Acconon
Acconon products represent a wide range of nonionic surfactants which are excellent primary or secondary emulsifiers in o/w systems. They are multifunctional products which are useful as dispersants, solubilizers, viscosity control agents, and refatting agents. The water and oil solubility (HLB) can be varied through alkoxylation of carefully selected raw materials that include oils, esters, alcohols, or fatty acids.
Capmul
The Capmul product range consists of MCG and Propylene Glycol Esters. This product line provides clear solution to the pharmaceutical industry’s challenge to improve bioavailability of today’s complex compounds. Specifically, Capmul MCM is a lipophilic vehicle, when used in conjunction or in combination with other excipients, will assist in the development of solution, suspension, emulsion, and microemulsion formulations.
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 their form at room temperature ranges from a viscous liquid to a brittle solid. PGE’s are also useful as solubilizers, clouding agents, crystallization inhibitors, lip glossers, and suspending agents.
