EMOGREEN™ is a range of high-performance, plant-based cosmetic emollients developed for formulators looking for elegant sensory alternatives to conventional silicone oils and other traditional emollients.
The range includes different grades designed to provide different sensory and formulation profiles. For example, EMOGREEN™ L15 is a very light bio-based emollient based on C15-19 Alkane, while EMOGREEN™ L19 is a light bio-based emollient. EMOGREEN™ C69 combines C15-19 Alkane with Coco-Caprylate/Caprate, and EMOGREEN™ HP40 combines C15-19 Alkane with Hydrogenated Polyfarnesene.
Depending on the selected grade, Emogreen can provide a fresh, gliding, silky, soft or powdery skin feel. It can also be used in hair care formulations to provide a smooth, silicone-like sensory effect and support shine, manageability and anti-frizz performance.
Emogreen ingredients are particularly suitable for modern formulations focused on plant-based, biodegradable and high-sensory cosmetic concepts. Several grades are described by Seppic as plant-based and readily biodegradable.
