Xanthan gum acetate ester network: BeiersdorfRecent Research Landscape

Volatile aromatic compounds like vanillin and benzyl acetate degrade or separate in aqueous cosmetic bases, leading to inconsistent fragrance profiles. These formulations utilize xanthan gum networks to physically suspend and stabilize specific acetate derivatives for uniform delivery.

What technical problems is Beiersdorf addressing in Xanthan gum acetate ester network?

Microbial degradation of formulations

(2)evidences

Aldehyde-based compounds like vanillin and benzaldehyde are prone to oxidation and degradation in cosmetic formulations. Preventing this loss of potency ensures product efficacy and shelf-life.

Poor cosmetic sensory appeal

(2)evidences

Incompatibility between polysaccharide thickeners and aromatic ester solvents leads to phase separation or precipitation. Resolving this ensures consistent texture and shelf-life in topical applications.
