Cosmetic-Grade Pullulan, CAS 9057-02-7 Thickening and Moisturizing Additives
Description:
Pullulan is formed through the polymerization of maltotriose monomers. Widely used in cosmetics, this natural ingredient exhibits remarkable adhesion properties that allow easy skin surface attachment. It demonstrates excellent stability, lubrication, and film-forming capabilities, making it a preferred choice for healthy cosmetic formulations.
Characteristics :
►Sticky filler: good water solubility, film formation, hygroscopicity, non-toxic.
►Lubricant: Pulranolactone solution is a Newtonian fluid, which has excellent lubrication despite its low viscosity. It is used in cosmetics to make it feel smooth on the skin.
►Antioxidant: Antioxidant, give the skin a strong protection against external environmental damage, and effectively inhibit the formation of melanin.
►Moisturizer: Pulan polysaccharide film has excellent characteristics such as moisturizing, which can protect the skin from external damage.

Applications:
Pullulan exhibits suitable viscosity when dissolved in water, a property that proves particularly useful in cosmetic manufacturing (e.g., shampoos) to achieve smooth and viscous structures that allow active ingredients to be effectively applied to the skin. pullulan can be used independently or in combination with other thickeners or gelling agents, demonstrating excellent compatibility properties.
Pullulan has excellent film-forming and coating properties. It can form a tough, impermeable film (e.g., mask) with antistatic properties that protect fragrances and active substances, stabilize oils, resist oil permeation, and is easy to clean.
