Patent ID: 8795692

Claim:
A prolonged-stability, low-viscosity, fine oil-in-water emulsion comprising: A) an emulsifier mixture consisting of: a) 75 to 99.5% by weight of at least one nonionic primary emulsifier selected from the group consisting of polyglyceryl laurates, and mixtures of polyglyceryl laurates with sorbitan laurates, and b) 0.5 to 25% by weight of at least one secondary emulsifier containing one or more acid functions and selected from the group consisting of partly neutralized or neutralized citric acid partial esters whose hydrophobic radicals each contain from 10 to 18 carbon atoms; B) one or more cosurfactants; and C) one or more oils, with the proviso that the water phase content of the emulsion is 70% by weight or greater based on the overall emulsion, and said oil-in-water emulsion is free of polyethylene glycol (PEG).
