Pro aqua ISP
Our Pro-aqua ISP’s companion product Protachem ISP is designed to deliver a more substantive feel to the skin. It incorporates into water-based formulations producing aesthetically pleasing, clear products. This enhanced substantively makes Proa-qua ISP ideal for use in formulations like clear deodorant and anti-perspirants, water based lip products, non-alcoholic toners & splashes, & anti-bacterial hand gels. Our Proa-qua ISP provides an aesthetically pleasing after-feel, which is soft and smooth without any sign of oiliness or greasiness.

Sorbitan Esters
Our Sorbitan Esters are generally soluble in oils or organic solvents and dispensable or insoluble in water. They act as low HLB emulsifiers and thickners useful in emulsions. When combined with the Polyethylene Sorbitan Esters, they form stable emulsions. They find use in cleansing products (cold creams, cleansing lotions, etc.) make-up, foundations, sunscreen products, lipsticks and emulsion products.

Polyoxyethylene and Polyoxypropylene Ethers
Our nonionic surfactants used in personal care products as wetting agents, emulsifiers, solubilizers, conditioners and coupling agents. These products are also used in various cosmetic and toiletries such as cream rinses, conditioners, bath oils, creams, lotions, deodorants, anti-perspirants & shaving products.

Polyethylene Glycol Esters
Our Protamate series offer a wide range of HLB values making them useful as primary and auxiliary nonionic surfactants. Besides their emulsification properties, the lower molecular weight PEG esters are effective pigment wetter in make-up products and solubilizers for fragrance in various personal care products. The higher molecular weight PEG esters act as viscosity boosters, pacifying agents and skin.
