Self emulsifying wax is applied in manufacturing cosmetics, pharmaceutical cream, lotions, ointments etc. The molecular action of this is having properties to bind water and oil to form a jelly like smooth emulsion. The water is known as hydrophobic or polarized characteristics and would like to bind with hydrophilic material or non-polar substances. Eg. The hydrophobic property own by olive oil. But it contains both the characteristics of hydrophilic and hydrophobic. This is the reason that some of the portion of self emulsifying wax was attracting the oil and some of the portion binding with water to create a spongy formation mixed with oil and water in cosmetic wax.
