Caprol®

Caprol polyglycerol esters (PGE’s) are generally prepared by esterification of select polyglycerol molecules with fatty acids or by alcoholysis of a vegetable oil with a polyglycerol. Their wide HLB range make them suitable for both w/o and o/w systems. PGE molecular weights vary from low to high and form at room temperature ranges from a viscous liquid to a brittle solid. PGE’s are also useful as solubilizers, clouding agents, crystallization inhibitors, gloss and suspending agents. They prevent agglomeration in several cosmetic applications including physical sun screen agents.
