Sponge Gel and Oil Emulsification

Based on the product description, Sponge Gel (Sodium Acrylate Crosspolymer) is primarily a water-absorbing gellant designed to create a gel texture in aqueous formulations.

Its main function is to absorb large amounts of water and release it onto the skin for a refreshing feel. The description states it can be dispersed in water.

The information available does not indicate that Sponge Gel can emulsify oil or incorporate an oil phase into a formulation. It functions as a water gellant, not an emulsifier.

If you need to create a formulation that contains both a water phase and an oil phase (an emulsion), you would typically need to use a separate emulsifying agent specifically designed for that purpose.
