At SEPAWA 2018, Lonza will present the latest research on polyglyceryl ester surfactants and showcase its Polyaldo brand.
Lonza will also feature ScreenLight Block, its new bioactivefunctional ingredient that helps protect skin against the visible effects of blue light, UV light and pollution.
SEPAWA takes place 10-12 October in Berlin (DE). Lonza will be at Stand A118-119.
The Lonza Polyaldo polyglyceral esters (PGEs) are naturally derived surfactants that can be easily customized to suit the cleansing-formulation needs of the global personal care market. PEGylation-free, Ethylene oxidefree, and 1,4-dioxane free, the Polyaldo PGE includes proprietary and versatile alternatives to synthetic surfactants. The PGE range offers excellent foam generation while maintaining mildness.
“Polyglyceryl esters can be naturally sourced and have a wide range of solubility and hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) numbers,” said Jordan Petkov, PhD, head Global R&D, Consumer Product Ingredients (CPI), Lonza. “They can be in the form of a liquid, waxy material or a solid
ingredient, depending on their fatty acid composition; and they can be used in emulsions, creams and cosmetics.”
