NATROSOL 250 HHX PHARMA are extra fine grades for easier dispersion which are high efficiency, non-ionic, water soluble polymers used for thickening and rheology control where a glyxol treatment cannot be tolerated.

ISP - STABILEZE QM polymer by Ashland Specialty Chemical acts as a rheology modifier. It is based on methylvinylether/maleic anhydride and delivers exceptional thickening, suspending and stabilizing capability in aqueous and non-aqueous systems, even at low use levels or low pH. It disperses easily in water and forms clear, aqueous gels. Its shear-thinning properties allow strong gels with quick break for processing, spreading and dispensing. Moreover, it formulates into clear products and is effective over wide pH range. It imparts exceptional skin feel and stability to emulsions. It can create sprayable polyelectrolyte matrix when formulated with linear, high molecular weight cationic or pseudocationic polymers. It is compatible with a wide range of ingredients including polyquaterniums and has limited compatibility with salts & some anionic surfactants.

QUINTESCINE IS biofunctional by Ashland Specialty Chemical acts as an anti-aging, anti-stress, antioxidant and protective agent. It is a glutathione-biomimetic antioxidant peptide designed to help preserve against glycation damage. It helps protect skin from environmental stresses and prevents loss of skin resiliency.
