A multi-functional thickening polymer being inherently ultimately biodegradable. Can be used in rinse-off and leave-on formulations for hair and skin to help build the viscosity. Hydrates very quickly in cold water, making it an excellent choice for the design of waterless cleansers that consumers reconstitute at home. It can also be used to improve the stability of hair conditioners & hair treatments formulas. It also provides additional benefits such as hair and skin conditioning. Comes from Syensqo’s Sustainable Guar Initiative (SGI) Program.
