innollient™ SL

innollient SL is a soft wax mainly composed of soy-derived fatty acids including hydrophilic pockets interacting with water molecules through hydrogen bonding. A structural characteristic of innollient SL is the use of saturated lipophilic acyl linear chains as capping groups in the estolide assemblage. This provides excellent film forming properties to innollient SL while reinforcing inter-molecular interactions. The main benefits provided by innollient SL are the film-forming action and a unique emollient capacity coupled to a significant improvement of the skin barrier function. Applications include: Skin moisturizing; Improving skin barrier function and resiliency; Improving formulation texture; Pigment dispersion; Sunscreen formulations; Makeup formulations; Hair care; Emollient formulations; Natural alternative to cyclomethicone
