Endicare® ETP-505

Acrylamide/Sodium Acrylate Copolymer (and) Mineral Oil (and) Trideceth-6. Endicare® ETP-505 by Coast Southwest acts as an emulsifying, thickening and stabilizing agent designed for cold process oil-in-water emulsions. It is a high quality, high purity anionic acrylic copolymer dispersed in USP white mineral oil. This polymer dispersion facilitates the formulation of opaque gels and emulsions at room temperature without requiring neutralization and is compatible with a wide range of materials including cationic compounds. As with most polymers, the thickening performance of this product is reduced by the presence of electrolytes, an issue easily offset at slightly higher concentrations. Endicare® ETP-505 delivers formulations for skin care and hair care products with very good cosmetic features. The after-feel is non-greasy and non-sticky. It makes the rub-in and spreadability of highly thick and compact creams easier and more uniform.
