Description

Reflez OW 801 is a non-ionic emulsifying system composed of Cetearyl Glucoside, Sorbitan Olivate and Cetearyl Alcohol. Designed for oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, it enables the creation of stable, homogeneous and comfortable textures.

The combination of a glucoside and olive-derived components contributes to a well-balanced emulsion structure, both stable and flexible. Reflez OW 801 is suitable for face, body and hair care formulations seeking a controlled and natural sensorial profile.

INCI: Cetearyl Glucoside, Sorbitan Olivate, Cetearyl Alcohol

Technical & Sensory Profile

Formulation

Reflez OW 801 is incorporated into the oil phase and requires appropriate heating to ensure complete melting of the system. It forms stable O/W emulsions with a wide range of vegetable and synthetic oils.

Incorporation conditions and use levels should be adjusted according to the formulation concept and desired viscosity.

Recommended Usage Level

The use level depends on the emulsion type and the targeted texture, particularly in O/W creams and lotions.

Sensorial Properties

Reflez OW 801 delivers a softer, more melting texture compared to traditional glucoside-based emulsifier systems, with improved slip during application. The inclusion of olive-derived components provides a more comfortable and less waxy skin feel, while maintaining emulsion stability. The finish is lighter and less structured than emulsifier systems relying solely on fatty alcohol and glucoside combinations.
