Acrylates Copolymer is an anionic cross-linked polymer with strong suspending and stabilizing properties. It functions as a suspending agent, viscosity enhancer, hair fixative, and film former. It provides thickening for styling products and suspending properties in surfactant systems. Additionally, it enables the production of clear products with a high surfactant content. It also eliminates the need for heating or specialized equipment to thicken products, allowing for the creation of highly viscous formulations. This polymer is ideal for gels, creams, waxes, shampoos, and shower gels.
Application: Low pH formulations, clear products, clear shampoos and bath products, and pearlized cleansing agents.
