Description
This comprehensive work is a reference on cosmetic and personal care additives, designed for the use of professionals across the cosmetic and personal care industries. Choosing the right ingedients in the process of developing new products is a time-consuming task. The international choice of additives is often baffling; yet getting it right is crucial to a product's success. The reference is specifically designed to make light work of chemical product research in the field. Over 15,000 international trade names are covered, each entry giving details of essential properties and applications, industry references, manufacturers and suppliers. The entry information is supplemented by extensive cross-referencing of trade name products by chemical composition, function and CAS (Chemical Abstract Service), and EINECS (European Inventory of Existing Commercial Chemical Services) numbers. CTFA (Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association) names have been updated in most cases to the new INCI (International Nomenclature Ingedients) names.
The reference is divided into four parts: the first covers trade name references; the second covers trade name functional cross-reference; the third deals with chemical component cross-references; and the fourth comprises a manufacturers directory.
