Hydrogenated Lecithin 1 kg

Hydrogenated Lecithin phospholipid emulsifying ingredient for lamellar cosmetic systems

Hydrogenated Lecithin is a hydrogenated phospholipid ingredient derived from plant lecithin through controlled hydrogenation. This process increases oxidative stability and improves compatibility with modern cosmetic formulations. The material appears as white to cream colored flakes, granules or powder with neutral odor. The amphiphilic structure allows interaction with both aqueous and lipid phases. In water it forms dispersions and lamellar structures that contribute to stable emulsions and uniform texture. The hydrogenated form offers improved thermal and oxidative stability compared to standard lecithin, making it suitable for industrial cosmetic manufacturing.

Properties and skin performance

In cosmetic formulations Hydrogenated Lecithin forms soft lamellar structures that create smooth cream textures. Emulsions become stable and visually uniform. When applied to the skin the formulation spreads evenly and maintains a balanced sensory profile with a soft finish.

Industry applications

Hydrogenated Lecithin is widely used in creams, emulsions, serums, lotions and gel systems for skin care and hair care formulations. It is commonly incorporated into lamellar emulsions, liposomal delivery systems and functional cosmetic products. The ingredient is suitable for SPA formulations, professional skincare lines and advanced cosmetic development. Due to stable performance it is widely used in private label and contract manufacturing.

Formula example

Hydrogenated Lecithin 10 g
Jojoba oil 45 ml
Sweet almond oil 40 ml
Caprylic triglycerides 50 ml
Cetearyl alcohol 22 g
Purified water 800 ml
Glycerin 55 g
Preservative system 2 g

Cetearyl alcohol is blended with the oils and caprylic triglycerides and heated until a homogeneous oil phase forms. Hydrogenated Lecithin is incorporated into the lipid phase and mixed until evenly dispersed. In a separate vessel purified water and glycerin are combined to form the aqueous phase. Both phases are blended under intensive mixing to create a stable emulsion. After cooling the preservative system is added and mixing continues until uniform. The pH is adjusted to a balanced level suitable for lamellar emulsion stability. The final product is a smooth cream with stable lamellar texture.

Hydrogenated Lecithin is positioned for B2B cosmetic manufacturers developing lamellar emulsions and phospholipid based delivery systems. It supports formulation stability, industrial processing compatibility and reproducible performance in scalable production.
