Polawax™ GP-200

Polawax™ GP-200 by Croda is a preservative-, EDTA- & BHT/BHA-free, non-ionic emulsifying wax. This plant and petrochemical derived ingredient is an optimised combination of vegetable-derived emulsifiers and stabilizers. It creates creams or lotions with an excellent texture and stability. It is a mild ingredient which remains stable in the presence of metals ions and over a wide pH and temperature range. In skin care products, it forms liquid crystals within the emulsion promoting time release hydration and functions as a slow release delivery mechanism for actives. Polawax™ GP-200 is used in bath, shower, soaps, antiperspirants & deodorants, after-sun, facial cleansers, hair relaxing/permanent waves, shampoos, shaving/hair removal, styling and sun protection products. Also, used in body- eye contour-, lip- & face/neck skin care products and face-, hair-, lip-, nail care & color formulations.
