Acrylates Copolymer SF 1 – 100ml
Clear Gels. Smooth Texture. Easy Formulating.
Acrylates Copolymer SF-1 is a versatile, pre-neutralized rheology modifier that creates crystal-clear, stable gels with a soft, non-tacky skin feel. This ingredient thickens water-based systems effortlessly—no need for neutralizers or additional pH adjusters—making it ideal for streamlined gel-based cosmetic and skincare formulations.
With superior clarity and excellent compatibility, SF-1 is perfect for crafting alcohol-free hand sanitizers, hydrating gel serums, and cooling body gels. It performs well even in the presence of electrolytes, botanical extracts, and active ingredients like niacinamide, panthenol, or hyaluronic acid.
