FLOCARE ET 1537G – POLYQUATERNIUM-37 THICKENER

Cationic Rheology Modifier and Conditioning Polymer for Hair & Skin Care

FLOCARE ET 1537G is a ready-to-use, Polyquaternium-37-based cationic thickener and rheology modifier designed for cosmetic and personal care formulations.

Its INCI composition is Polyquaternium-37 (and) Propylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate (and) Trideceth-6.

Supplied as a liquid polymer dispersion, FLOCARE ET 1537G combines thickening, conditioning, and film-forming properties, making it particularly suitable for hair conditioners, shampoos, hair masks, styling products, and selected skincare formulations.

The product supports cold-process manufacturing without requiring heating or neutralization, helping cosmetic manufacturers simplify production and reduce processing requirements.

With its cationic conditioning properties, FLOCARE ET 1537G helps improve hair softness, manageability, and texture while providing viscosity control in compatible formulations.

Its recommended usage concentration is 0.1–7%, depending on the desired formulation characteristics.

FLOCARE ET 1537G – POLYQUATERNIUM-37 CONDITIONING AND THICKENING POLYMER

FLOCARE ET 1537G is a cationic polymer dispersion used as a Polyquaternium-37 thickener, conditioning agent, and rheology modifier in cosmetic formulations.

Polyquaternium-37 is a positively charged polymer commonly used in personal care products for its conditioning and film-forming properties.

In FLOCARE ET 1537G, Polyquaternium-37 is supplied as part of a formulated liquid dispersion containing Propylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate and Trideceth-6.

This ready-to-use format allows manufacturers to incorporate the polymer into compatible formulations without a separate neutralization step.

FLOCARE ET 1537G – KEY BENEFITS

1. COLD-PROCESS COMPATIBILITY

FLOCARE ET 1537G supports cold-process manufacturing, making it particularly useful for hair conditioner and personal care formulations.

The product does not require heating or neutralization during incorporation.

This can simplify manufacturing procedures, shorten processing times, and reduce energy requirements compared with formulations that require heated processing.

2. CATIONIC HAIR CONDITIONING

The positively charged Polyquaternium-37 polymer provides conditioning properties that are particularly valuable in hair care formulations.

FLOCARE ET 1537G can help improve:

Hair softness and smoothness
Wet and dry combability
Hair manageability
Antistatic performance
Surface feel and appearance

Its conditioning properties make it relevant for rinse-off hair care products and compatible styling formulations.

3. VISCOSITY AND RHEOLOGY CONTROL

FLOCARE ET 1537G functions as a cationic rheology modifier, helping formulators adjust the viscosity and consistency of compatible cosmetic products.

It can contribute to the development of cream, gel, and conditioner textures according to the desired finished-product characteristics.

4. FILM-FORMING AND TEXTURE ENHANCEMENT

Polyquaternium-37 is valued in personal care formulations for its film-forming and conditioning characteristics.

In hair care products, these properties can contribute to a smoother surface feel and improved manageability.

In compatible skincare formulations, the polymer can help provide a soft and pleasant application feel.

5. EFFICIENT FORMULATION AND PROCESSING

The ready-to-use liquid dispersion format simplifies the incorporation of FLOCARE ET 1537G into cosmetic formulations.

Its cold-process compatibility and lack of a separate neutralization requirement can help manufacturers streamline production.

Actual processing conditions and performance should be confirmed through formulation testing.

FLOCARE ET 1537G – APPLICATIONS

HAIR CARE FORMULATIONS

FLOCARE ET 1537G is particularly relevant for products requiring a combination of conditioning and viscosity control.

Typical applications include:

Hair conditioners
Hair masks
Shampoos
Hair styling creams
Styling gels
Hair mousses

In suitable hair care formulations, its cationic properties can support conditioning, antistatic performance, and improved hair manageability.

SKIN CARE FORMULATIONS

FLOCARE ET 1537G POLYQUATERNIUM-37 may also be evaluated for compatible skincare products, including:

Moisturizing creams
Body lotions
Facial care formulations
Selected cleansing products

Its rheology-modifying and film-forming properties can contribute to the desired consistency and sensory characteristics of these formulations.

Compatibility and finished-product performance should be verified during formulation development.
