Usage Percentage and Stability of Easy Cream Maker for Oil and Silicone Emulsification

Asked by: jn_andy On: March 25, 2016 Product Type: Cosmetics

Question

What is the recommended maximum percentage of oil and silicone that can be emulsified using Easy Cream Maker, and how does this percentage affect the stability of the final cream formulation?

Answer

Based on the staff's clarification:

  1. Oil Emulsification Percentage: While the website might have listed higher percentages, the staff states that Easy Cream Maker belongs to the group of emulsifiers that can emulsify a low percentage of oil, specifically "should not exceed 10%". The exact percentage can vary depending on the type of oil used (light vs. heavy/polar oils).
  2. Silicone Emulsification Percentage: Easy Cream Maker can emulsify Silicone at approximately 10%. This is considered a safe level with a very low chance of separation.

In summary, Easy Cream Maker is generally recommended for formulas with an oil phase (including Silicone) of around 10% or less for stable emulsification.
