Summary: | Methyl glucose based emulsifiers such as Glucamate SSE-20 ( PEG-20
methyl glucose sesquistearate) and Glucate SS (methyl glucose
sesquistearate) are widely used in the application of cosmetic products. The
methyl glucoside products have excellent safety, mildness and effectiveness.
Although these methyl glucosides are widely used as emulsifiers, little is known
about their phase behaviour in binary and ternary systems. The phase
behaviours in binary and ternary system have been studied at 80°c under
visual observation by polarizing light and they were confirmed by polarization
microscope. In the binary system, lamellar phases (La) were observed at the
combination of 60/40, 70/30 and 80/20 of glucamate SSE-20 and glucate SS. It
was identified as maltese crosses and oily streaks. When heated at 80°C, the
oily streaks pattern of 70/30 took a longer time to change to isotropic phases if
compared to the other ratios. This observation correlated well with yield val ue,
viscosity, and thixotropy in the following order 70/30> 60/40>80/20.
In the ternary system (mixed sugar based emulsifiers/water/medium
chain triglycerides), the optical pattern indicated a combination of maltese
crosses + oily streaks, maltese crosses and oily streaks texture alone. This
system exhibited viscoelastic properties
Equal ratio of medium chain triglycerides and water (1/1) were emulsified
with 5% w/w of mixed non ionic sugar-based surfactants with various
hydrophilic-lipophilic balance val ues (HLBs). The HLB numbers ranged from
6.6 to 15.0. The effect of H LB and with and without hydrocolloids on stability,
particle size droplet and rheological properties of the resulting emulsions were
studied. The presence of hydrocolloids in the emulsion system dramatically
lowers the interfacial tension and thus increased interparticle attraction, weak
van der Waals and increased steric repulsion to stabilize the system. The
systems show increasing viscosity, yield value, critical stress and exhibit
viscoelastic properties The ratio of bound water and bulk water in emulsion system is
determined by thermogravimetry. Shifting the ratio of bound water and bulk
water may result in regulated release of water, a principle that can be used to
produce cream or lotion with controlled release of moisture |
