General Information

Oleochemicals are derived from a naturally renewable resource: natural fats and oils.
Oleochemistry splits these raw materials to obtain their constituents, glycerine and fatty acids,
and then recombines them with other molecules or with each other.
Oleochemistry uses the biodegradable, non-toxic and non-irritant properties of natural fats
and oils to produce a wide range of chemicals.
The production of Radia and Nouracid oleochemicals is an integrated operation from
fatty acids and glycerine to oleochemical derivatives, specialty and performance chemicals.
Traditionally, most end uses of oleochemicals have resulted from their lack of toxicity and
from the low skin and eye irritation displayed by the hydrocarbon chains present in natural
fatty materials.
Today, governments and industry are increasingly aware of the combination of efficiency and
environmental compatibility offered by oleochemicals. In recent years Oleon Research has
developed many new environmentally friendly oleochemicals, such as a biodegradable drilling
mud fluid, a lubricant for water-based drilling muds, base oils for biodegradable lubricants,
deinking chemicals and non-VOC solvents.

fatty acids
Oleon, the leader on the European oleochemical scene, markets a wide range of fatty acids.
Radiacid and Nouracid fatty acids are derived from animal fats and oils such as beef tallow
and from vegetable oils such as soybean oil, rapeseed oil, coconut and palm kernel oils, palm
oil, etc. Radiacid and Nouracid fatty acids are produced by Oleon in its plant at Ertvelde
near Ghent, Belgium (which went into production in 1958), and its Kosher and HALAL certified
plant in Emmerich, Germany (in production since 1908). Over the years these plants have grown
to their present status: not only one of the biggest but also one of the most modern and
efficient oleochemical plants worldwide. In Ertvelde fatty acids and glycerine are produced.
In the Emmerich plant the production of specialty fatty acids takes place, along with ketones,
technical oils and vitamins.

natural glycerine
The applications of natural glycerine are based on a unique combination of properties:
it is a tasteless and odorless hygroscopic, non-toxic and non-irritant viscous liquid with a
plasticizing and lubricating activity, and it contains three free hydroxyl groups, supplying
chemical reactivity.

fatty esters
The performance-directed esterification or transesterification of our own fatty acids, fatty
alcohols, hydrogenated triglycerides and glycerine with other acids and alcohols leads to a
wide range of oily, fatty or waxy substances, each with its own specific physical and chemical
properties. Almost all fatty esters display the inherent advantages of their raw materials, natural
fats and oils: they are non-toxic, non-irritating and biodegradable. The number of possible fatty
esters is virtually unlimited. So are the combinations of functions they can perform.

RADIA OLEOCHEMICALS FOR PERSONAL CARE


Radia Oleochemicals are non-toxic, non-irritating and fully biodegradable products supplied
by natural vegetable oils such as palm oil, coconut oil, sunflower oil,
Oleon proposes a wide range of raw materials for personal care products and topical
preparations. Radia Oleochemicals meet the requirements of this high quality demanding
market:they are from vegetable origin, they are odorless and show great sensorial properties.
The major Radia Oleochemicals for these applications are presented in this brochure
according to their main functions. The following list is not exhaustive.
We invite you to contact us for more details.

SAFE FOR HUMANKIND AND


FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
(The environment and humankind: Oleon takes care of everything)
All fatty esters presented in this brochure display the inherent advantages of their feedstock,
natural fats and oils: non-toxic, non-irritating, biodegradable and environmentally friendly
in general. Oleon encourages its customers and potential customers of Radia oleochemicals
to give proper regard to human health and environmental quality. Material Safety, Hygiene
and Environmental data sheets are available on request for all products. The W.G.K.
(Wassergefhrdungsklasse) of all fatty esters in this brochure is between 0 and 1.

VEGETABLE OR ANIMAL ORIGIN


The fatty acids that are used to produce these fatty esters are vegetable or animal fats and
oils (triglycerides). The composition of these fatty acids is either the natural composition of
the triglycerides or a technical cut. For some grades a pure fatty acid is required.
The origin of the beef tallow and the production process used guarantee that our final
products satisfy the European BSE-legislation. The presence of GMO (Genetically Modified
Organisms) is linked to the use of fatty acids of soybean or corn. These fatty acids are not
used in the range presented here.

STANDARD AVAILABILITY & PACKAGING


Given the wide range of esters and our policy of continuous development, it is almost
impossible to guarantee the availability in stock of all esters at all times. If a product is
required that is not currently available, our sales organization will inform you and reach an
agreement that takes the minimum batch size of the relevant esterification unit into account.
Bulk, as liquids at min. 15C above cloud point or melting point. Liquids: 175 kg net drums or
containers of ca. 1000 liters. Flakes or powder: 25 kg net bags on 1000 kg pallets or in 500 kg
net big bags.

FUNCTION

Personal care

GLYCERINe
The ability to hold and attract water, the humectancy, of glycerine is stronger than that of a
polyol such as sorbitol. It contributes to the stability of the products and supplements the skins
water content. Glycerine is miscible with water and alcohol. It is a solvent for lower alcohols,
glycols, a partial solvent for low molecular weight esters and ethers and it is insoluble in oils
and higher alcohols. Among the various other properties related to the hygroscopicity and
solubilization characteristics of glycerine are: plasticizing, binding and the enhancement of
smoothness and gloss. Glycerine can also act as a preservative, as a barrier for oily materials,
as a fixative for perfumes and as a carrier of pigments and other ingredients. Many personal
care products contain glycerine: all types of barrier and protective creams, cleansing lotions,
shaving lotions; liposome formulations; barrier and protective gels, clear gels and sticks; nail
hardeners, cuticle removers; toothpaste, mouth wash; eye shadows, face powders, make-up
creams; transparent cleansing compounds; clear toilet soaps; perfumes; etc. Our pharmaceutical
and chemically pure glycerines meet the requirements of the U.S. and European Pharmacopoeia.

Emulsions
Monovalent fatty acid soaps form oil-in-water emulsions. High-melting stearic acids are used
in emulsions with bodying properties for body milks, hydrating creams, protective creams, etc.
Soaps of oleic acid yield more fluid emulsions, which modify the viscosity of stearic soap
based cream.
13

Soaps
Stearic acids are products of choice for the manufacture of luxury soaps and shaving sticks
or foams. Oleic acids are recommended to produce liquid pump soaps. Coconut acids are
outstanding foamers, used in shaving foams and aerosols. The foam they produce is extremely
soft and offers great ease of expulsion.

The most popular method of achieving moisturization is the use of humectants and emollients.
Emollients form a semi-occlusive film on the skin and make the skin feel soft and smooth.
They often reduce TEWL (transepidermal water loss) which tends to increase the water
content of the stratum corneum. Radia esters presented in the table below are excellent
emollients and solvents. They will confer a light and non-fatty texture to creams and lotions.
Partial or total replacement of vegetable or mineral oils by these esters will reduce the perceived greasiness and improves the stability of cosmetics formulations. Radia esters are very
compatible and can be used in most type of products requiring emolliency: creams, lotions,
bath oils, sun oils, hair conditioners, shaving creams, make-up preparations,

Anionic emulsifiers

Nonionic emulsifiers

Radia emulsifiers belong to the anionic and non-ionic surfactant classes. Anionic emulsifiers
presented below are outstanding candidates for natural formulations. They are primary o/w
emulsifiers recommended for all types of skin care preparations. Selection of the suitable
emulsifier can be oriented by the HLB system which represents the hydrophilic and lipophilic
tendencies of the surfactant. HLB values will depend on the ratio of these properties. These
values vary from 0 to 20. Radia emulsifiers with low HLB, such as sorbitan esters, will behave
as w/o emulsifiers. On the opposite, ethoxylated sorbitan esters, polysorbates, will behave
as o/w emulsifiers. In general, emulsifier systems show better results than single emulsifiers.
Resulting HLB of the blend can be calculated from the sum of the emulsifier percentages
involved. As an example, sorbitan esters will be added to polysorbate based o/w emulsions to
stabilize creams and lotions.

23

PEG esters result from the esterification of polyethylene glycols with fatty acids. The processing
conditions and the raw materials selected allow to obtain emulsifiers with a wide range of
HLB values. Besides their emulsifying properties, PEG-10 dioleate, as an example, will be used
in bath oils to help forming a continuous film on the water; PEG-10 stearate in cream shampoos to lend opacity and body, Polyglycerol esters are recommended as w/o emulsifiers.

stabilizers

Radiasurf and Radiamuls monoglycerides are auxiliary emulsifiers in many creams and
lotions. They increase product stability and prevent coalescence and creaming. They also
impart body, opacity, emolliency, smoothness to w/o and o/w emulsions. Radiamuls 2901
is a more powerful w/o emulsifier than the other monoglycerides. Radiamuls 2902 and
Radiasurf 7318 will act as superfatting agents in shower and bath products.

Isostearic acid is derived from natural oils and differentiated from many other branched fatty
acids by its methyl-branching. These kind of methyl-branched fatty acids and alcohols are often
found in nature as protection for aquatic birds whom use these waxes to keep the feathers in
optimal condition and be protected against climatic conditions. The branched isostearic esters
are known as liquid lipids and are widely used in cosmetic and personal wash applications where
they provide good spreading, non-tacky and pleasant skin feel. An important advantage of using
the isostearic acid and derivatives over the corresponding oleic acid and derivatives is the low
iodine value, due to the absence of the unsaturation. This guarantees oxidative stability and thus
the usage in eg perfume and preservative free systems without concern for rancidity.
