Protachem™ ISP

CAS Number
72576-80-8
EC Number
276-719-0

Protachem™ ISP is a non-comedogenic, saturated liquid emollient with an extraordinary skin feel and low freezing point. It is virtually colorless, odorless, and tasteless, which suggests its use in lip products. In stick formulations, Protachem ISP provides excellent pour and mold-release properties, while imparting remarkable spreadability. It functions as a co-solubilizer for silicones and waxes in sunscreens, and may be considered to be an “oil-free” ingredient for cosmetics. When incorporated into creams or lotions at levels as low as 3%, Protachem ISP imparts a light, silky emolliency, eliminating the greasy feel of mineral oil or other heavier esters. Protachem ISP is derived from renewable, non-animal source raw materials which is a real plus in today’s rapidly evolving consumer marketplace.
