Clariant International Ltd and Global Bioenergies have developed a new bio-based polymer for cosmetic creams and lotions, which is derived from renewable isobutene.
Developed with Global Bioenergies' sugar-based isobutene, Clariant's new ingredient is a rheology modifier that influences formulation viscosity and achieves specific sensorial and texturizing properties for creams and lotions. It contains more than 50 percent renewable carbon and consequently meets the ISO 16128:2016 standard for natural and organic cosmetic ingredients and products.
The bio-based polymer is a breakthrough for the industry as it is proven not to change the properties of an application, offering formulators a direct 1:1 alternative to petroleum-based equivalents.
