Lubrizol launches Arbalon® RC 76 cellulose liquid, a cationic, cellulose-derived rheology modifier for personal care formulations.
The growing demand for sustainable solutions is driving beauty innovation toward high performance with no compromise. Sustainability remains a key criterion in ingredient selection, expanding beyond active ingredients to include natural and naturally derived functional materials that enable high naturality formulations while supporting credible, science-backed sustainability claims.
According to Lubrizol, Arbalon® RC 76 cellulose liquid provides suspension of oils, pearlizers, and a broad range of particles. Its cationic nature supports the development of clear to translucent formulations with an improved sensory profile, and maintains clarity across a wide pH range.
The ingredient provides thickening performance in both sulfated and sulfate-free systems. It is reported to support cleansing formulations, including antibacterial formats. Arbalon® RC 76 cellulose liquid offers sensory performance in haircare applications, enhancing shampoos, conditioners, and leave on treatments by improving deposition while preserving a premium sensorial feel.
