Solvent
Description of Solvent: a problem associated with a variety of products is the insolubility of certain ingredients in water. This makes it difficult to produce and package, as it is harder to control the desired concentrations. Instead of adding solubilizing agents to the formulation, solvents can be a good way to overcome this problem. A solvent is a substance that becomes a solution by dissolving a liquid or solid. In other words, a solvent is a dissolving agent and is the liquid portion of a solution. Solvents are mainly liquid, however solvents can also be a solid or gas. Solvents are technically anything that dissolves something else, but at IngreCore we refer to solvents as liquids that are not water that are used to dissolve other ingredients. While solvents play a critical role in some production processes, they are also frequently used in cleaning products and some personal care products (like Skin Toners and Make-up Removers or ethanol in Perfumes or ethanol or isopropanol in Hand Sanitizers).
