ISO-Polymers

ISO-Polymers are highly branched polymers having a unique conbination of high molecular weight and low melting points.

ISO-Polymers create a network of crystalline chains in formulations which allows for enhanced stability and controls syneresis.

ISO-Polymers have exceptional gel forming characteristics and produce continous films in creams and lotions.

Selected ISO-Polymers produce clear or transparent formulations suitable for use in lip balms, deodorants, solid sunscreens, insect repelents, or solid frangrances.
