INCI Name:
Potassium Lauroyl Wheat Amino Acids, Palm Glycerides, Capryloyl Glycine
INCI Name Cosmos version:
Potassium Lauroyl Wheat Amino Acids, Palm Glycerides, Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate
Description
A combination of vegetable-based substances, lipoaminoacids and palm glycerides, for nanoemulsions. Nanocream is a O/W emulsifier that creates translucid micellar emulsions with particularly fine particles dimensions, from 100 to 300 nm.
- It forms stable systems with a low interfacial tension
- It doesn’t lead to flocculation, sedimentation or coalescence
- It is an excellent carrier for cosmetic active ingredients (Patent MI2005A000218)
Origin
Vegetable origin
Application
- Sprayable emulsions
- Wet wipes
