Luvigel EM is a thickener for the production of cosmetic products.
Luvigel EM is a milky emulsion of sodium acrylates copolymer in caprylic/capric triglyceride and water.
Luvigel EM is used as a thickener in all kinds of cosmetic emulsions.
Name: LUVIGEL EM
Segment: Personal care
INCI name: Sodium Acrylates CopolymerCaprylicCaprylic / Capric Triglyceride Capric Triglyceride
CAS numbers: 73398-61-5 / 65381-09-1
Luvigel EM gives a fresh and cooling skinfeel during application followed by a non-tacky and chalky after-feel.
Additionally Luvigel EM offers good thickening power and stabilizing effect, and can also give a whiter and shinier aspect to formulations.
Luvigel EM is free of preservatives, suitable for cold processing and can be added at any stage of the formulation process.
Luvigel EM lends an innovative freshness to modern face-, body-,sun-care and decorative cosmetic formulations.
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (and) Sodium Acrylates Copolymer.

Processing of Luvigel EM:
There are several ways to prepare Emulsions with Luvigel EM.
Method 1:
1. Dispersion of Luvigel EM in the oily phase
2. Addition to the aqueous phase with stirring
3. Homogenization of the emulsion
Luvigel EM can be readily metered, as it does not cake or form dust.
It is not necessary to wait for the thickener to swell, or to neutralize the gel.
The polyacrylic acid is already neutralized and automatically gives the desired viscosity.
Method 2:
1. Preparation of the aqueous and oily phases (without thickener)
2. Conventional preparation of the emulsion
3. Addition of Luvigel EM with homogenization
With this method, Luvigel EM can be added at any temperature.
The viscosity of the formulations is independent of the method of manufacture.
It is possible to correct the viscosity of a thickened emulsion by adding more Luvigel EM.
In the manufacture of aqueous Gels (e.g. hair gels) it is recommended to add a small quantity of an solubilizer such as Cremophor CO 40.
This facilitates the release of the thickener and gives a homogeneous gel structure.
Features of Luvigel EM:
-Carrier emollient from renewable resources.

Applications of Luvigel EM:
After Sun
Baby Care and Cleansing
Body Care
Color Care
Face Care
Face Cleansing
Sun Protection
Stability/Storage of Luvigel EM:
Luvigel EM is stable for at least 1 year in the original sealed containers at room temperature.
Protect Luvigel EM from frost.
Luvigel EM can form a sediment and it is recommended to stir it before use.
Toxicology of Luvigel EM:
Luvigel EM has been investigated, and no evidence of harmful effects was found for the recommended concentrations and fi elds of application.
However, because of the wide range of possible applications, often in combination with other products, processors must conduct their own safety assessment on their products.
