Usage Guidelines
  • Add the Ggel CCT 200, under medium or high shear, to a portion of the organic components with which it is mutually compatible. Mix until homogenous before adding other ingredients. Take into account the potential large difference between the Ggel and the lower viscosity component into which it is mixing, when choose the right mixing equipment. Typical cosmetic equipments such as homogenizer would work.
  • When using only low-shear mixing equipment, stir the Ggel alone and then slowly add the most compatible component by portions, always ensuring the mixture remains homogeneous at each stage.
  • Normal dosage is 3 – 15% of the oil phase.
