Personal Care Ingredients

GANTREZ™ S-97 BF POLYMER is a methyl vinyl ether/maleic anhydride copolymers produced by hydrolysis of (polymethylvinylether/maleic anhydride) copolymer. The free acid forms are water-soluble, giving clear and tacky films. Solution rheology can be modified by the addition of salts and bases. Gantrez polymers act as highly effective chelating agents for iron, magnesium, zinc and calcium ions; are excellent film formers and enhance hydrophilicity of surfaces. In hard surface cleaners, Gantrez S-97 polymer provides anti-fog properties and promotes long-lasting streak-free surfaces.

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. 

LATHANOL LAL POWDER is a mild anionic surfactant providing foaming, wetting and emulsification. It can be used in bubble baths, shampoos, cleansing creams.

NACCONOL 90G is an anionic surfactant providing superior detergency, foaming, wetting and emulsification properties. It is used in household, institutional and industrial detergents, and in construction products such as concrete admixtures, firefighting foams and additives for dust control. This product meets the U.S. EPA Safer Choice Program's surfactant screen and is listed on www.cleangredients.org.
