Colonial Chemical has been conducting research and development efforts toward the invention of new and improved humectants, useful as nonocclusive moisturizers for personal care products.
There are a number of humectants in the marketplace that attract moisture at high humidity levels, but a need has long existed for enhanced performance under severely dry, low humidity conditions. ColaMoist 300P is a polymeric, highly ionized water-soluble compound that enhances water-binding structures. It is hygroscopic at all humidities, attracting and binding water extremely effectively, and provides a higher humidity protective gradient to enhance moisturization on both skin and hair. Its hydrating properties limit water evaporation and serve to retain moisture. Its performance benefits are due to both strong ionic binding and hydrogen bonding within the humectant film matrix.
