AquaStyle™ SH-100 polymer has been specifically designed to provide long-lasting styles from crystal clear gels. As seen above, 1% solids AquaStyle SH-100 polymer when formulated with 0.6% Carbomer results in crystal clear gels.
Ashland's encapsulation technologies have long been associated with providing customized capsules and beads into a wide variety of different products from body wash to metal polish.
Ashland™ brings an enduring dimension to hair repair and conditioning with the introduction of N-DurHance™ A-1000 conditioning polymer.
ChemPoint® offers a wide variety of water-resistant polymers from Ashland™ that fit just about every formulation requirement. These polymers can be combined or used alone to maximize performance with a non-greasy and low- to no-tack feel.
Due to its unique composition, Blumilight™ is associated with a better resistance to blue light stress, compared to conventional cocoa polyphenols, in vitro. By limiting the visible effects of blue light pollution on skin, Blumilight™ addresses the changing lifestyles of consumers in a hyper-connected world.
ChromoHance™ 113 shields color-treated hair from surfactant stripping by forming a hydrophobic surface on each strand, reducing water absorption during washing and slowing the fading process.
Based on the protective and regenerative properties of giant kelp, SeaStem™ has been tested to counteract the noxious effect of pollution (diesel ultrafine particles) on epidermal stem cells and preserve the skin’s self-regenerating & protection properties.
Benecel™ polymer products help to reduce the irritation potential of surfactant systems used for hair and skin formulations. A material or formulation with a zeta potential of zero should be non-irritating to the skin. The goal is to move the base surfactant system as close to zero as possible to reduce the irritation potential.
