US chemicals maker Advancion has launched a next-generation portfolio of multifunctional additives based on its new aminoamyl alcohol technology platform.
The Elevance Ultra multifunctional additives (INCI: Amino Methylisobutanol) are said to provide superior hair fixative resin performance and pigment dispersion.
They are compatible with a wide range of commonly used natural and synthetic formulating ingredients supporting cleaner and more effective personal care products.
The products are currently produced at Advancion’s Sterlington, Louisiana facility, with future technology transfer and capacity investments planned for adding dual manufacturing capabilities at the company’s Ibbenbüren, Germany site.
Multiple commercial batches of Advancion’s new multifunctional additives are available for formulation evaluation globally.
Commercial volumes are now available for sale in Europe, select Asian and South American markets, and for use in the United States in personal care and cosmetics products only.
Elevance Ultra multifunctional additives are REACH-registered substances and have successfully completed the initial registration process in China.
“We are excited to deliver a new product family that redefines the standards for multifunctional ingredients and enables our global customers to create high-performance end-use products that meet the demands of today’s markets and tomorrow’s sustainability goals, said CEO David Neuberger.
