Principal Uses
  • For hair conditioners, AminoSensyl™ is the primary active conditioning agent, enabling both excellent performance and all-natural claims.

Instruction for Use
  • Additional fatty alcohol can be added to enhance structure. AminoSensyl™ may be incompatible with certain anionic thickeners.
  • The inherent pH of AminoSensyl™ is 3.5. Formulations containing AminoSensyl™ may require an upward adjustment of pH to a level suitable for hair and skin products. Calcium Gluconate or Sodium Gluconate are recommended neutralizing agents for the best long term pH stability.
