Definition from
ukhairdressers.com:
A thickening agent and/or binding agent added to products to change their physical composition (joins two or more ingredients together). For example, it can turn a lotion into a cream.
Example sentences:
Creams are made by pre-mixing all the materials forming the fat-phase, that is, the emulsifier, consistency agent (Cocoa or Shea butter) and vegetable oils. (Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy)
Any personal care product that contains both water based and oil based ingredients must also contain an emulsifier. It is the emulsifier that enables these two normally repellent ingredients to mix together to form a cream or lotion. (Green People)
The reason the fat does not float to the top immediately is due to the presence of emulsifiers; in this case, a milk protein called sodium caseinate as well as several phopholipids. (Cosmetic Chemistry)

Definition from
한국 브리태니커 온라인:
마가린·쇼트닝·아이스크림과 샐러드 드레싱에서 기름과 물이 혼합물을 이루는 것처럼, 어떤 액체가 다른 액체에 부유하도록 하는 여러 화학적 첨가물.
Example sentences:
바다에서는 신속한 방제작업을 위해서 유화제가 대량으로 살포되고 있습니다. 보이는 기름띠를 당장 없애는 데는 효과적이지만 환경단체들은 유화제로 인한 2차 피해를 우려하고 있습니다. (SBS)
Note from asker:
| To be precise, absolutely I agree with you (the chemistry sector). But in the cosmetic industry, they use "유화제" and "계면활성제" interchangeably. |
