Anti-static agent

Anti-static Ingredients or Chemicals 

Description of Anti-static agent: Anti-static agents are used to prevent or lessen static build up in materials. Anti-static agents work through a variety of mechanisms, depending on the exact kind of molecule used.  

In the Personal Care industry, anti-static agents are especially important in Skin Care and Hair Care products. In hair care products, anti-static agents can help prevent ‘’fly-away’’ hair and improve combability. IngreCore offers a wide range of Anti-static agents, primarily for cosmetics and cleaning products for example Polyquaternium 11PE, Cetrimonium Chloride, Petroleum Jelly 4PC and PhosEster 1214A.
