It is highly hygroscopic, which also accounts for the laxative effect for which it is often taken internally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn cosmetics, it is mostly used to \u003cstrong\u003estabilize water-in-oil emulsions\u003c\/strong\u003e. Since the inner phase in emulsions tends to coalesce - i.e., the dispersed droplets want to flow together - which can lead to complete phase separation, it is recommended to prevent coalescence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince water forms the inner phase in W\/O emulsions, the addition of electrolytes (salts) can reduce the attraction of the water droplets to one another. Magnesium sulfate also ensures a reduced interfacial tension between water and oil, thus allowing for a denser arrangement of the emulsifier at the interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis causes the water droplets to be distributed more finely and to remain so, and it makes W\/O emulsions easier to create and more stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, magnesium sulfate can also be used as a base for bath salts or as a moisture-binding substance in products for skin and hair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUsage concentration and processing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e0.5 - 1% stabilizing agent in W\/O emulsions and as an active ingredient\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eup to 100% in bath salts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Innometics","offers":[{"title":"50 g","offer_id":46788575035724,"sku":"ADD007-50","price":3.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 g","offer_id":56535580934476,"sku":"ADD007-250","price":17.56,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0553\/6111\/0196\/files\/innometics-produkt_51feaa21-24b2-47ae-8b22-9d3f190eee4c.jpg?v=1686057024","url":"https:\/\/innometiko.shop\/en\/products\/magnesiumsulfat","provider":"INNOMETICS GmbH- Naturkosmetik Rohstoffe \u0026 Know how","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
