Applications Benefits

ESAFLOR® cationic guar derivatives are truly multipurpose ingredients:

• Conditioning effect:Their cationic charge can interact with keratin, leaving skin silky and soft, and hair easy to comb. They can also reduce the negative effects of harsh soaps and surfactants.
• Foam boosting: Foaming properties of surfactants can be increased, improving the sensory appeal of rinseoff products.
• Thickening: Viscosity of formulas can be enhanced thanks to guar polymeric nature.
• Optimized actives delivery: Delivery of water-insoluble ingredients onto hair and skin can be enhanced, with a co-deposition mechanism.
