BASF’s Plantasil® 4V is an economical, tailor-made compound for a strong hair-conditioning effect in shampoos. It provides a significant improvement on wet combing and sensorial performance on different hair types equivalent to those of silicone-containing benchmarks. Even at higher levels of hair damage, Plantasil 4V reduces combing force significantly. These effective properties can also be demonstrated at low surfactant levels.
