Polyvinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate (vp/va) copolymer is a film forming ingredient that works well in both skin/hair care products and cosmetics.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate (vp/va) copolymer forms a film on the surface to trap and retain moisture for longer durations.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate (vp/va) copolymer is found primarily in most hair care products, mascaras, nail polishes and also some skin care products.

Uses
The main raw materials of cosmetics are used for hair gel, mousse, shampoo, etc., as well as surfactants, medicine and other industries.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate (vp/va) copolymer mainly used as water-soluble adhesives and dry adhesives in granulation and direct tabletting technology, as film-forming materials in film coating, and as pore forming materials in flavoring agents.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate (vp/va) copolymer is applied to sugar coating to prevent lobes, and the bottom coating is used to prevent moisture.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate (vp/va) copolymer series products are mainly used as film forming agents and shaping agents in the field of cosmetics, especially in hair spray, hair spray, mousse and shampoo series products.
They play an important role as film-forming agents and hair styling agents.
If they are used in conjunction with Polyvinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate (vp/va) copolymer, they will enhance their use effect.
