Products in Cosmetic Ingredients: Film Forming

iMol CTV: It is an thickner, emollient and solubilizant agent for the manufacture of cosmetic and pharmaceutical products that favors the active penetration. iMol CTV is an ester with an oily sensory, good compatibility with the epidermis and stands as an excellent adjuvant to lipidic - soluble substances thanks to its solubilizing power and penetration through the epidermis. As indicated for cosmetics, pharmaceutical and dermatological products. In the pharmaceutical area there is a scope for the iMol CTV, according to its chemical inertness in the presence of numerous substances/ingredients, and due to its compatibility. It is indicated for creams against sunburns and skin creams that contain dexamethasone. Due to the low level of iodine, iMol CTV has a high stability to selfoxidation forming in a factor of stability in emulsions where it’s used. When used in lipsticks, iMol CTV promotes uniform dispersion of pigments and the formation of a film more perfect in the lips. iMol CTV is soluble in a big variety of oils (vegetable, mineral), waxes, fatty alcohol, fatty acids and essential oils. iMol CTV presents medium power of dispersibility and it get turbid at temperatures below - 10°C. iMol CTV is indicated for facial care products, for baby care, deodorants, antiperspirants, hair masks, shaving products, soap bar, creams and lotions.
