Key Benefits:
Formulation Expertise:
Beauté by Roquette ST 320 is easy to disperse in warm water. It needs heating to 80-85°C and stirring for 20 minutes to ensure full hydration and viscosity build.
Lecinol S-GF needs to be stirred while heated to avoid forming a gelled layer at the bottom of the oil phase.
