Lubrizol unleashes Novemer CS polymeric emulsifier

Lubrizol has launched Novemer CS polymer, a polymeric emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer for a wide range of personal care applications including skin care, sun care and makeup.

The polymer is designed to deliver exceptional performance in formulating clear, low to high viscosity gels and emulsions.

Its unique chemistry provides good compatibility with mineral UV filters and makeup pigments as well as imparts a watery and refreshing sensory experience, with smooth spreading.

In skin care formulations, Novemer CS polymer allows formulators to create a wide range of textures and demonstrates outstanding performance even in emulsifier-free systems.

When combined with natural and synthetic rheology modifiers, it provides the ability to create structured gel creams with wide ranges of viscosities that can be tailored to meet specific formulation requirements.

Novemer CS polymer also excels in sun care formulations, offering compatibility with organic and mineral UV filters by bringing a light and watery feeling.

In makeup formulas, Novemer CS polymer compatibility with pigments enables the formulation of liquid makeup and improves its stability, when combined with co-polymers and emulsifiers.

It can also bring further consumer benefits such as improved sweat-resistance on its own or enhanced coverage and transfer resistance when combined with other Lubrizol synthetic polymers.

“Novemer CS polymer allows formulators to achieve precise control over the final product appearance and performance, enabling them to unleash their creativity and develop exceptional products that meet the evolving needs of consumers,” said a Lubrizol spokeswoman.
