Introduction
Acrylates/Steareth-20 Methacrylate Crosspolymer is a high-efficiency rheology modifier and stabilizer designed to provide luxurious texture, enhanced viscosity, and excellent stability in a wide range of personal care formulations.
It forms clear, smooth gels and improves the sensory feel of emulsions and surfactant systems. The Steareth-20 Methacrylate modification allows compatibility with oils, silicones, and emollients, making it ideal for creams, lotions, and cleansing products that require a silky, non-tacky finish.
This polymer also imparts shear-thinning behavior, ensuring formulations are rich and stable in packaging, yet spread easily upon application, delivering a premium skin feel and long-lasting stability.
