Cola®Det OE is a completely formulated system with mild anionic and amphoteric foaming surfactants and a structuring agent. It is prepared and shipped as an easy-to-use lamellar concentrate, and is designed to produce opaque emulsions of typical triglyceride oils without the use of heat. Up to 20 wt. % of an oil can be fully emulsifi ed into water for a stable dispersion. The resulting product can be more fully viscosified with the inclusion of polymeric agents such as guar, xanthan, or cellulosic gums.

Formulation Guidelines
  • Dispersing of polymers into a water phase followed with Cola®Det OE can yield highly viscous, foaming products. Other actives such as humectants, alpha hydroxy acids and proteins can also be added to the aqueous phase.
  • Oil soluble additives such as vitamins, esters, and silicones may be included provided they are soluble themselves in the oil of choice.
  • Typical formulations utilize triglyceride oils from 5% to 20%. It is recommended to use an equivalent amount of Cola®Det OE.
  • Other oils such as petrolatum and mineral oil can also be used. Mild heat during the mixing phase with adequate homogenization will ensure a uniform stable product.
