LUBRAJEL BA hydrogel is a clathrate of glyceryl acrylate and glyceryl polyacrylate that encloses water molecules via hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals forces. As supplied, this product contains about 50 weight % water. Since it binds moisture and is a highly viscous gel, Lubrajel™ BA hydrogel is an ideal ingredient to provide moisture to the mouth.

PEROXYDONE K-30 complex by Ashland Specialty Chemical acts as a whitening agent. It is a highly stable, solid complex of hydrogen peroxide with pharmaceutical-grade polyvinylpyrrolidone. It is stable in a wide range of solvents and provide excellent substantivity, bioadhesion, film-forming and formulation thickening. It releases hydrogen peroxide on contact with water or saliva, resulting in brighter and whiter teeth.

POLYPLASDONE™ XL by Ashland Specialty Chemical acts as a rheology modifier and tablet disintegrant. It is a non-ionic, water-insoluble but swellable crosslinked PVP homopolymer. Due to porous particle morphology, it acts as super disintegrants, providing rapid disintegration to denture-cleaning tablets.

PLASDON K29/32 polymer by Ashland Specialty Chemical acts as a rheology modifier. It is a stable, water-soluble polyvinylpyrrolidone that meets U.S., European and Japanese pharmacopoeia specifications for Povidone. It forms complexes with catechins, just as it does with many other compounds that cause discoloration of teeth. The polymer can be effectively used to bind and remove stains through hydrogen bonding with chemical compounds.
