VA/Crotonates Copolymer is a vinyl acetate and crotonic acid copolymer, an anionic film-forming agent for hair-setting applications. It is typically used in aerosol and pump sprays, lotions, and foam hair fixatives. It is distributed as transparent, fine beads with a weak characteristic odor.
Antistatic
Electrostatic charges on the skin generated by traction with the skin of some natural and synthetic clothing materials, such as polyester, nylon, silk, and wool, can cause issues when applying makeup and attract dust particles, microfibrils, and bacteria from the air. Combing also generates an electrostatic charge, making hair setting difficult.
Antistatic agents or additives are ingredients incorporated into personal care products to help reduce those adverse effects. There are two major types of antistatic ingredients.
The first type includes nonionic film-forming ionic, cationic salts, and anionic acids that reduce traction and preclude the electron "stealing" (charging) ability of clothing materials and hairbrushes.
The second type of antistatics helps to dissipate electrical charge from the skin and hair surface thanks to their conductivity or humectant action. Humectants, including NMFs (natural moisturizing factors), attract water molecules, increasing skin's conductivity.VA/Crotonates/Vinyl Neodecanoate Copolymer is a copolymer of vinyl acetate, crotonic acid, and vinyl neodecanoate, an anionic film-forming polymer for hair setting. It is a fine transparent beads with a slight, characteristic odor.
Vitamin B5 is used as a wound-healing accelerator and a moisturizer. It widely used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.
