| Description: | This polymer is a hydrophobic high molecular weight carboxylated acrylic copolymer. Because acrylate copolymer is anionic, compatibility must be evaluated when formulating with cationic Raw Materials & Cosmetic Ingredients. |
| Benefits: | Excellent film forming polymer that adds water-resistance to creams, sunscreen and mascaraProvides water-proof protection and thickening properties depending on the formulaDue to inherent moisture resistance it can be used in waterproof sunscreens and a variety of protective creams and lotions |
| Use: | Can be mixed into the hot oil phase of formulation, mixes also with glycerin, propylene glycol, alcohol or hot water that has been neutralized (eg. water, TEA 0.5%, 2% acrylates copolymer). Needs to be sprinkled into the solution and well mixed. Prior to adding acrylate copolymer, all oil phase Raw Materials & Cosmetic Ingredients should also be combined and heated to 80°C/176°F. Acrylate copolymer should then be slowly sifted in using good agitation and mixed for one half hour. Use levels: 2-7%. For external use only. |
| Applications: | Color cosmetics, sun & skin protection, hair care products, shaving creams, moisturizers. |
