Storage: Keep in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry place.
Practical Formulation Guide
Uses and Applications: Creams, lotions, and emulsions where stabilization of an aqueous phase and an oil phase is required.
Incorporation Method: Incorporate into the recommended phase and work at a temperature high enough to melt and homogenize. Consider HLB, oil-phase load, and electrolytes.
Dosage: Many emulsifiers are initially evaluated at approximately 2–8%, but the supplier-specific range and the composition of the formula must take precedence.
Critical Points: Validate thermal stability, centrifugation, and cold/heat cycles. Increasing the emulsifier does not always correct an unstable emulsion.
Good Practices: Perform stability and compatibility testing in the final formula. The supplier's TDS, COA, and SDS take precedence over any general guidance range.
