The Lubrizol Corporation announced its new polymer technology created for shampoo applications. The Carbopol Silk 100 polymer (INCI: Carbomer) aims to deliver salt-synergistic rheology that provides powerful suspension even at low surfactant levels or in (silicone) oils in hair care products.
Additionally, the Carbopol Silk 100 polymer contributes to hair conditioning performance in applications combined with conditioning polymers and silicones due to the low impact of the polymer on silicone deposition.
The Carbopol Silk 100 enables the development of shampoo formulas that restore smoothness, softness and shine to hair while also providing elements of care for the hair and scalp.
