D&C Red No.27 Lake Heat Resistance

D&C Red No.27 Lake is a pigment lake, which means it is typically dispersed in oil or silicone rather than truly dissolved in water or oil. The product descriptions available do not specify a maximum heat resistance temperature for this pigment during the dispersion process.

Generally, pigment lakes are stable under typical cosmetic formulation temperatures. When incorporating D&C Red No.27 Lake into an oil-based formula, it should be dispersed in the oil phase. While specific temperature limits are not provided, it is advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to very high heat if possible. Often, pigments are added during the cool-down phase of a formulation or dispersed in the oil phase before heating, depending on the specific formula and process.

For best results and to maintain color stability, follow recommended formulation practices for dispersing pigments in oil or silicone bases.
