Plant & Ocean Based Thickeners and Stabilizers
Alginates
INCI: Algin
Alginate is an effective thickener and film-forming agent with moisturizing properties. JRS uses brown algae from the coastal regions of northern France. Our alginate is available in various grades for different applications as a thickener and stabilizer. It is suitable for applications such as peel-off and rinse-off masks.
MCG –Microcrystalline Cellulose Gel
Our MCG is available in different combinations to meet all requirements with only one unique product.
All of these rheology modifiers are designed for specific functions.
The various combinations available always contain MCC with cellulose gum or xanthan gum or both raw materials.
They can be used in various applications where a silky texture and soft skin feel are required.
As an optimization to pure sticky xanthan gum, we developed a composition of Xanthan gum and Microcrystalline Cellulose, which combines emulsifying properties with a gentle skin feeling in one harmonized product.
A third compound – Microcrystalline Cellulose and Cellulose Gum – is especially made for wet-wipe solutions and sun sprays. Its excellent thixotropic properties ensure a homogeneous spray mist and better adherence to the skin after application. In wet wipes, its excellent water-retaining capacity ensures constant humidity.
HPMC
INCI: Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose
HPMC is a rheology modifier suitable for use in disinfectant gels and foams. This rheological additive produces a clear, high-viscosity gel, is alcohol-resistant, and can be used in emulsions, toothpastes, shampoos, soaps, creams, and lotions.
