Anhydrous surfactant filler matrix: LorealRecent Research Landscape

Water-based formulations increase shipping weight and require preservatives, which is mitigated by stabilizing high-concentration anionic surfactants within a solid organic filler network. This architecture enables plastic-free cosmetic packaging while maintaining rapid dissolution during consumer use.

What technical problems is Loreal addressing in Anhydrous surfactant filler matrix?

Surfactant system phase instability

(26)evidences

Complex surfactant mixtures often suffer from phase separation or poor viscosity retention when incorporating oils and polymers. Maintaining structural integrity ensures consistent delivery of active ingredients and shelf-life reliability.

Inadequate surfactant dissolution rate

(12)evidences

Conventional aqueous surfactant systems suffer from microbial degradation, chemical instability, and high shipping volumes. Concentrating active ingredients into a stable anhydrous solid reduces transport costs and eliminates the need for preservatives.
