Science
Mechanism of Action
Functioning as a film-former, it deposits a continuous, cohesive layer upon application to the skin, hair, or nails. Additionally, it acts as a rheology modifier, precisely adjusting the viscosity of cosmetic products to achieve desired textural properties.

The Formula
Formulation
Stability
The Sucrose Acetate Isobutyrate (SAIB) component, integral to this copolymer, exhibits excellent thermal, hydrolytic, and color stability, alongside minimal volatility. Product viscosity can be significantly reduced by incorporating small quantities of specific organic solvents, such as ethanol, NMP, or benzyl alcohol.
Safety
Safety Profile
Specific safety assessments by CIR or SCCS for this precise copolymer formulation are not available in the provided data. However, key constituent esters, Sucrose Acetate Isobutyrate (SAIB) and Sucrose Benzoate, have been individually reviewed by CIR and deemed safe for cosmetic use under current practices. SAIB is also recognized as generally safe (GRAS) by the FDA for certain food applications, with concentration limits. Detailed safety data specifically addressing the Butyl Benzyl Phthalate component within this copolymer were not found.
