Description

AMPHOMER polymer is an amphoteric acrylic polymer with outstanding curl retention properties. It is a stiff resin with unparalleled holding power for ultimate control in all temperature and humidity conditions. It is also more efficient than other high performance hair spray resins, offering formulators the option of reducing solids for a soft, easy hold with good curl retention, while reducing resin cost. Other important characteristics of AMPHOMER polymer are sprayability, ease of combing, good solubility and ease of removal upon shampooing. AMPHOMER SOL polymer is a liquid version of AMPHOMER polymer and is available in Europe only.
