DFFs Differentiated Film Formers

 

SYNTRAN 5190:  Acrylates Copolymer





SYNTRAN 5190 has been designed to enable the personal care formulator to balance key film forming properties.   Through a proprietary polymerization process and with specific monomer and functional group selection, Interpolymer is able to carefully balance properties of adhesion, cohesion, gloss, water resistance and film flexibility.

 

The differentiated film formers offered by Interpolymer have been used in a variety of cosmetic and toiletry applications by many well known consumer products companies for over twenty-five years.   The adhesion and film flexibility properties of SYNTRAN 5190 make it ideally suited for mascara applications.
