EmulSoft
|
|
EmulSoft is the 100% natural and vegetable derived, esterification of glycerols and stearic acid. This esterification creates a oil in water emulsifier with a fantastic capability to incorporate vegetable oils into water, up to 15%, with a dry powdery after feel with no greasiness or tackiness.
EmulSoft is the perfect solution for all of your natural products including those for sensitive, and delicate, skin.
EmulSoft is a stand alone emulsifier that may be used to create textures from fluid lotion to thick creams, with the addition of fatty alcohols such as Cetearyl, and Stearyl, Alcohol or the solid esters such as Jojoba Esters or Cetyl Esters. To improve the heat stability you may also combine with the natural polymers, such as xanthan gum and cellulose or other modified starches such as Irish Moss or UltraPureGel. The addition of the esters or the polymers willl also improve the 'slick' sensation.
