Allyl Methacrylates Crosspolymer is a synthetic porous polymer derived from the suspension polymerization method, similar to that used to make latex paints. It forms spherical particles with a median size of about 40 μm.
Delivery vehicle
Delivery systems play an increasingly important role in developing advanced formulations for the personal care market. While pharmaceutical chemists have long searched for delivery vehicles that give sustained release, cosmetic chemists have turned to delivery systems more recently as a means of sustaining delivery and improving the stability of actives.
Newer delivery vehicles provide a pathway to easing the formulation of sensitive ingredients and enhancing the finished product's cosmetic elegance.
Different delivery systems and vehicles, such as liposomes, microencapsulation, and microparticle technologies, have been explored and commercialized. Each of these systems has its strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, it is difficult for any one delivery system to provide the proper set of universal properties that can be used across all types of formulations and with all classes of actives.
Di-PPG-3 Myristyl Ether Adipate is a transparent liquid polymer and a low-viscosity emollient with an ESSF (Emollient Skin Spreading Factor) value of 3.8. It promotes the targeted delivery of actives and pigments.
Ethyl oleate is the ester of ethanol and oleic acid (C18:1), a vegetable-based, non-animal origin ingredient that has applications in many skincare and pharmaceutical formulas and offers multiple functional benefits.
Oleic acid is a naturally occurring fatty acid commonly found in vegetable and animal fats.
Galactomannans from Caesalpinia Spinosa, in particular, have a 3:1 mannose:galactose ratio (Man:Gal) and relatively regular distribution of galactose along the main chain.
