- Applications
As a Solubilizer
Poleryl 10 LA is widely used as a solubilizer for premium, PEG-free, water-based natural formulations such as tonics, micellar waters, wet-wipe solutions, body washes, liquid soaps, shampoos and hair conditioners. To solubilize most perfumes and essential oils, Poleryl 10 LA is used at a 5:1 - 10:1 ratio with the substances to be solubilized. The substances to be solubilized must be mixed with Poleryl 10 LA until a transparent solution is achieved, then aqueous phase is added. To facilitate solubilization, a solvent like Propanediol (in a 1:1 ratio with Poleryl 10 LA) can be used. In case of substances difficult to be solubilized, the addition of 5%-20% ethanol improves transparency.
As a Surfactant
Poleryl 10 LA can be used as a surfactant at 0,5-2,0% concentrations. Poleryl 10 LA does not require any special pro-cedure to be incorporated, is sufficient to premix with the rest of the surfactant base or dissolve it in water. In some surfactant systems, a slight reduction of viscosity may occur and, in such a case, viscosity must be adjusted at the end of the process (e.g slightly increasing the concentration of electrolytes).
