Product List
Beauty and Personal Care Ingredients 2

The Performance Products division of Huntsman manufactures a wide range of

chemistries which are utilised in diverse applications. Our expertise and awareness
of the individual demands of diverse markets helps to make us one of the foremost
suppliers of ingredients for cosmetics, including anionic, non-ionic, amphoteric and
cationic surfactants and formulation aids.

The unique properties of surfactants and related products, such as hydrotropes and
dispersants, can be used to give numerous benefits within cosmetics, apart from
the most obvious functions of cleaning and wetting. Functions might include:

Modification of viscosity or rheology to enhance the flow characteristics of

liquids.

Optimisation of the volume, characteristics and stability of foam.

Enhancing mildness to the skin and eyes.

Suspension or emulsification of insoluble oils and vitamins.

Emolliency and humectancy.

Many surfactants are multi-functional and the selection of a surfactant can therefore
have a valuable impact on a formulation. The following list represents the most
common products available from Huntsman typically employed within the cosmetics
market, according to what we perceive as the primary function of a given product.

For further information about a particular product please request the individual
Safety and Technical data sheets.

Notes

Preservative
This list is intended to show only the most typical grades. In some cases, alternative grades may also exist. Huntsman are also prepared to consider
the manufacture of special grades or to incorporate a preservative of the customer’s choice.
Many products, especially those at high concentration, are relatively resistant to microbial attack and do not need to be preserved under normal
storage conditions, signified by (-).

Appearance and concentration

The list is intended as a quick guide to aid selection, using typical or approximate values. Please refer to the individual product data sheet for more
