such as - cetyl alcohol and - stearyl alcohol and -+tri-glycerides, such as - sesam oil and ->cocoa butter. Other important raw materials are emulsifiers, e.g., - soaps, - glycerides, - sorbitan esters, and many other anionic, cationic and amphoteric - surfactants, and recently rediscovered natural hydroxy (di)acids, e.g., - citric acid, -+lactic acid and - tartaric acid.
