Polyacrylate-2 Crosspolymer Fixate
Polyacrylate-2 Crosspolymer Fixate, a branched acrylate copolymer, is a specialized ingredient used in cosmetic and personal care formulations. Here's an overview of its characteristics and benefits:
Description:
- Chemical Structure: A branched acrylate copolymer composed of 1-4 alkyl (meth) acrylate, methacrylic acid, and a proprietary mix containing silicone side chains and hydrophobic chains.
- Composition: Features soft, hydrophobic domains randomly combined with hard, hydrophilic domains.
- Functionality: Forms the backbone of the copolymer, offering a balance of properties.
Benefits:
- Enhanced Texture: Contributes to the improved texture and feel of cosmetic products.
- Balanced Properties: Offers an optimized balance of hydrophobic (water-repellent) and hydrophilic (water-attracting) properties.
- Stabilizing Agent: Acts as a stabilizer in formulations, maintaining product consistency and effectiveness.
