Inolex has launched a new range of 100% natural and sustainable emollients, using biobased succinic acid from BioAmber.
These succinate emollients have the highly appealing and differentiated sensory feel of silicone fluids, including feeling silky, powdery, light, dry and non-greasy to the touch. This sensory experience gives the clean, dry and natural feeling consumers want from their personal care routine. The new succinate emollients are highlyversatile because of their sensory properties and ability to disperse pigments. These fluids can be used in skin care, hair care, colour and antiperspirant products to provide shine and a light fast-drying emolliency. These emollients are suitable as alternatives to silicone fluids for improving skin-feel, as well as enhancing shine and texture in hair care products. They can also be used to reduce the greasiness of natural oils. Inolex are launching a range of succinate technologies as natural silicone alternatives; the LexFeel Nrange of fluids feel like silicones, yet unlike silicones, they are 100% natural, readily-biodegradable, non-GMO, eco-certified and sustainable.
