Gelfest CO40 enables numerous natural and chemically synthesized organic oil-soluble ingredients to dissolve in water and form stable solutions without altering the properties or odor of the substances, thereby enhancing product functionality, performance, and sensory characteristics. In the cosmetics manufacturing sector, particularly for transparent products, Gelfest CO40 holds unique appeal. It reduces or eliminates organic solvents in formulations, replacing them with cost-effective water. T

Description
Gelfest CO40 enables numerous natural and chemically synthesized organic oil-soluble ingredients to dissolve in water and form stable solutions without altering the properties or odor of the substances, thereby enhancing product functionality, performance, and sensory characteristics. In the cosmetics manufacturing sector, particularly for transparent products, Gelfest CO40 holds unique appeal. It reduces or eliminates organic solvents in formulations, replacing them with cost-effective water. This approach enhances safety while mitigating the adverse effects of organic solvents, resulting in purer fragrances and a more natural feel for the product.
Specification
Appearance: Light yellow transparent liquid
Softening point: 4–9
Viscosity (20°C, No. 2 rotor, 30 rpm), Pa·s: 0.16–0.48
Cloud point (1% aqueous solution): 79–89
pH (1% aqueous solution): 5.5–7.5
Flash point (PMCC): Boils without flash ignition
Composition: Surfactants, inert additives
Features
1. Low dosage, high efficiency, high solubilization capacity, and absolute transparency; can be diluted at any ratio after solubilization;
2. Compatible with acrylic thickeners;
3. Provides a soft, smooth, and non-sticky feel on the skin;
4. Convenient to use at room temperature;
5. Excellent compatibility with most raw materials, enabling formulation into bases, intermediates, semi-finished products, and other items.
Application
Oil-soluble flavorings, fungicides, cooling agents, mosquito repellents, insecticides, sunscreens, and various water-insoluble substances such as plant and animal extracts. Production and manufacturing of various transparent water-based detergents, cosmetics, and daily necessities.
Package
60 kg per drum, stored in a sealed container.
Important Notes:
1. Gelfest CO40 must be thoroughly mixed with the solubilized material before dispersing in water.
2. If the temperature is too low and the solubilized material has solidified, heat it to melt before proceeding with normal solubilization.
3. Gelfest CO40 is stable in water and aqueous alcohol solutions, but avoid adding strong acids or alkalis.
4. Gelfest CO40 has minimal impact on foam properties in end products, acting only synergistically. To enhance or further reduce foam, add small amounts of foaming or defoaming agents.
5. Favorable dispersion occurs in mixed systems (e.g., alcohol added to Gelfest CO40) and mixtures with sulfated water-soluble substances. In alcohol-containing aqueous systems, Gelfest CO40 dosage can typically be reduced.
