POLY(DIMER ALMOND OIL).

Insufficient Data CAS - / FILM FORMING, SKIN CONDITIONING, VISCOSITY CONTROLLING

POLY(DIMER ALMOND OIL) is a polymer derived from sweet almond oil via a Diels-Alder reaction, engineered to impart specific textural and skin-benefiting properties. It primarily serves as a film-forming agent, a skin conditioning agent, and a viscosity controller within cosmetic formulations.

Science

Mechanism of Action

This unique polymer forms a fine, protective film on the skin's surface, which can contribute to enhanced barrier function and a smoother feel. It also functions as a conditioning agent, aiding in improving the skin's suppleness and appearance, and modulates the texture of formulations by controlling viscosity. Its creation through the dimerization of Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (sweet) almond oil results in a distinct molecular structure.
