Sodium polyacrylate

SODIUM POLYACRYLATE

About this ingredient

Sodium polyacrylate is a synthetic crosslinked polymer that functions as a thickening, suspending, and water-absorbing agent in cosmetic formulations. It absorbs and retains significant amounts of water to create gel-like textures, improving spreadability, stability, and hydration in gels, masks, and aqueous products. It enhances product sensory feel and helps maintain consistent texture throughout shelf life.
