Acrylates/vinyl isodecanoate crosspolymer

Acrylates/vinyl isodecanoate crosspolymer (CAS 191808-02-3), commercially available as Stabylen 30, is a crosslinked acrylic polymer used to control viscosity and texture in aqueous and emulsion-based formulations.

It functions as a rheology modifier and thickener, enabling formulators to achieve stable, aesthetically refined products across personal care and industrial applications. In skin care and hair care formulations, it builds gel structure.

It suspends active ingredients without leaving heavy residue, making it suitable for lightweight lotions, serums, and styling gels. Coating formulators use it to adjust flow and leveling behavior in waterborne systems.

This improves application performance and film uniformity. In home care products such as liquid detergents and surface cleaners, it provides the viscosity profile needed for controlled dispensing and cling on vertical surfaces.

Adhesive and sealant manufacturers incorporate it to tune rheological behavior during processing and application. Acrylates/vinyl isodecanoate crosspolymer is typically supplied as a liquid dispersion or gel-form concentrate.

It is available in cosmetic-grade specifications aligned with INCI and international regulatory standards for personal care use. Technical-grade supply is also available for industrial coatings, cleaning, and adhesive applications.
