Abstract
An anionic surface active agent such as the monoglyceride of succinic acid is incorporated into an aqueous solution of a fatty ester of sucrose to prepare an aqueous solution of a fatty ester of sucrose having a reduced viscosity. A process for reducing the viscosity of an aqueous solution of a fatty ester of sucrose is disclosed, which comprises incorporating an anionic surface active agent in an aqueous solution containing from 8 to 50% by weight of a fatty ester of sucrose having an HLB of from 5 to 20 in an amount of from 1 to 50 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the fatty ester of sucrose. A novel process is also provided, which comprises the use of an aqueous solution of a fatty ester of sucrose having a viscosity thus reduced as an emulsifying agent for dispersing a sparingly water- soluble particulate inorganic compound or cosmetic material therein.
