Dow Reichhold Introduces Unique PolySaf 5600 Polymer for Personal
Care Applications
New Polymer Will Enable Personal Care Products with Improved
Deodorancy and Clean After Feel
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) May 7, 2008 --
Dow Reichhold Specialty Latex today introduced PolySaf 5600 polymer, a
new ingredient for use in personal care products, including body washes,
shampoos and deodorants. Utilizing unique cationic emulsion chemistry,
this new polymer will help formulators develop extremely mild and gentle
personal care products with improved deodorancy and a clean after feel
(less build up). The company will showcase PolySaf 5600 polymer at the New
York SCC Suppliers' Day event in Edison, New Jersey, on May 14 and
15, Booth 207.
“We are delighted by the positive response
from several pre-launch partners regarding the benefits of PolySaf 5600.
There has been a great deal of interest in evaluating this material,”
Doug Johnson, global marketing manager for the Personal Care Group at
Dow Reichhold, said “We look forward to
introducing PolySaf 5600 to more formulators during NY SCC Suppliers'
Day later this month.”
PolySaf 5600 polymer is a multifunctional water-based polymer that
imparts many benefits, including: deodorancy; clean after feel;
antistatic properties; film forming ability; non-irritating and good
foaming. It is also compatible with a wide range of other personal care
ingredients, enabling future new product development efforts.
“The unique patents-pending cationic emulsion
technology behind PolySaf 5600 polymer gives formulators of personal
care products a new level of R&D flexibility,”
Dr. Venkataram Krishnan, new business technology leader at Dow
Reichhold, explained. “In addition to the many
functional benefits of the polymer itself, its compatibility and benign
nature allow for a wide range of possible solutions. We're excited to
see what formulators will do with this new design and development
freedom.”
