About this ingredient

A synthetic polymer copolymer composed of acrylic acid and dimethyltaurine units that functions as a rheology modifier and gelling agent in cosmetic formulations. It thickens and stabilizes emulsions and suspensions to create smooth, spreadable textures while maintaining product stability without adding weight or occlusion. Particularly effective in gel-cream and lightweight lotion formulations.
