Qualities

Sucragel® AP V2 is a natural liquid emulsifier of Vegetable origin for use in a range of products which are safe and mild to the skin. It thickens any non-polar lipophilic substance at room temperature and is a natural dispersant for lipophilic substances. Sucrose Ester Gel AP V2 is a natural liquid emulsifier and oil thickening agent. It can be used to gel most non-polar oily materials with a usage level of about 10-15% to create an oily gel, adding the oil phase into the Sucragel® AP V2 under vigorous stirring. The oily gel can be washed off very easily because as soon as the water is added it emulsifies into a milky liquid.

Sucragel® AP V2 is an oil-free Sucrose Ester Gel so has a lower usage level and is more cost-effective compared to Sucragel® AOF. Sucragel® AP V2 can be used to disperse oily actives, fragrances and dyes into water. By stirring in a small amount (2-5%) of Sucragel® AP V2 into the lipophilic active (0.1-0.5%) and then stirring in the water phase the oily ingredient will readily disperse.
