Blue Sky Thinking: Star Polymer Aligns Clarity with Viscosity for High-perfume Surfactant Systems
Sep 3, 2017 | Samuel Lin, Ph.D., and Xu Qin, Ph.D., Applechem Inc., Parsippany, NJ, USA
Building viscosity and clarity in surfactant systems, especially those that are sulfate-free and have high fragrance loads, is challenging. In response, a new six-armed nonionic associative thickener was developed that effectively bridges many small micelles to create larger, bridged structures that improve viscosity, while retaining clarity.
Patent Pick: Starch Breakdown Builds Viscosity

We could all use a little bonding time to stabilize the formula for happiness in life. And similar to human connections, in personal care, the more natural the bonding, the better. Enter: Carboxymethyl cellulose.
Binding Water in 3D: Cellulose Networks for Texture and Sensory Benefits
Jun 2, 2017 | Rebecca Blell, Ph.D., and Reinert Fure, Ph.D., Borregaard AS, Sarpsborg, Norway; Rainer Kroepke, Cosmacon GmbH, Schenefeld, Germany
This article explores a natural raw material sustainably produced from cellulose that improves rheological and sensory properties in cosmetic products. Here, it is tested for matte effects in a face cream, for hair conditioning to reduce combing forces, and for viscosity recovery in sunscreen sprays.

Balancing Texture with Electrolyte Resistance for Improved Thickening
Feb 26, 2015 | Ryosuke Murakami, Yusuke Nishikawa and Yuichiro Morimitsu, Sumitomo Seika Chemicals Co., Ltd.
Described here are two acrylic rheology modifiers for novel thickening properties in formulations. A pre-neutralized carbomer is shown to impart a lighter, smoother texture than traditional carbomer while increasing process flexibility. In addition, a new associative acrylate/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer exhibits thickening in high electrolyte media, acts synergistically with surfactants, and facilitates the dispersion of fillers.

A Comprehensive Approach to Replacing DEA in Formulations
Dec 17, 2013
Once California added diethanolamine to the list of regulated chemicals in personal care formulations under Proposition 65, chemists immediately sought out surfactants that were free of DEA. Here is presented a roadmap for identifying the right solution to replace DEA-containing surfactants in personal care products.
