Polyurethane-58

Wat is het?

Polyurethane-58 is a complex polymer made by reacting polytetramethylene ether glycol, 2,2-dimethylolpropionic acid and meta-tetramethylenexylenediisocyanate to form a prepolymer. The prepolymer is dispersed in water with 2-dimethylamino-2-methylpropanol as neutralizer and chain-extended with ethylenediamine.

Wat doet het?

Polyurethane-58 staat in de EU-inventaris van cosmetische ingrediënten met de volgende aangegeven functies:
