  • Partition coefficient ester compositions
    Patent number: 8916721
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to ester compositions which result from the trans-esterification of a triglyceride having an iodine value of between 85 and 175 mg KOH/gm with a fatty alcohol having a melting point of between 35° and 75° C., followed by cooling and removal of the polar phase which results. Surprisingly, we have found the composition has unique properties when used in cosmetic applications.

  • Method of increasing viscosity of oil-based compositions and compositions resulting therefrom
    Patent number: 6630151
    Abstract: A process of preparing a composition of enhanced viscosity comprises adding to a liquid oil, a high molecular weight solid monocarboxylic acid having a number average molecular weight of less than 3,000. The resulting composition is considerably more viscous than the compositions of the prior art and has particular applicability in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
