water-based nail polishes. INTERPOLYMER’s aqueous technology eliminates concerns with regard to safety hazards, toxicity and VOC issues currently facing solvent-based nail polishes, and allows the formulator to develop nail polishes compatible with water-based actives. Laboratory testing has shown that formulations containing SYNTRAN®


PC 5620


exhibit quicker drying time and superior wear and hardness compared to competitive water based nail polishes. Moreover INTERPOLYMER’s test formulation provides superior initial gloss compared to water-based and solvent-based benchmarks. Thanks to its unique properties, SYNTRAN®


PC 5620 will give the formulator the ability to develop


safe, eco-friendly, yet effective alternatives to solvent-based nail polishes. INTERPOLYMER Sàrl, Stand X78


Novel functional biopolymers CP Kelco is introducing AquaMAX™ Polyglutamic Acid. AquaMAX is a new family of functional personal care ingredients, based on the natural biopolymer,


gamma-Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA); originally derived from the Japanese soy food natto. AquaMAX represents a new class of nature-based, functional moisturisers that deliver improved moisturisation to the skin. Research also suggests that AquaMAX may affect a number of biological processes in the skin that can contribute to the maintenance of optimal skin health and appearance. AquaMAX products significantly enhance skin moisturisation and contribute to skin health through their unique molecular structures and biochemical effects on a number of important skin constituents. Visit CP Kelco’s stand to learn more about AquaMAX and its entire family of RHEOLOGY Nature Made products.
