Abstract
The present invention relates to the use of fatty alcohol based compositions comprising: 60 to 90% by weight of at least one fatty alcohol having from 12 to 22 carbon atoms, preferably from 16 to 18 carbon atoms, 10 to 40% by weight of an alkylpolyoside, preferably an alkylpolyoside of which the alkyl part is identical to that of the fatty alcohol, and, if appropriate, 0.5 to 5% of polyoside, for preparing emulsions. The invention finds an application in particular for preparing emulsions in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical fields.

A method for preparing an emulsion comprising:
- a) a first step of separately forming a self-emulsifiable composition as a reaction product by reacting, in acid medium, at least one fatty alcohol having from 12 to 22 carbon atoms with at least one ose selected from the group consisting of glucose, dextrose, saccharose, fructose, galactose, maltose, maltotriose, lactose, cellobiose, mannose, ribose, dextrane, talose, allose, xylose, levoglucosane, cellulose and starch in reaction conditions such that the reaction product consists essentially of 60 to 90% by weight of at least one fatty alcohol having from 12 to 22 carbon atoms, 10 to 40% by weight of an alkylpolyoside of which the alkyl part is identical to that of the fatty alcohol, and from 0 to 5% by weight of polyoside and such that the composition can form a stable emulsion merely by dispersion of a sufficient quantity of the composition at a temperature between about 50 and 80 degrees C. in an aqueous phase;
- and
- b) a subsequent step of dispersing the composition obtained in step a at said temperature in the aqueous phase in a sufficient quantity to form a stable emulsion.
