cosmetic cream, walnut oil, 4-aminobenzoic acid, Juglans regia L.Abstract
The aim of the study was obtaining the cosmetic cream containing walnut oil, defatted walnut seeds and gelling agents like beeswax and witepsol. The walnut oil and defatted walnut seeds were received by extraction method using chloroform: methanol (1:1), (v/v). Then the physical and chemical properties of the cream were investigated. The consistency, drop point and flow temperature, the spreadability and rheological properties in the temperature range 22°C -50°C were estimated. The release of the model substance, 4-aminobenzoic acid, in the same range of temperatures, was defined as well. Previously, no studies had been conducted, in which the physicochemical properties of semisolid preparations with walnut oil and defatted walnut seeds would be estimated.
