Sodium Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Sodium Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer is a pre-neutralised form of the common thickener and emulsion stabilizer Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer. It is a synthetic polymer derived from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, and/or their simple esters, crosslinked with allyl sucrose or allyl pentaerythritol ethers, supplied as sodium salts. It functions primarily as a viscosity-controlling agent and emulsion stabilizer in cosmetic formulations.

● Benefits

Its primary role is to thicken and stabilize cosmetic formulations, helping to create smooth, uniform textures in gels, lotions, and creams. As a pre-neutralised variant, it offers formulators convenience by not requiring a separate neutralisation step. No direct skin-benefit claims are supported by the source beyond its functional role in product texture.
