The Versagel MC 750 products are isohexadecane (C16 isoparaffin) as the base. The gelled isohexadecane is known to have great silicone compatibility, slip and shine. As an emollient it can help create a creamy, thick formula, with rich texture and a light non-sticky feel on the skin. In formulations it provides good cleansing properties which is ideal in buffing oils, face primers and gel cleansers.

Versastique™ Clear SQ 5T is a multi-functional material that provides a better way to formulate through simplified creation of functional and esthetic solid stick applications. With translucent and clear stick properties, Versastique is ideal for natural, mineral and synthetic ingredients in cosmetics, personal care, skin care, sun care and health care products.

Versastique™ Clear ME 5T is a multi-functional material that provides a better way to formulate through simplified creation of functional and esthetic solid stick applications. With translucent and clear stick properties, Versastique is ideal for natural, mineral and synthetic ingredients in cosmetics, personal care, skin care, sun care and health care products.

The Versagel M 200 products are based on gelling USP grade white mineral oil in such a way as it promotes superior moisture retention by creating a continuous film enabling oil to be easily spread with no pooling of the product. It also provides a low moisture system for protection of water-sensitive additive packages/ingredients. In liquid systems fine particles don’t easily remain in suspension; they tend to settle at the bottom and agglomerate. As shown below in the suspension stability testing, Versagel provides excellent suspension properties because the polymers provide sufficient yield stress to prevent aggregation and settling.

Versastique™ ME 40T is a multi-functional material that provides a better way to formulate through simplified creation of functional and esthetic solid stick applications. With translucent and clear stick properties, Versastique is ideal for natural, mineral and synthetic ingredients in cosmetics, personal care, skin care, sun care and health care products.

The Versagel MN 750 are anhydrous clear gels that provide versatility and a distinctive, elegant feel. The polymer system provides lubricity and conditioning, while the ester base, isononyl isononanoate, offers non-greasy emolliency. Due to the polymer matrix in the gel, these materials enable fine particles, such as color pigments, to be readily suspended or dispersed with minimal settling and agglomeration. The Versagel MN products also exhibit good thermal and UV stability and silicone solubilization. Depending on the application, the suggested use level may range from 5% to 60%. Versagel MN gels should be blended with the rest of the ingredients in the oil phase of the formulation, while the nonpolar or less polar ingredients are added to the gel first. The gels are compatible with most nonionic surfactants, cyclomethicone, phenyl trimethicone, and other synthetic and natural emollients.

Versagel MG 500 T are based on hydrogenated C6 – C14 alkenes combined with our patented gelling technology. Versagel MG offers an alternative to silicones for formulating products when a silky, elegant after-feel is desired. Versagel MG gels are compatible with most ingredients, with most non-ionic surfactants, and other synthetic and natural emollients. A unique property of the Versagel product lines is their suspension capability for fine particles. Versagel MG can be utilized as suspension vehicles for fine particles or encapsulated liquids such as Zinc Oxide, Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxide, Talc, Decorative Glitters and Vitamins E and C.

The Versagel HSQ product offers a silicone-free alternative to oil-based and emulsion formulas. The gelled structure is based on Hemisqualane (C13-15 Alkane) combined with patented block copolymer technology. Hemisqualane is a non-volatile emollient derived from plant sugar and is inherently biodegradable, ECOCERT-approved, NPA Natural Seal Certified, and a USDA Certified bio-based product. It provides a light, non-greasy and silky feel, and serves as an effective alternative to petroleum and silicone- based ingredients. The gelled version provides additional benefits of a rheology modifier and a suspension agent for a wide range of cosmetic and personal care applications.

Versagel® ML 750 are based on C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, which provides a light, dry and non-greasy skin feel. It provides superior solubility, broad ingredient compatibility, and water proofing properties. It also brings additional benefits such as suspension and stability of APIs such as organic sunscreen agents and topical pain relievers. It’s known as an emulsifier and solubilizer for sunscreen agents and antiperspirant actives. The suggested use level of these gels ranges from 5% to 70%, depending on the specific application. Versagel ML products can be easily combined with other oil-phase ingredients in the formula when they are mixed at elevated temperature. To ensure uniformity during mixing, it is highly recommended that nonpolar or less polar ingredients be added to the gel first. Cyclomethicone and nonpolar esters can also be added to formulations containing Versagel ML materials to modify the esthetics of finished products.
