Polyamide 3

Polyamide 3 is a partially vegetable-derived rheology modifier for formulation with low to high polarity organic liquids. High bio-renewable content. Sustainable product, only partially petroleum derived. Provides multifunctional benefits including uniform delivery of actives, pigments and solids while reducing or eliminating the need for emulsifiers. Forms shear thinning emulsions that provide a positive sensory feel while improving skin hydration. Can stabilize emulsions over a broad pH range and accommodate high oil and fat loadings including silicones. Forms gelled oil-in-water and water-in-gelled-oil emulsions that are pH insensitive (gels can be water soluble or insoluble). Ads water-resistance to sunscreens and stabilizes inorganic UV filters. Compatible with common emollients used in sun care emulsions. Provides excellent skin feel with low tack. Acts as emulsion stabilizers and reduces the need for adding multiple emulsifiers in formulas.
