Description

Acrylamide/Sodium Acryloyldimethyltaurate Copolymer is a high-performance synthetic polymer widely used as a rheology modifier and stabilizer. This copolymer is valued for its exceptional ability to create clear, high-viscosity solutions with excellent salt tolerance and shear-thinning properties. It is a critical ingredient for formulators in the personal care, pharmaceutical, and industrial sectors seeking to enhance texture, stability, and performance. The compound is identified by CAS No. 38193-60-1.

Application

• Hair Care Products: Primary thickener and stabilizer in shampoos, conditioners, and styling gels, providing rich texture and suspension of actives.
• Skin Care & Cosmetics: Used in creams, lotions, sunscreens, and cleansing products to improve viscosity, emulsion stability, and sensory feel.
• Pharmaceutical Topicals: Serves as a gelling agent and stabilizer in gels, creams, and ointments, ensuring consistent drug delivery and formulation integrity.
• Household & Industrial Cleaners: Functions as a rheology modifier in liquid soaps, detergents, and hard surface cleaners to control viscosity and cling.
• Toiletries: Key component in shower gels and liquid hand soaps for creating luxurious, stable lather and body.
