N-HANCE HPCG 1000 Hydroxypropyl Guar by Ashland Specialty Chemical is a cationic, polymeric thickener and conditioning agent. it delivers high level of lubricity, which makes it particularly suitable for applications requiring slip. 

N-HANCE BF13 Cationic Guar by Ashland Specialty Chemical acts as a thickener and conditioning agent. This quaternary polymer is a medium-cationic-substitution, high-molecular-weight polymer. It is boron-free which differentiates it from typical cationic guars. It is substantive to anionic surfaces such as skin and hair. Upon dilution of the surfactants with water, the cationic guar will complex with the anionic surfactants. The complex will deposit cosmetically effective levels of ingredients such as silicone or emollient oils onto hair and skin.

N-HANCE SP-100 Conditioning Polymer is a new polymer, specifically designed for use in personal care applications. It is typically used as a substantive conditioning polymer in rinse-off surfactant systems, such as shampoos, to reduce tangling and improve wet and dry comb properties of hair after shampooing. It is especially useful for delivering a highly conditioned feel to wet and dry hair. This product can also be added to bath and shower gels to improve skin feel after bathing or showering.

N-HANCE CG 17 Cationic Guar is a quaternary polymer that provides both conditioning and viscosity build. It is similar to CG13 but has a very high cationic charge, very heavy conditioning, and very high deposition of silicones, natural oils, and anti-dandruff actives.
