ALCOGUM L520 is a cationic compatible acid swellable rheology modifier supplied at 20% active solids in water. ALCOGUM L520 has been known as synthetic polymers in order to optimise the performance in a broad range of applications. ALCOGUM L520 can be used as a thickener and rheology modifier in industrial cleaning and adhesives.

STRUCTURE XL is a Natrue approved, naturally-derived, biodegradable rheology and aesthetic modifier that performs as a thickener, emulsion stabilizer and foam enhancer in a broad pH range (3-9). Cold water swellable powder, it dissolves in three minutes with no pre-mixes needed. It can be used as antiperspirants or Deodorants, Hair Color and Dye, Skin Cream and Lotion, Bath and Shower Products, Styling Product, Hair care, Sun care.

Structure XL delivers a matte emulsion with a short, creamy texture that breaks cleaner with a thin feel on skin. For glossy emulsions with short, gel-like texture that breaks down with a smooth cushioned feel on skin, please see Structure Silk, with the same INCI, derived from Potato.

Dissolvine® M-X (MGDA) is a high purity, versatile and readily biodegradable chelate based on alanine, a natural and renewable raw material. MGDA is a fast-working, strong builder with excellent ecological properties, being readily biodegradable and not labelled as dangerous. This makes MGDA an ideal replacement for ingredients under regulatory pressure, such as phosphates (which are banned in various regions due to water eutrophication) in automatic dish washing (ADW) and laundry. It is a drop-in replacement for NTA in industrial and institutional cleaners. In cleaning applications, Dissolvine® M-X, will outperform widely used builders like phosphates, citrates, gluconates and zeolites due to its stronger bonds with hard water ions.

Structure® M3 co-surfactant is an anionic, hydrophobically modified maltodextrin that significantly reduces the irritation potential of commonly used surfactant systems. Mildness: Structure M3 significantly reduces the irritation potential of the surfactant system without compromising cleansing or foaming. Designed with sustainability in mind, it is available as a waterless, free-flowing powder of high natural content (NOI =85) and is readily biodegradable (per OECD 301B). Additionally, it is cold-water processable and compatible with both sulfate- and sulfate-free surfactant systems. Structure® M3 co-surfactant is compatible with a wide range of commonly used rheology modifiers and emulsion stabilizers such as dehydroxanthan Gum (Amaze® XT polymer), Ceteareth-60 Myristyl Glycol (Elfacos® GT 282S nonionic copolymer), Acrylates Copolymer (Balance® RCFg polymer), Polyethylene Glycols and Carbomer, among others.
