dermosoft® GMCY MB consists of the 100% plant-derived, single ingredient Glyceryl Caprylate. This multifunctional wetting agent provides moisturizing properties and is suitable for many cosmetic applications. It has a co-emulsifying effect in emulsions, solubilization, and pigment dispersions. Besides this multitude of cosmetic functions, the material also shows strong antimicrobial activity.
This product is incompatible with lecithin or phospholipid structures and can be destabilized by higher concentrations of surfactants. To avoid this, the lecithin should first be hydrated and a small concentration of dermosoft® GMCY MB should be added to the oil phase. Alkaline substances, pH > 7 combined with high temperatures can lead to hydrolysis of this product.
