Usage

Description

Guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride (GHPT) is a derivative of guar gum, a natural polysaccharide extracted from the seeds of the guar plant. It is a cationic polymer that possesses anti-irritant and anti-inflammatory properties, making it suitable for various applications in personal care and cosmetic products.

Uses

Used in Personal Care and Cosmetic Industry:
Guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride is used as a thickening, conditioning, and anti-static agent for enhancing the texture and performance of personal care and cosmetic products. It helps maintain a product's smoothing action and imparts excellent skin conditioning in creams or lotions that may not be suitable for facial use.
Used in Skin Care Products:
Guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride is used as a skin-softening agent in skin care products, providing lubricity and improving the overall feel of the product when in contact with the skin. Some manufacturers also cite its potential to enhance a formulation's viscosity and stability, contributing to the product's effectiveness and longevity.
