Starches

Structure ZEA is a naturally derived, non GMO rheology modifier that thickens and provides stabilization and esthetic enhancements in emulsion systems. Flexible over a wide pH range (3-10), it does not require neutralization and has a high tolerance to electrolytes and cationics. STRUCTURE ZEA is also ideal for boosting viscosity in formulations that requires instant dispersability in cold water or peroxide solutions such as hair bleaches and dyes.
