INCI: Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate
Function: Thickener, Stabilizer, Bulk Agent
Applications: Skin creams, hair conditioners, lotions

Key Benefits:

TEXTURLUX® Rheo is a powerhouse thickener that provides superior texture modification in formulations while maintaining stability across a wide pH range (pH 3-9). It works well in skin creams and conditioners, creating a glossy finish and enhancing the feel of the product. Unlike many synthetic thickeners, it is readily biodegradable and derived from renewable resources. Rheo also features outstanding dispersibility in cold water, making it easy to incorporate into formulations without heating, which can save both energy and time during production.

INCI: Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate
Function: Thickener, Stabilizer, Bulk Agent
Applications: Gels, creams, lotions

Key Benefits:

TEXTURLUX® Feel offers a unique sensory experience by providing a soft, matte finish in formulations. While it shares many of the functional properties of Rheo, such as thickening and stabilizing, its specialty lies in creating products with a lighter, velvety texture. It’s ideal for use in gel-based products and matte-finish creams where a non-greasy, smooth texture is desired. Like Rheo, it’s cold-processable and biodegradable, making it an eco-friendly choice for formulators who prioritize both texture and sustainability.
