Polyacrylic Acid-Based Cosmetic Ingredients

ARONVIS®、JUNLON®、RHEOGIC®、JURYMER®

ARONVIS®, JURYMER® AC series, and RHEOGIC® are polyacrylic acids (and salts) that can be used as thickeners in emulsions, skin creams, moisturizing creams, lotions, and other products. By combining various polyacrylic acids (and salts) with crosslinking agents, they can also be used in water-containing sheet-gel formulations such as facial masks.

The JURYMER® AT and ET series are aqueous polyacrylate solutions used as film-forming agents, pigment dispersants, and binders in eyeliners, eye shadows, mascaras, and nail polishes. They are self-emulsifying emulsions containing no surfactants.

Used as lubricants in foundations and lipsticks, the JURYMER MB series consists of spherical polymers composed mainly of methyl methacrylate. Their colorless, transparent, spherical particles provide excellent flow and slip properties and contain virtually no harmful substances such as heavy metals.

In addition, MB-1P has a porous surface and provides excellent oil absorption.
