Clarity of Oils and Isododecane When Heated

When heating ingredients like mineral oil, sunflower oil, and isododecane for cosmetic formulation purposes, they are generally expected to remain clear.

• Mineral Oil: Our various grades of Mineral Oil (Paraffinum Liquidum) are described as clear oily liquids. They are stable and have a long lifespan, even when exposed to heat, indicating they maintain their clarity during heating.
• Sunflower Oil: Our Sunflower Oil (High Omega, Refined) is a refined grade oil. While natural oils can be prone to oxidation over time, refined oils like this one are stable and resistant to oxidation. For typical heating during formulation, it should remain clear.
• Isododecane: Isododecane is a clear liquid hydrocarbon solvent. It is very stable and will remain clear when heated below its boiling point, which is well above typical formulation temperatures.

Therefore, you can expect these ingredients to maintain their clear appearance when heated as part of your formulation process.
