ELLAMERA BI-THIN 402
INCI: Hydrogenated Styrene/Isoprene Copolymer
Overview
Ellamera BI-THIN 402 is a multi-functional polymeric rheology modifier that is soluble in low polarity liquid carriers and oils, such as Isododecane and Squalane. The product enables clear, thixotropic, water-repellent gels with film forming and suspension properties. Depending on the desired effect, adding 3-5 percent to the oil is recommended. Ellamera BI-THIN 402 is manufactured in North America and supplied as an undusted white powder. It is manufactured with synthetic chemical raw materials and does not directly contain and is not produced from any animal derived raw materials. Further, it does not come in contact with materials of animal origin during manufacture. The REACH legislation is complex and obligations depend, among others, on produced or imported volumes, product composition, product production location and your role in the supply chain. The Kraton Product is considered a polymer under REACH.
