Lecithin Gel: Oil Capacity and Texture

Asked by: jitinan5 On: April 04, 2023 Product Type: Cosmetics

Question

What is the maximum percentage of oil that can be incorporated or bound when using Lecithin Gel in a formulation, and how does the resulting cream texture, particularly regarding slip or smoothness, compare to using Satin Mousse?

Answer

Lecithin Gel Oil Capacity and Texture Comparison

Based on the information available for LecithinGel™ (Product ID 10508):

  • Maximum Oil Percentage: LecithinGel™ can bind or "solder" up to 20% oil in a formulation.
  • Texture: LecithinGel™ itself has a creamy thick liquid texture. When used in a cream formulation, it contributes to a creamy texture.

Information regarding the texture of Satin Mousse in a cream formulation is not available, so a direct comparison of the resulting texture between LecithinGel™ and Satin Mousse cannot be made based on the current data.
