Issue 7/2016 - Covestro is introducing a new generation of beauty solutions that effectively isolate pollution

Covestro Promotes Next-Generation Beauty Solutions
for Effective Pollution Isolation Covestro recently showcased its advanced polyurethane (PU) film-forming technology
for the development of next-generation skincare, sunscreen, hair and color cosmetics products at the 2016 China International Cosmetics & Home Care Ingredients Exhibition.
To meet the market demand for beauty solutions that effectively isolate pollution, especially in Asia, Covestro has developed a new formulation
for a new generation of skin care and color cosmetics based on Baycusan?C1004 products.
Polyurethane raw materials can form an invisible film on the skin with good air permeability, and cosmetics with this raw material can isolate the skin and pollutants (PM2.
5)
through this invisible barrier.

Covestro has developed Baycusan?C 2000 (polyurethane-64)
that fully meets the needs of consumers who prefer transparent and thin sunscreen sprays or gel products.
Adding a small amount of Baycusan?C 2000 to the sunscreen formula can significantly increase the SPF SPF index
than commonly used film-forming agents.
It is extremely waterproof and maintains sun protection even when the user is repeatedly immersed in water
.
The formula evaporates quickly for the ultimate skin experience and, more importantly, it can be applied to
wet skin.
Compared to other film formers, this polyurethane raw material can be used without heating or alkali neutralizing the product, thus saving manufacturers time, energy and money
