Waterproofing Agents

Category overview

Available as clear to slightly viscous liquids or dispersible polymers, waterproofing agents form a hydrophobic barrier. They are used in makeup, sunscreens, and hair styling products to enhance durability.

Popular INCI ingredients in this segment include Trimethylsiloxysilicate and Acrylates Copolymer. Breathable, non-occlusive waterproofing is in demand. Sub-types include flexible film-formers for comfort and rigid polymers for extreme wear. They must meet film-forming safety regulations.
