Uses:  poly acrylate crosspolymer -6 is a non-microplastic highly performing thickening, stabilizing and texturizing powder polymer. It has a maximal resistance to electrolytes and can be used to formulate with great creativity and peace of mind. It is the perfect polymer for building the "chassis" of formulations and addressing the challenge of stress-inducing and difficult active ingredients. Providing excellent suspensive properties, it forms transparent gels with a velvet, rich and elegant feel. It can be used in both skin care and hygiene products. It is inherently ultimately biodegradable.

• Chemical Exfoliants: Ideal for AHA (Glycolic/Lactic Acid) and BHA (Salicylic Acid) serums due to its high acid stability.
• Brightening Serums: Used in Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) or Niacinamide formulas to stabilize high concentrations of active ingredients.
• Sunscreen Lotions: Helps stabilize complex UV filters and enhances the spreadability of heavy sun protection creams.
• Gel-Creams & Moisturizers: Creates lightweight, quick-absorbing "water-drop" textures for oily and acne-prone skin.
• Hair Styling Products: Used in clear hair gels and serums to provide a smooth hold without flaking or stickiness.
• Body Washes & Scrubs: Suspends exfoliating beads, glitters, or oils evenly throughout clear cleansing formulas.
