Today’s consumers not only want their cosmetics to perform well and contribute to their health, but also want to ensure that these products are not harmful to health and do not negatively impact the environme.
Growing awareness of the environmental impact of cosmetics
Growing awareness of the environmental impact of cosmeticsIn early 2019, the European Chemical Agency (ECHA) published a proposal to limit the addition of microplastics to cosmeti.
However, polymers are still a must-have ingredient in many products to achieve the performance and organoleptic properties desired by consume.
Therefore, the cosmetic industry needs to develop innovative polymer solutions that balance performance, safety, natural origin and biodegradabili.
Not all polymers are microplastics
Not all polymers are microplasticsThe ECHA restriction proposal aims to limit microplastics added to cosmetics from 202 This restriction only applies to solid particles made of non-biodegradable polyme.
End-of-life microplastics used in cosmetics
End-of-life microplastics used in cosmeticsHowever, the lifetime is the same whether or not the polymer composition is microplast.
The future of synthetic film-forming polymers
The future of synthetic film-forming polymersAlthough the film-forming polymers do not meet the ECHA definition recommendations for microplastics, their difficulty in degrading in the environment remains a problem and may therefore be restricted in the futu.
Polyurethane film formers: solutions for long-term sustainable cosmetics
Polyurethane film formers: solutions for long-term sustainable cosmeticsPolyurethanes (PU) are commonly used film formers because of their excellent mechanical, barrier and sensory properti.
