Usage & Handling Guide

  1. Choose the right grade (cosmetic/technical/food) based on your product.

  2. Add AEO-15 to water or oil phase (50-60℃ recommended for better solubility) at 0.5%-5% dosage (adjust per formula).

  3. Stir gently for 5-10 minutes until fully dissolved and the system is uniform.

  4. Proceed with subsequent production steps (e.g., adding other ingredients).

    Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain stability.


FAQ

  1. Q: Can AEO-15 be used in both water-based and oil-based formulations?
    A: Yes, it works in both. It dissolves well in water (especially at 50-60℃) and effectively emulsifies oil-water mixtures, making it suitable for most water or oil-based product formulas.


  2. Q: What's the typical dosage range of AEO-15, and can it be adjusted?
    A: The general dosage is 0.5%-5%. It can be adjusted based on your needs—increase for stronger emulsification (e.g., in thick creams) or decrease for milder effects (e.g., in light lotions).


  3. Q: Is AEO-15 safe for sensitive skin when used in cosmetics?
    A: Cosmetic-grade AEO-15 has low irritation and meets skin safety standards. However, we recommend a small patch test first, especially for products targeting highly sensitive skin groups.


  4. Q: How should AEO-15 be stored, and what's its shelf life?
    A: Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Unopened, it has a 2-year shelf life; once opened, seal tightly and use within 6 months to maintain stability.


  5. Q: Can food-grade AEO-15 be used directly in edible products?
    A: Yes, food-grade AEO-15 complies with food safety regulations. But ensure the dosage follows local food additive standards (usually ≤3%) and mix it fully into the food system.
