Product Highlights
  • Olivatis® 20 is an outstanding emulsifier for troublesome emulsions too.
  • Rather than an emulsifier, Olivatis® 20 can be classified as a hydrophilic lipid, forming fluid O/W emulsions, very fresh and light and with a unique and pleasant velvet effect.
  • Olivatis® 20 is globally compliant, is approved by Cosmos as a natural ingredient and is RSPO Mass Balance certified.
  • Olivatis® 20 should  be used as  a cold process emulsifier at an emulsifier/oil ratio of 1:1 or 1:2;  for low viscosity emulsions it is recommended to use a low amount (0,1-0,2%) of  a popular stabilizer (such as xanthan gum,  guar gum, etc).
  • Olivatis® 20 is compatible with all kinds of oil-soluble ingredients such as esters, triglycerides and silicones.
  • Olivatis® 20 is suitable for all applications where heating is not possible or desired. Although it has no thickening effect, in combination with Carbomed 940EZ, Olivatis® 20 makes possible the preparation of creams.

GENERAL EMULSIFICATION PROCEDURE

Use with high-shear mixer

  • If a high-shear mixer is available, Olivatis® 20 can be mixed with oils and the achieved phase can be added to the water phase under high shear.

Use without high-shear mixer

  • Olivatis® 20 must be pre-dispersed in water before the addition of fats and the required amount of water is usually 5 times the amount of Olivatis® 20 (e.g. a formulation containing 2,5% of Olivatis® 20 should be dispersed in 15% of water). The dispersion can be slightly rheopectic (viscosity increases increasing the speed of stirrer) therefore speed must be reduced in case of thickening.
  • After the dispersion of Olivatis® 20, add fats and oils under stirring and make a primary emulsion.
  • Once the emulsion is homogenous, add the rest of water containing stabilizers, preservatives and other water-soluble ingredients.

REQUIRED CONCENTRATION

  • Usually, better results are achieved with a ratio of 1 part of Olivatis® 20 with 2 parts of oil phase. The ratiomay change depending on the nature of the oil used in the formulation

STABILIZERS

  • Fluid emulsions can be stabilized with ordinary thickening agents such as xanthan gum, hydroxypropyl guar, sclerotium gum, etc. Inorganic thickeners such as magnesium aluminum silicate are compatible and useful as stabilizers too. It is recommended to disperse gums into the water phase
  • The addition of slight amounts (0,5-1%) of Sorbitan Monoleate increase the emulsion stability. Longchain fatty alcohols, such as Octyldodecanol, also increase the emulsion stability.

CREAMS

  • Olivatis® 20 is compatible with Carbomed 940EZ (Carbomer 940). Therefore; if a higher viscosity is required, a 0.5% of Carbomed 940EZ can be added, dispersing it into the water phase before starting the emulsification process.
