SODIUM ACRYLATE/SODIUM ACRYLOYLDIMETHYL TAURATE COPOLYMER

Chem/IUPAC Name:	Copolymer of sodium acrylate and sodium acryloyldimethyl taurate monomers
COSING REF No:	85127

Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer is a polymer used in cosmetics and personal care products as a thickening and stabilizing agent. It is a white, fluffy, and free-flowing powder that is easily dispersible in water. The chemical formula for this copolymer is (C₃H₃NaO₂)x(C₁₃H₂₁NO₄S)y, where x and y are the number of repeating units in the polymer chain. Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer is commonly used in skincare products such as lotions, creams, and gels to improve their texture and viscosity. It helps to create a smooth and silky feel on the skin and prevents the separation of different components in the formulation.
