* BENEFITS AT A GLANCE:
+ Low usage concentration of 1.5 – 2.5%
+ High compatibility with active ingredients
+ Emulsifier for “light” W/O emulsions with pleasant application properties
+ Emulsions with high heat and freeze stability
+ Stable emulsions without co-emulsifiers and with low amounts of consistency-enhancing waxes
+ Formulations with all kinds of cosmetic oils
+ Liquid at room temperature
* APPLICATION:
+ ABIL® EM 90 is a non-ionic W/O emulsifier which is based on silicone. The high emulsion stabilizing potential of ABIL® EM 90 is caused by the polymeric and polyfunctional structure.
+ ABIL® EM 90 is suitable for the formulation of W/O creams and lotions.
+ Substances which can be processed include not only paraffin oils, which from the emulsiontechnological point of view provide relatively few problems, but also fatty acid esters of short- and long-chain alcohols, silicone derivates and vegetable triglycerides which are known to be difficult to emulsify.
+ The amount used, referred to the emulsion, is only 1.5 – 2.5%. In formulations with a high water content the additional use of about 1% ISOLAN® GI 34 is recommended to improve the application properties.
+ Consistency-providing or emulsion-stabilizing waxes are required only in amounts up to 2%.
+ Amongst others, hydrogenated castor oil in combination with high-melting hydrocarbon waxes or beeswax are suitable.
+ The optimum range for the content of oil phase is between 22 and 35%.
+ Substances with specific properties, such as UV filters, plant extracts, moisturizers and antiperspirants, are well tolerated by the emulsion.
+ The creams and lotions are distinguished by high stability towards heat and freezing stress; stability between -25 °C and +60 °C is attainable.
+ ABIL® EM 90 can be used for the preparation of multiple emulsions of the type W/O/W and O/W/O.
