# Pluronic Surfactants: Cosmetics
# Hot Weather Additives.
Just the surfactants you need when your products are soaking up the sun.
Partly because Pluronic surfactants in everything from suntan products to hair dressings, can’t harm skin. All grade are non-sensitizing, non-irritating, and virtually non-toxic. Many have U.S. Food and Drug Administration listings. And, Pluronic surfactants are nonionic and 100% active.
They have no odor or color. Physical forms range from liquids and pastes to powders and cast solids. Properties vary from almost complete water insolubility to no cloud point even at 212 F.
Add Pluronic surfactants and make your cosmetics work better wherever they go. Contact us.

[additional notes]
I found it interesting how many applications there were and how they were “virtually non-toxic.” Also this product is helpful in that it is nonionic and has no odor or color.
