Hydrogenated Polydecene

Hydrogenated Polydecene (also known as Alphaflow) is a hydrocarbon-based emollient derived from the hydrogenation of polydecene (1-decene homopolymer, CAS# 68037-01-4). It is available in different viscosities ranging from silky-light to rich and luxurious textures. It forms a non-occlusive film on the skin surface and is noted for being a very pure and hypoallergenic ingredient, making it suitable even for baby care products.
