Acrylates/Vinyl Neodecanoate Crosspolymer is a high-performance alkali-swellable anionic acrylic polymer emulsion (ASE) designed to deliver efficient thickening, stabilization, and suspension in a wide range of personal care formulations.
This liquid, cold-processable rheology modifier thickens instantly upon neutralization, providing ease of formulation, excellent viscosity stability, and smooth flow properties.
It is especially effective in highly alkaline systems and compatible with polar solvents, surfactants, and suspended particles, allowing formulators to create clear, stable, and aesthetically pleasing products.
ACULYN™ 38 Polymer enables the production of spreadable, non-greasy, and mild lotions, gels, and cleansers with excellent clarity, stability, and sensory feel.
Applications
• Skin care (creams, lotions, gels)
• Hair care (shampoos, conditioners, and treatments)
• Facial cleansers and body washes
• Toothpastes and oral care gels
• Pharmaceutical and cosmetic emulsions
• Personal hygiene and cleansing systems
