Pemulen™ Polymers™

Lubrizol Life Science - Beauty Brand

Products:3

High Molecular Weight, Cross-linked Copolymers containing both hydrophobic and hydrophilic portions within the molecule.

The hydrophobic portion of the polymer adsorbs at the oil phase whereas the hydrophilic portion swells in the water forming a gel network around the oil droplets to provide exceptional emulsion stability.

Stable oil-in-water emulsions with no or low levels of co-surfactant
Efficient suspension and stabilization of insoluble materials and particles
These polymers provide shear thinning rheology which enables easy pumping and spraying of finished products
Typical uses include polishes and automotive care products

Pemulen™ Polymers™ TR-1 polymer

INCI Name:Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
Functions:Viscosity Modifier, Emulsifier, Emulsifier (O/W), Thickener
Labeling Claims:Ethoxylates-free, Sustainable, Halal, TSE-free, Ulta Beauty's Conscious Beauty, Credo Clean Standard, PEG-free, GMO-free
Certifications & Compliance:Halal, CFDA Compliant (China)

Pemulen™ TR-1 polymer is a high-molecular-weight, crosslinked copolymer used as a polymeric emulsifier in oil-in-water emulsions. It is non-ethoxylated and designed to create stable and mild emulsions at low usage levels. Pemulen™ TR-1 polymer is suitable for use in various skin care formulations, providing thickening properties for higher-viscosity emulsions.

Pemulen™ Polymers™ TR-2 polymeric emulsifier

INCI Name:Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
Functions:Viscosity Modifier, Emulsifier, Emulsifier (O/W), Thickener
Labeling Claims:Ethoxylates-free, Sustainable, Halal, TSE-free, Ulta Beauty's Conscious Beauty, Credo Clean Standard, PEG-free, GMO-free
Certifications & Compliance:Halal, CFDA Compliant (China)

Pemulen™ TR-2 polymeric emulsifier is a similar high-molecular-weight, crosslinked copolymer to Pemulen™ TR-1. It is also designed to create stable and mild oil-in-water emulsions at low usage levels. However, it provides low-viscosity emulsions, particularly suitable for skin care applications using a spray mechanism.

Pemulen™ Polymers™ EZ-4U Polymer

INCI Name:Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
Functions:Sensory Additive, Viscosity Modifier, Emulsifier, Suspending Agent, Emulsion Stabilizer, Thickener, Stabilizer
Labeling Claims:Ethoxylates-free, Sustainable, Halal, Ulta Beauty's Conscious Beauty, Sulfate-free, Credo Clean Standard
Certifications & Compliance:Halal, CFDA Compliant (China)

Pemulen™ Polymers™ EZ-4U Polymer is a polymeric emulsifier that minimizes skin care formulation constraints through simpler processing and greater formulation flexibility in a cost-efficient manner while offering robust emulsion stabilization, freedom from HLB constraints, stability over a wide pH range, and flexibility for cold or hot processability, all at low use levels. It allows the development of a wide variety of textures, from a shiny, smooth cream to thin, sprayable lotions. It provides a light sensorial profile and robustness to stabilize sophisticated ingredients, such as challenging oil systems, actives, perfumes, UV absorbers, film formers, and optical and sensory enhancers.
