Description

Tea-Diricinoleate/Ipdi Copolymer is a specialized polymeric ester derived from the reaction of triethanolamine (TEA), diricinoleic acid, and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI). This engineered copolymer is valued for its unique combination of film-forming, emulsifying, and rheology-modifying properties, making it a versatile functional additive. It is primarily sought after by formulators in the personal care, cosmetics, and high-performance industrial coating sectors seeking to enhance product texture, stability, and performance.

Application

• Cosmetic & Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a high-efficiency emulsifier, emollient, and film-forming agent in creams, lotions, sunscreens, and color cosmetics to improve skin feel and product longevity.
• Hair Care Products: Used in styling gels, mousses, and conditioners to provide hold, shine, and conditioning benefits without a sticky residue.
• Skin Adhesive & Medical Patches: Serves as a key film-forming polymer in the matrix of dermatological patches and transdermal delivery systems.
• Industrial & Protective Coatings: Imparts flexibility, adhesion, and water resistance in specialty coatings and sealants.
• Rheology Modifier: Helps control the viscosity and flow properties of complex fluid formulations.

Quality Control

Our Tea-Diricinoleate/Ipdi Copolymer is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is analyzed to ensure consistency in composition, viscosity, and functional performance. While typically produced to industrial or cosmetic grade specifications, compliance with relevant guidelines (e.g., ISO 22716, GMP for cosmetics) is maintained. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and physical parameters is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong heat sources and open flames. Under these conditions, the product is stable for at least 24 months from the date of manufacture.
