Advancion has unleashed Hepes Ultra PC buffer onto the global personal care market.
Hepes Ultra PC buffer (INCI: Hydroxyethylpiperazine Ethane Sulfonic Acid) is a pH stabilizer suitable for a wide range of personal care and colour cosmetics applications, including skin creams and lotions, toners, serums, cleansers, and sunscreens.
The US maker says it offers exceptional water solubility, heat resistance, and low cell membrane permeability, as well as excellent resistance to oxidation-reduction reactions and UV light.
Made at Advancion’s Sterlington, Louisiana manufacturing facility and compliant with the latest worldwide standards, Hepes Ultra PC buffer is a versatile formulating tool and can be used in combination with other ingredients to support the quality and performance of skincare and cosmetics products.
"We are constantly evaluating new opportunities to expand our personal care ingredients portfolio beyond amino alcohols to include other buffers and high value formulating tools, such as natural botanical extracts and now, Hepes Ultra PC buffer," said Debby Neubauer, global business manager for home and personal care.
"Our new product development efforts will continue to be focused on providing formulators and manufacturers with powerful, multifunctional ingredients that help meet growing market demand for high-performance and eco-friendly cosmetics and personal care products,” she added.
“We are looking forward to continuing our momentum with new product introductions with the commercial availability of our new, bio-based multifunctional amino alcohol later in 2024."
