Natural Emulsifier Cosmetic Ingredients

In the quest for cleaner, eco-conscious cosmetics, DropCare® CG68 emerges as a game-changer. This plant-derived, PEG-free emulsifier combines performance, safety, and sustainability – all while forming stabilizing liquid crystals in your formulations. Here’s why it deserves a spot in your next skincare or haircare creation. Key Features & Benefits ✅ 100% Natural Origin:Derived from coconut oil fatty acids and maize glucose.✅ PEG-Free & Nonionic:Zero ethoxylated groups, ethylene oxide, or dioxane risks.✅ Liquid Crystal Technology:Forms stable, skin-friendly lamellar structures that enhance emulsion integrity.✅ ECOCERT-Certified:Meets rigorous natural/organic standards.✅ Skin & Eco-Friendly:Non-irritating (per CIR) and 100% biodegradable in 28 days (OECD 301B). Technical Highlights Property Specification INCI Cetearyl Glucoside & Cetearyl Alcohol Appearance White to off-white granular solid Dosage 0.1–5% (Essence to creams) pH Range 4.5–7.5 (5% aqueous solution) Melting Point 61–65°C Shelf Life 2 years (room temperature, sealed) Proven Stability: Beyond Industry Standards DropCare® CG68 delivers exceptional emulsion stability across rigorous tests: Normal Conditions: 100% emulsion index (no stratification). Centrifugal Stress (4,000 rpm, 10 min): >70% emulsion index. Freeze-Thaw Cycles (-18°C↔25°C): >95% stability after 2 cycles. 📌 Note: Stability decreases at extreme pH (pH ≤3 or ≥9). Optimal performance between pH 5–7. Liquid Crystals: The Science Behind Superiority Under polarized microscopy (400x), CG68 forms lamellar liquid crystals at the oil-water interface. These structures: Enhance emulsion stability. Improve active delivery. Create unique sensory textures.Crucially, non-polar oils (e.g., white oil) do NOT disrupt crystal formation! Versatile Applications Product Type Recommended Dosage Texture Outcome Serums/Essences 0.1–1% Translucent emulsions Lotions 1–3% Light, fluid milks Creams 3–5% Rich, stable creams Sunscreens 2–4% High SPF compatibility Hair Conditioners 1–3% Silky, non-greasy feel Compatible With: Silicones, plant oils, and cationic surfactants. Why Formulators Love DropCare® CG68 Clean & Green: No PEGs, solvents, or synthetic reagents. Future-Proof: Meets global biodegradability regulations. Performance-Driven: Unmatched stability in stress tests. Texture Innovator: Enables translucent→opaque textures with minimal dosage adjustments. The Bottom Line DropCare® CG68 isn’t just an emulsifier – it’s a commitment to sustainable, high-performance cosmetics. Whether you’re crafting a featherweight essence or a rich anti-aging cream, its liquid crystal technology ensures your formulas stand the test of time (and temperature!).
