Albion Develops New Formulation Using Heated High-Pressure Emulsification

 Albion has conducted extensive research to achieve the immediate firmness of skin lotion, just like emulsions and creams. We have succeeded in developing a lotion that gives you a feeling of firmness immediately after use.

The raw materials and amounts that can be added to cosmetics differ depending on the type, and the resulting skin sensation varies greatly. For example, it is easy to create firmness in creams and milky lotions by using solid oils, but it is difficult to add solid oils in skin lotions because the amount of oil in the lotion itself is small, and the addition of solid oils tends to cause poor stability.

Therefore, the immediate feeling of firmness obtained with lotion is often expressed with water-soluble polymers and polyhydric alcohols, which inevitably differs from the feeling of skin obtained with creams and milky lotions. rice field.

In our research, we focused on a new high-pressure emulsification method in order to achieve the firmness of creams and milky lotions in cosmetics. High-pressure emulsification is a technology that refines emulsified particles dispersed in water by applying high pressure during emulsification. rice field. Since there was a high possibility that this was due to the fact that the solid oil was not sufficiently finely dispersed, another high-pressure emulsification was investigated.

In the next study, we used a heating and high-pressure emulsification method that controls the high temperature by applying heat during high-pressure emulsification and disperses it more finely. As a result, it became possible to finely disperse the solid oil in a specific ratio together with the phospholipid, and a stable lotion with high transparency was obtained. Also, as a result of particle size measurement, it was confirmed that the particles were finely dispersed from the average particle size.
