Emulsifier EMULPHARMA 90, 1 kg

Choosing a Reliable Emulsifying System for Small-Batch Cream Production

Emulsifier Emulpharma 90 supplied in a 1 kg pack is a versatile emulsifying agent widely used in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical manufacturing sectors to create stable oil-in-water emulsions. It belongs to the Emulsifiers category, which brings together materials designed for building consistent, non-separating water and oil phase systems. Real-world demand for this type of emulsifier comes primarily from personal care manufacturing — creams, lotions, body emulsions and after-sun products — as well as pharmaceutical topical formulations such as ointments and liniments. The 1 kg packaging fits studio-scale and small-batch production well, making it suitable for private label brands, cosmetic laboratories and workshops testing formulas before scaling up to larger production runs.

The emulsifier functions by lowering the interfacial tension between the fat phase and the aqueous phase, allowing oils, waxes and water-soluble actives to form a homogeneous, shelf-stable dispersion. This mechanism makes Emulpharma 90 valuable in day and night creams, sun care emulsions, after-shave balms, and pharmaceutical external preparations. Formulators frequently combine several emulsifying systems to fine-tune texture: adding a small portion of Emulsifier Plantasens HE 20 lightens the overall emulsion and improves spreadability on skin, while Olivem 2020 Emulsifier lends the finished emulsion a velvety, richer feel along with better thermal stability during storage.

Recommended dosage of Emulpharma 90 ranges from 3 to 8 percent of the total formula weight, depending on the desired viscosity and stability. The emulsifier is introduced into the oil phase during heating to 70-75 degrees Celsius, together with waxes, oils and other structuring agents. The water phase is heated separately to a matching temperature, and both phases are combined under continuous mixing — a critical step for achieving a fine, stable dispersion. Using a homogenizer or high-shear mixer at this stage significantly improves long-term stability and reduces the risk of phase separation.

Emulpharma 90 is compatible with vegetable and synthetic oils, silicone derivatives, and common humectants such as glycerin, panthenol and hyaluronic acid. For a lighter, weightless finish, formulators often supplement the recipe with Emulsifier NatureMulse, which improves sensory properties and eases application on the skin. This combination works particularly well for lightweight daily moisturizers and sensitive skin formulations.

The emulsifier should be stored in a dry, cool place, protected from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations, in its original tightly sealed packaging. Proper storage conditions preserve the emulsifying performance of the product throughout its shelf life, which is essential when planning production stock for a 1 kg working batch.
