HS Code | 3208100000 |
INCI | Acrylates octylacrylamide copolymer |
Manufacture | Acrylate copolymer is produced by polymerization of octylacrylamide and one or more monomers consisting of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid. |
Preservation | Preservative-free |
Purity Grade | No purity grade applicable |
Raw Material Source | Acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, and octylacrylamide |
Uses | 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. |
