INCI NAME |
Acrylates octylacrylamide copolymer |
|
|
|
|
DEFINITION |
This polymer is a hydrophobic high molecular weight carboxylated acrylic copolymer. Because the polymer is inherently moisture resistant, it can be used in waterproof sunscreens as well as a variety of protective creams and lotions. Because acrylate copolymer is anionic, compatibility must be evaluated when formulating with cationic ingredients. Fine white powder. |

USAGE |
Can be mixed into the hot oil phase of formulation, mixes also with glycerin, propylene glycol, alcohol or hot water that has been neutralized (eg. water, TEA 0.5%, 2% acrylates copolymer). Needs to be sprinkled into the solution and well mixed. Prior to adding acrylate copolymer, all oil phase ingredients should also be combined and heated to 80°C/176°F. Acrylate copolymer should then be slowly sifted in using good agitation and mixed for one half hour. Use levels: 2-7%. For external use only. Stable when kept in a closed container at a cool & dry place. |
