Molecular Structure
Product Introduction
Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, SanCarbopol 2020 is a crosslinked copolymer of polyacrylic acid, that is polymerized in a toxicologically-preferred cosolvent system. SanCarbopol 2020 has the ability to disperse quickly without high-speed agitation and it makes extremely easy to use for efficient processing. It is an excellent rheology modifier for an application that require high resistance to dissolved electrolytes and forms clear gels or hydro-alcoholic gels and creams.In short,Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer is a multifunctional cosmetic ingredient that plays an important role in improving product texture, stability, and usability.

Application |
Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer is a widely used ingredient in cosmetics and personal care products,such as sunscreens, moisturizing creams/lotions, anti-aging essences, eye creams, exfoliating/scrubbing products, facial cleansers, hair dyes, hair gels, etc. |
Functions and effects
Thickening effect:This is one of its main functions. It can significantly increase the viscosity of products and give products a more suitable texture and usability.
Emulsifying stability: Because its molecular structure has both hydrophilic and lipophilic parts, it has good emulsifying stability. It can make the water phase and oil phase mix better together to form a stable emulsion or gel system and prevent the product from stratification and precipitation.
Film-forming property: It can form a uniform film on the skin or hair surface, which can play a role in protection and moisturization. This film can reduce the evaporation of skin moisture, maintain the moisture content of the skin, and also resist the damage of the external environment to the skin.
Safety
Generally speaking, the use of Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer in cosmetics is relatively safe. It will not cause adverse reactions or irritating hazards to most people. However, for some people with sensitive skin, it may cause mild irritation or allergic reactions. If there are symptoms such as redness, itching, and stinging of the skin, stop using it immediately and consult a doctor or professional for advice.
