Naturally Fortifying Enhancement Systems for Personal Care Products
 
 

Enhansys™ is a new line of tailored personal care ingredients that fortify your formulations naturally and at the same time help you to achieve a number of challenging formulation goals. These naturally-derived, Patent-Pending proprietary systems give you an alternative approach to protecting your formulations from manufacturing to the shelf, while at the same time enhancing formulation performance.

Enhansys™ is a versatile and cost effective approach for fortifying and enhancing Personal Care product formulations. Use Enhansys™ for the formulation performance functionalities of conditioning, moisturization, thickening, stabilizing and pH control, and find that traditional preservatives are not needed. Enhansys™ fortified formulations are self-preserving systems that enable a high level of protection against in-package biodegradation resulting from manufacturing contamination, process water, raw materials and/or environment.

Enhansys™ systems are clear liquids that function at low concentration and are fully compatible with nonionic, anionic, and cationic surfactants, emulsifiers and proteins, and are stable over wide pH and temperature ranges.

Enhansys™ systems are based on INCI listed materials that are GRAS, naturally derived, and food industry ingredients that have been tested extensively to meet Personal Care regulatory standards.

Patent-Pending Enhansys™ M-110 is a proprietary system of functional ingredients that bring a range of benefits to Personal Care formulations:

Glycereth-2 Cocoate is an effective Moisturizer and Thickener; Benzoic Acid is useful in pH Control; C4-18 Perfluoroalkylethyl Thiohydroxypropyltrimoniun Chloride is an ultra efficient Stabilizer, Hair and Skin Conditioning Agent.

Moisturizing Effect

The moisturizing effect of glycerine and its derivatives are well known. The moisturizing ability EnhansysM-110 was compared to the emollients PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate (G-7C) and PEG-6 Caprilic/Capric Glycerides (G-6C/C) in a simple composition containing 10% of emollient, 1.5% Polysorbate 60, 0.5% Sorbitan Monostearate in water. In this illustration glycerin was considered as positive control and water as negative control. After application on the same area 2 times a day for two weeks, conductance was measured. EnhansysM-110 showed superior moisturization effectiveness compared to the other emollients.
