Eastman AQ™ 48 Ultra Polymer
Markets: Color Cosmetics, Hair Care, Other Printing Applications
Technologies: Film Formers, Other Functional Additives, Dispersing & Wetting Additives
Chemical Family: Polyesters
INCI Names: Polyester-5
Eastman AQ™ 48 Ultra polymer is a sulfopolyester that disperses directly in a mixture of ethanol and water at room temperature or in warm water without the assistance of surfactants or other additives. Low-viscosity aqueous dispersions can be prepared at concentrations up to 30% polymer solids. The aqueous or hydroalcoholic dispersions have water-like viscosity at concentrations up to about 20% polymer. AQ polymers aid the dispersion of hydrophobic ingredients in water-based formulations and films formed from the dispersions are clear and glossy at room temperature. AQ 48 Ultra polymer was designed specifically for use as a hair fixative in 55% VOC hairspray. Therefore, it is more compatible with higher levels of alcohol than Eastman AQ™ 38S or 55S, and has good wash out with shampooing. AQ 48 polymer provides excellent hold at high humidity in aerosol and pump hairsprays, as well as in clear styling gels. Eastman AQ 48 has a Tg (glass transition temperature) of about 48°C. AQ 48 polymer is supplied as pellets.

Eastman AQ™ 38S Polymer
Markets: AP/Deo, Color Cosmetics, Other Beauty & Care
Technologies: Film Formers, Dispersing & Wetting Additives, Polyesters
Chemical Family: Polyesters
INCI Names: Polyester-5
Eastman AQ ™ 38S polymer is a sulfopolyester that disperses directly in hot water without the assistance of amines, cosolvents, surfactants or other additives. AQ 38S polymer aids the dispersion of many hydrophobic ingredients in water-based products and forms clear films at room temperature from aqueous dispersions. Eastman AQ ™polymers differ chiefly in glass transition temperature (Tg) or softening point. As indicated by the number in the product name, Eastman AQ 38S polymer has a Tg of about 38°C. The "S" indicates AQ 38S is supplied as solid pellets. Eastman AQ linear polyesters serve as film formers in numerous cosmetic and personal care applications. Because of its low Tg, Eastman AQ™ 38S forms flexible films on the skin. It imparts a smooth feel to creams, lotions, and sprays and adheres to the skin. Thus, it is useful as a film-former in sunscreen products, providing excellent water resistance. AQ 38 is added to the water phase and aids the emulsification of oil-phase UV absorbers. AQ 38 provides improved coverage for sprayable sunscreens.

Foral
Foral™ 105-E Ster Of Hydrogenated Rosin
Markets: Flexible Packaging Adhesives, Case & Carton Sealing, Case & Carton Sealing
Technologies: Other Resins & Binders
Chemical Family: Alkyds, Rosins
Foral™ 105-E ester of hydrogenated rosin is a pale, thermoplastic ester resin derived from pentaerythritol and a highly stabilized rosin. Like Foral 85-E ester of hydrogenated rosin, which is produced from the same unique oxidation-resistant rosin, Foral 105-E offers advantages as the tackifier or modifier resin in various adhesives and coating compositions. In these applications, both resins exhibit resistance to oxidation and to discoloration caused by heat and aging. Foral 105-E has a substantially higher softening point and is therefore indicated where a harder resin is desired. It is also used in UV cured acrylics to improve adhesion to low surface energy substrates when high tack is not needed.
