VELSAN SC = SORBITAN CAPRYLATE 

CAS Number: 60177-36-8
EC number: 262-098-3
Molecular Formula: C14H26O6


Velsan SC is produced by esterification of sorbitan with caprylic acid.
Velsan SC is a 100% natural multifunctional ingredient. 
Velsan SC is 100% natural, preservative-free multi-functional ingredient.
Velsan SC is produced by esterification of sorbitan with caprylic acid.
Velsan SC is a non-sensitizing, non-irritating antimicrobial auxiliary.


Velsan SC is a 100% natural multifunctional ingredient. 
Velsan SC acts as a preservation booster offering the possibility to lower the amount of preservatives used, yet keeping cosmetics safe. 
At the same time Velsan SC acts as an emollient and/or emulsifier depending on the formulation. 
Velsan SC can minimize 2 or 3 different ingredients due to its multifunctional properties.
Velsan SC is a novel, highly effective synergistic booster developed to reduce the amount of preservatives in cosmetics.


One of Velsan SC's main raw materials, called Sorbitol is produced from the sugar of wheat and corn, while the other, Caprylic Acid, is derived from palm or coconut oil.
Velsan SC is a new 100% based natural hydrotrope and emulsifying agent for cosmetic formulations that supports the cosmetic industry’s move towards lower preservative levels.
Velsan SC is a synergistic aid that boosts the performance of standard preservatives, like aromatic alcohols and organic acids. 


As a result, Velsan SC decreases the overall amount needed for safe preservation, thereby reducing the odor issue known from some preservatives. 
When used in combination with non-listed actives, manufacturers can claim “preservative-free” for their cosmetic and personal care products.
Velsan SC is a low odor, non-sensitizing and non-irritating antimicrobial support ingredient suitable for rinse-off and leave-on cosmetics. 
Velsan SC is non-halogenated and without the potential for formaldehyde-release. 
These benefits result in overall milder formulations.


Velsan SC is a monoester of caprylic acid and hexitol anhydrides derived fromsorbitol.
A handy multi-functional helper ingredient that helps water and oil to mix (aka emulsifier), helps to thicken up a formula and boosts the effectiveness of traditional preservatives. 
Velsan SC is 100 % renewable, natural derived preservative booster, which is not listed as a preservative and can be used globally and as a multifunctional co-emulsifying agent for cosmetic formulations.
