Emulsifier ERCAMULS AE V 50 g

Getting Reliable Emulsion Texture in Small Test Batches

Emulsifier ERCAMULS AE V in the 50 g package belongs to the category of Emulsifiers, which brings together components designed to bind water and oil phases into one homogeneous system. This emulsifier is primarily valued in skincare manufacturing, including creams, lotions, balms and body milk formulations. Its molecular structure allows formulators to build oil-in-water emulsions with a light, non-greasy feel, which is why it appears frequently in daytime facial creams and moisturizing lotions across the cosmetics industry.

The main application of this component lies in creating stable cosmetic emulsions with oil phase content ranging from 5 to 30 percent. It works well with vegetable oils, silicones and fatty alcohols, providing emulsion stability against temperature fluctuations and extended shelf storage. In industrial settings, it is also used in hair conditioners, sun care products and select decorative cosmetics, where texture uniformity throughout the product lifespan matters most.

The emulsifier is introduced into the oil phase and heated together with it to 70-75 degrees Celsius, then combined with a water phase preheated to the same temperature. Recommended dosage typically ranges from 2 to 6 percent of the total formula weight, depending on the desired consistency and oil content. Higher dosage produces thicker, cream-like textures, while lower dosage suits lighter lotions.

This component pairs well with other emulsifiers to reinforce system stability, such as BehePhos Soft Emulsifier, which helps achieve thicker, separation-resistant emulsions. Interesting results also come from combining it with EASYNOV Emulsifier when developing lightweight moisturizing textures, and with Olivem 1000 for formulators seeking a naturally derived base. The 50 g package size is convenient for home-based cosmetic making and small trial batches, allowing formulators to test a recipe before scaling production.

Store the emulsifier in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight, in tightly sealed packaging. Under proper storage conditions the component retains its properties for an extended period. Before use, check the container for any foreign particles or unusual changes in consistency.
