Description

Pullulan

Pullulan is a water-soluble glucan gum derived from Aureobasidium pullulans. Pullulan is popular for its adherence properties, which can have instant skin-tightening effects. Pullulan can bind effectively to surfactants in water, potentially enhancing the properties of those surfactants. It is suitable for formulating a wide range of products, including creams, lotions, hair products, color cosmetics and lip sticks and glosses. The potential applications of pullulan span many industries, including but not limited to health care and food science, and its beneficial characteristics, like moisture absorption, solubility, biogradability, and nontoxicity, make it a popular choice for modern cosmetic formulators.
