DRY-FLO AF
Corn Starch Modified
DRY-FLO AF is the newest member of the DRY-FLO ¢ç family of hydrophobically modified corn starches which is well known for its ability to enhance the aesthetics of a broad variety of skin care products. The properties, features, and benefits of DRY-FLO AF are essentially the same as those found with DRY-FLO PC. However, the novel chemistry used in the design of DRY-FLO AF has produced two very distinct improvements. First, since an aluminum salt is not used in the production of DRY-FLO AF, the product is aluminum free. Second, in the presence of water, DRY-FLO AF is substantially more resistant to the swelling effect of heat. The formulator is now able to utilize the unique properties of DRY-FLO in situations where previously it may not have been possible because of either of these factors. Due to its smooth, velvety feel, DRY-FLO AF can be utilized to cost effectively improve aesthetics in a variety of loose and pressed powders, as well as lotions and creams. An effective talc replacement, DRY-FLO AF is a hydrophobically modified natural polymer which can absorb body moisture and does not produce undesirable whitening on the skin. Perhaps the most distinctive property of this unique product is its ability to impart a pleasantly light, dry, lubricious feel to lotions, creams, deodorants, and antiperspirants, both during application and after dry-down. It has the ability
to mitigate greasiness in even the heaviest formulations. Sunscreens can also benefit from the addition of DRY-FLO AF to the formulation. While improving tactile properties, DRY-FLO AF could enhance SPF, without whitening on the skin.
