Brand New Olivem 1000 16 ounces Olivem 1000 is a PEG-free non-ionic oil-in-water emulsifier developed from natural olive chemistry. It is an emulsifier and thickener which is compatible with a wide variety of cosmetic and active ingredients over a wide pH range (3 to 12). Safe and clinically tested to be hypoallergenic, it provides creams with an excellent spreadability with no soapy effect. Applications Day and night creams Face cleansers and deep hydrating emulsions Face and eye-contour creams Hypoallergenic tested creams Make-up: mascara, creamy foundations and eye-liners Sun-screen and after-sun products Baby care produts Hair conditioning creams Self tanning products Formulating Notes While an HLB value has been provided to us by the manufacturer, Olivem 1000's chemistry does not really work based on the HLB system. Its emulsification mechanism is based on liquid crystal formation and therefore the HLB value is not so critcal for this emulsifier. We find the stability of Olivem 1000 is improved with the addition of a water-phase thickener like our Xanthan Gum (Soft or Clear), used at about 0.2%.  Consider the use of a co-emulsifier such as Lotioncrafter GMS (Glyceryl Stearate) at 1 - 2% to further improve stability. Fatty alcohols such as Behenyl Alcohol, Cetyl Alcohol or Cetearyl Alcohol can be added to the oil phase for thickening if needed. Typical usage rates: Low Viscosity (serums and lotions): 3 - 4% High Viscosity (lotions and creams): 7 - 8% Appearance:  Off White Flakes  Solubility:  Soluble in oil  SAP Value:  90-120  pH (sol 15%):  5-7  HLB:  9 External use only - Not for ingestion Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
