ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to gelled compositions formed through the introduction of specific solvents to compositions comprising 2,4-O-(3,4-dimethylbenzylidene)-D-sorbitol. Such compositions provide excellent gelling for any number of potential applications, particularly where translucent gels are desired. In general, these compositions are formed by introducing heated solvents to the specific monobenzylidene sorbitol present in its solid form. The monobenzylidene sorbitol is preferably added in very low amounts to the target solvents in order to generate the desired gelling effect. A method of producing such gelled compositions is also provided.
