Water-soluble emollient ester for personal care systems

Hydramol™ PGDS ester is a water-soluble emollient perfectly suited for adding emolliency without greasiness. In skin care emulsions, it delivers emolliency from the water phase on contact. In hair treatment, the large, branched polymer structure of Hydramol PGDS ester adds body and manageability. It can replace alkanolamides in cleansing systems where it not only provides conditioning and emolliency, but builds viscosity and enhances lather as well. Hydramol™ PGDS ester is recommended for use in cleansing systems, including hand sanitizer gels, and for use in antiperspirant and deodorant applications.
