Hydramol™ 

Amidex™ C-CM surfactant is a concentrated and self-preserving liquid version of Cocamide MEA. It combines the foam-boosting and foam stabilizing properties of betaine in a single, easy-to-handle blend. This surfactant offers excellent viscosity-building properties when used with anionics and is particularly well-suited for bath and shower products where stable foam, good wetting, and gentle cleansing are desired. The ratio of amides to betaines is approximately 1:4 on a % solids basis.

Amidex™ C-CM surfactant

Schercemol™ 105 ester is an excellent emollient used in sun care applications to reduce greasiness and as a solvent for solid UV absorbers. It provides a soft skin feel, high spreadability, and high slip, making it suitable for light creams and lotions and as a replacement for cyclomethicone in various formulations.

Schercemol™ 105 ester

Silsense® DW-18 Silicone is a 100% active dimethicone copolyol ester. It is a water-dispersible liquid wax ester created by the reaction of isostearic acid with an alkyloxy-modified polydimethylsiloxane. SilSense DW-18 silicone is an easy-to-formulate product that may be used to impart the conditioning benefits of silicone to personal care products without contributing to the greasiness or buildup that is normally associated with water-insoluble silicone fluids.

Silsense™ DW-18 Silicone

Sensomer™ 10M Polymer is a polyquaternium-10 conditioning polymer optimized to work in combination with Merquat™ polymers. This highly compatible cationic conditioner is useful in a broad range of hair care, skin care, bath, and shower products. It has a high molecular weight of PQ-10 that improves clarity and compatibility.

Sensomer™ 10M Polymer

Carbopol® Silk 100 polymer is a crosslinked polyacrylic acid polymerized in a toxicologically preferred cosolvent system. It provides excellent suspending capability and stabilizes insoluble conditioning agents commonly used in 2-in-1 shampoos. At low concentrations, it offers excellent flow properties and exhibits synergistic behavior with salt. Designed to optimize product performance at the lowest possible cost, Carbopol® Silk 100 polymer allows for a reduction in surfactant levels and conditioning agents. It also enables the incorporation of non-silicone-based conditioning ingredients, particularly natural oils.

Carbopol® Silk 100 polymer

Merquat™ 550PR polymer is a low-acrylamide, non-paraben, aqueous, cationic copolymer that enhances compatibility and clarity in anionic surfactant systems. It is highly substantive and recommended for improving the wet and dry properties of hair care products, as well as enhancing the sensory feel of skin care, bath, and shower products. It provides superior conditioning within the PQ-7 family.

Merquat™ 550PR polymer

Ultrabee™ WD silicone is a 100% active dimethicone copolyol ester that combines the natural conditioning properties of NF grade white beeswax with the substantivity and surface-active benefits of dimethicone copolyol. It is a nonionic, water-dispersible wax ester that features a light color and low odor. Ultrabee WD silicone is easily incorporated into hair and skin care systems and may be used to impart the conditioning benefits of silicone to products without contributing to the greasiness and buildup that can be associated with silicone fluid. Ultrabee WD silicone is recommended in products including aftershave balms, mild cleansers, makeup removers, creams, and lotions.

Ultrabee™ WD silicone

Quatrex™ S conditioning agent is a 26% solids, soybean oil-derived, liquid cationic surfactant exhibiting excellent substantivity and conditioning properties. Its anionic compatibility is ideal for formulating true conditioning shampoos. Its superior solubility properties enable many formulation possibilities in sprays, mousses, setting gels, and conditioners.

Quatrex™ S conditioning agent

Chembetaine™ CGF surfactant is a glycerin-free surfactant derived from coconut fatty acids. It is a high purity, low color ingredient that exhibits excellent foam and viscosity-building properties. Similar to Chembetaine™ CAD, it also synergistically provides mildness. This surfactant is well-suited for use in shampoos, facial cleansers, bubble baths, and bath gels.
