MACKSPEC® HA40 is a versatile, easy-to-use emulsifier, rheology modifier, and thickener that enhances stability in formulations without requiring neutralization. Suitable for both cold and hot processes, it is effective in stabilizing various oils and pigments, and is compatible with active ingredients such as DHA, AHA’s, and peroxide. It can be added after mixing oil and water phases to create smooth gels and creams with a satin sensory profile. MACKSPEC® HA40 works well across a broad pH range (3 to 12) and can be used in formulations from fluid sprays to thicker products, providing a fresh, melting sensation making it ideal for skin care applications.
