ALTER-GELITIUM

A GELLING AGENT ALLOWING PERFECT TRANSPARENCY. PLANT ALTERNATIVE TO POLYMERS

100%CCPFHCV

INCI

SCLEROTIUM GUM

DESCRIPTION

ALTER-GELITIUM
Ideal to formulate very clear gels. Can be also used as a co-emulsifyer.
Rheological agent to formulate extremely transparent and clear aqueous gels. It is also used as a co-emulsifier to stabilize emulsions.
100% natural, ALTER-GELITIUM is a gelling and stabilizing agent for emulsions. It is a perfect alternative to synthetic polymers. It is a non-ionic agent and therefore can not interact with other ingredients in the formulas. Used as a co-emulsifier, it allows to form a network around the oily particles to avoid phase shift. 

Function
- Gelling agent: texturizing to form very clear, transparent aqueous gels.
- Co-emulsifier: to stabilize emulsions thanks to the network formed between the oil droplets.

FORMULATION
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:
• Dosage : From 0.1% to 2%

PROTOCOL:
• Incorporate the powder into the aqueous phase under agitation, and mix for 30 minutes at 45°C.
• Thickened with electrolytes
• Compatible with non-ionic surfactants
• For use in a pH range of 3 to 11
• Stable to 20% alcohol (maximum)

ORIGIN

Resulting from the fermentation of the Sclerotium mushroom (Non GMO). 

PROPERTIES

• Viscosity agent that brings great transparency to gels.
• Non-ionic gelling agent
• Stabilizes emulsions
• Stable over a wide pH range (3 to 11).
• Few incompatibilities, therefore ideal for gelling in the presence of delicate ingredients such as alcohols, salts...
• Thickened with electrolytes
• Incompatibilities with anionic and cationic surfactants

SENSORY:
• Soft and smooth texture
• Filmogenic action on the skin.

APPLICATIONS

Ideal to formulate skincare product suchs as face serum, lotion, cleansers, creams
