Performance with various fragrances

The Croduret LV series are used to solubilise fragrances in aqueous-solvent and aqueous solutions. The following table summarizes the quantities of emulsifier required to obtain clear solutions with 1.0 % of fragrance listed. The figures in the table are intended as a guide.

  Croduret 40LV
  Ethanol : water 20% : 80% Water 100%
Fragrance, 1.0% in each case (%) (%)
Fresh citrus 3.7 4.9
Flora note 2.7 6.3
White musk 6.6 12.9
Lemon 2.0 8.9
Lavender 2.1 8.5
Blossoms 5.1 12.9
Pink grapefruit 1.5 8.0
Rose 2.6 7.5

Table 2: Comparison of percentage of emulsifier necessary to obtain clear solution with 1.0% of fragrance.

The amount of Croduret LV product required to fully solubilise various fragrance oils in different solvent systems are listed in Table 2. These values indicate that the choice of Croduret LV product should be made based on the HLB system and composition of the different fragrances in the market.

Ease of pouring

The Croduret LV series are easy to handle at room temperature, 25°C. They also have lower pour points than the Croduret series. This can be seen in Figure 1 below.
