Overview of Calcium Thioglycolate Trihydrate

Calcium Thioglycolate Trihydrate is a chemical compound widely used as a depilatory active ingredient in personal care and cosmetic formulations. It functions by breaking down keratin structures in hair, allowing for effective and painless hair removal. Due to its efficiency and controlled action, it is commonly used in depilatory creams, lotions, and hair removal products.

In cosmetic formulations, Calcium Thioglycolate Trihydrate is often used as an alternative to Sodium Thioglycolate, especially where milder action and better skin compatibility are required. It is also formulated alongside stabilising agents such as Calcium Hydroxide to maintain pH balance and product performance. ChemicalBull supplies Calcium Thioglycolate Trihydrate that meets consistent quality standards for cosmetic and industrial buyers.

Applications of Calcium Thioglycolate Trihydrate

Depilatory Creams and Hair Removal Products

Calcium Thioglycolate Trihydrate is primarily used in depilatory creams and lotions for effective hair removal. It weakens the hair structure at the skin surface, allowing easy removal without cutting the hair shaft. In formulations, it is commonly balanced with Calcium Hydroxide to control alkalinity and ensure safe application.

Cosmetic and Personal Care Formulations

In personal care products, Calcium Thioglycolate Trihydrate is used in controlled concentrations to ensure skin safety and performance. Compared to Sodium Thioglycolate, it offers better stability in certain cream and lotion systems, making it suitable for professional and consumer-grade depilatory products.

Industrial and Speciality Applications

Beyond cosmetics, Calcium Thioglycolate Trihydrate may be used in select industrial processes where thioglycolate chemistry is required for reduction or bonding applications. In such cases, it may be used alongside other calcium-based compounds depending on process requirements.
