Multiphase emulsion deodorant matrices: UnileverRecent Research Landscape

Active ingredient separation in volatile environments leads to inconsistent efficacy and staining. These innovations engineer the interfacial tension between oil and water phases to ensure uniform delivery.

What technical problems is Unilever addressing in Multiphase emulsion deodorant matrices?

Textile malodour persistence

(12)evidences

Standard deodorants fail to prevent the transfer and retention of sweat-induced odors on garment fibers. Addressing this limitation extends product efficacy beyond the skin to prevent long-term fabric degradation and olfactory discomfort.

Inconsistent active ingredient delivery

(3)evidences

Multiphase deodorant matrices suffer from ingredient segregation and structural breakdown over time. Preventing these failures ensures consistent active ingredient delivery and product integrity.

Stick product structural deformation

(2)evidences

Mechanical failure or collapse of the matrix during application or storage. Maintaining integrity ensures consistent delivery and prevents premature product degradation.
