Aristoflex HMB

INCI Name:
Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/Beheneth-25 Methacrylate Crosspolymer

Description:
Aristoflex HMB is a premium polymeric emulsifier and thickener designed to create rich, cushiony, and velvety textures. It stabilizes a wide range of emulsions and gives products a soft, smooth glide without tackiness. Unlike Aristoflex AVC, HMB can handle higher oil loads, making it ideal for creamy lotions, butters, and sunscreen systems. It disperses easily in water and supports cold processing, helping formulators achieve stable, luxurious textures with minimal effort.

4.0 – 8.5
