Lubrizol Exhibits at CASCC Suppliers' Day Introduces Naturally Derived Thickener; High Solids, Low Dioxane Surfactant


CLEVELAND, September 20, 2013 - The Lubrizol Corporation will introduce a naturally derived thickener and a high solids, low 1,4-dioxane surfactant for surfactant systems at the California SCC Suppliers' Day tradeshow September 24-25 in Long Beach.

Visit Lubrizol at booth numbers 1015-1017 to learn more about:

  • Glucamate CCO Thickener (INCI: Methyl Glucose Caprate / Caprylate / Oleate and 1,3 Propanediol) is an ideal solution for developing formulations with high renewable carbon content as it is greater than 93% (by weight) derived from corn and vegetal sources. This naturally derived thickener enables the formulation of clear cleansing products with a honey-like flow that imparts mildness and luxurious sensory to the skin. 
  • Sulfochem ES-70DXS Surfactant (INCI: Sodium Laureth-2 Sulfate) is just the first in what will be a new line of highly concentrated, low 1,4-dioxane surfactants. This new surfactant is highly pourable, has very low odor and color, is easy to use and has extremely low levels of residual 1,4-dioxane.

In addition to these new products, formulators and other visitors will have the opportunity to preview new formulated solutions for DEA replacement and sulfate-free systems, plus a new starting formulation for a shampoo that delivers color protection, conditioning and care.

Lipotec, SAU and Active Organics, Inc. will also be present at the event at booths 917 and 915 respectively.
