TRIMETHYLSILOXYSILYL PROPYLCARBAMOYL HYDROLYZED VA/DIACETOXYBUTENE COPOLYMER

Description

TRIMETHYLSILOXYSILYL PROPYLCARBAMOYL HYDROLYZED VA/DIACETOXYBUTENE COPOLYMER is an advanced synthetic polymer designed for use in skincare and cosmetic formulations. This multifunctional ingredient serves as a film-forming agent, providing a protective barrier on the skin's surface. Its unique chemical structure combines silicone-based components with hydrolyzed vinyl acetate and diacetoxybutene, resulting in enhanced performance characteristics.

The copolymer exhibits excellent adhesion to the skin, forming a flexible and breathable film that helps to lock in moisture and protect against environmental stressors. It also contributes to the smooth application and even distribution of other active ingredients in the formulation. The silicone portion of the molecule imparts a silky, non-greasy feel to the skin, improving the overall sensory experience of the product.

In addition to its film-forming properties, this copolymer can help to improve the longevity and wear of cosmetic products, making it particularly useful in long-lasting makeup formulations. Its ability to create a uniform, cohesive film also aids in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, providing a temporary smoothing effect on the skin's surface.
