Personal Care Ingredients

PVP K-12 SOLUTION is a hygroscopic, amorphous polymer supplied as a clear aqueous solution. It can be plasticized with water and most common organic plasticizers. It is considered to be physiologically inert. This product is cross-linkable to a water insoluble, swellable material either in the course of vinylpyrrolidone polymerization, by addition of an appropriate multifunctional comonomer or by post-reaction, typically through hydrogen abstraction chemistry. 

SURFADONE™ LP-300 WETTING AGENT is sparingly soluble in water (0.002 weight percent) and soluble in most organic solvents. It is a low-foaming, nonionic surfactant with an HLB of 3 and has no critical micelle concentration (CMC). Like its lower homolog, Surfadone™ LP-300 wetting agent interacts with anionic surfactants, forming mixed micelles, which greatly enhances its solubility, resulting in a synergistic surface tension reduction and wetting enhancement. Appropriate combinations of Surfadone™ LP-300 wetting agent and anionic surfactants produce viscous solutions and gels.

KLUCEL™ HPC is a nonionic water-soluble cellulose ether with unique combination of properties, It is soluble in cold-water and polar organic solvents, surface active, and forms films of exceptional flexibility without addition of plasticizers.

JAYPOL 213 is a white, cationic liquid dispersion polymer with rheology enhancement for liquid fabric softener. It allows manufacturers to “dial-in” rich, thick formulation viscosity with ease and efficiency. Just as importantly, this product is shear-thinning, providing the means for consumer-desirable pouring attributes and efficient delivery into the wash drum during the final rinse cycle.
