BIS-HPA BUTYLETHYLPROPANEDIOL/HDI COPOLYMER

Description

BIS-HPA BUTYLETHYLPROPANEDIOL/HDI COPOLYMER is a synthetic polymer used in advanced haircare formulations. This multifunctional ingredient serves as a film-forming agent, providing long-lasting hold and style memory to hair products. Its unique molecular structure allows it to create a flexible, yet durable film on the hair shaft, enhancing the overall performance of styling products.

The copolymer is particularly effective in high-humidity environments, offering excellent frizz control and humidity resistance. It helps to maintain hairstyles for extended periods while allowing for natural movement and a soft, non-sticky feel. The ingredient is compatible with a wide range of other haircare components, making it versatile for use in various product types, including gels, mousses, and hairsprays.

BIS-HPA BUTYLETHYLPROPANEDIOL/HDI COPOLYMER also contributes to improved product texture and application, ensuring even distribution and smooth application. Its film-forming properties can help protect hair from environmental stressors and heat styling damage. The copolymer is generally well-tolerated and suitable for most hair types, making it a valuable addition to professional-grade haircare formulations designed for both salon and at-home use.
