Selvol™ Ultalux AD Product InformationAdvanced Adhesive and Film Forming Properties for Personal Care FormulationsSelvol™ Ultalux AD PVOH copolymer (INCI: Vinyl Amine/Vinyl Alcohol Copolymer) is an advanced adhesion promoter and film former applicable in skin care, color cosmetics, hair and rinse-off systems. Incorporation of the amine functional group within the Ultalux AD polymer imparts advanced surface activity with pH-targeted properties. Amine functional copolymers exhibit superior strength and adhesion to a range of surfaces including skin when compared with related anionic or nonionic polymers. This cosmetic-grade polyvinyl alcohol copolymer lends functionality to a range of personal care formulations, imparting viscosity and emulsion stability control and solubility modification.Selvol™ Ultalux AD Vinyl Amine/Vinyl Alcohol Copolymer provides a balance of adhesion functionality and film-forming performance in formulations such as masks and peels, anti-aging creams and lotions and pore strips. As part of the Ultalux range of PVOH and PVOH derivatives, Ultalux AD is tested for high quality and purity and is verified as non-irritating on skin.Available in five grades, the Ultalux range offers a wide spectrum of performance attributes. The Sekisui Selvol™ Ultalux line includes highly functional PVOH copolymer grades, SC and AD. The new offerings provide excellent adhesion, lower viscosity and good tensile strength in film formation. Testing shows that Ultalux SC achieves a 15% improvement in hydration in a facial mask formulation compared with one using a conventional PVOH polymer.Selvol™ Ultalux AD FunctionsAdhesion promoterFilm formerTighteningReaction intermediantApplications of Selvol™ Ultalux AD in Personal Care FormulationsThis polyvinyl alcohol copolymer can be used in brow makeup, anti-aging products, eyelash glues, eye shadow, facial masks and peels and pore strips.Selvol™ Ultalux AD Properties1.
