Personal Care Ingredients

STEPANOL CFAS-70 is an anionic surfactant which can be used in laundry and cleaning applications for dishwashing liquids and liquid/powder laundry detergents. It is also used in shampoos, body washes, liquid hand soaps, facial cleaners and bath products.

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.

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.

PLASDONE™ S-630 POLYMER is a pharmaceutical oral care polymer which has excellent bioadhesion properties and is a tougher, more flexible film former than PVP. Plasdone™ S-630 VP/VA copolymer acts as a tablet binder in denture cleanser tablets.
