Hot summer, beauty sunscreen products into the sales season. It is worth noting that sunscreen, as a segment of the beauty market, has indeed been growing in recent years and is expected to develop into a just-needed category. A number of beauty companies have launched new sunscreen products to seize the sunscreen track, and some companies have expanded their business layout to the field of children's sunscreen. The foothold of sunscreen products is to block the summer sun, with the summer attack superimposed travel season, the demand for sunscreen cosmetics has been detonated, and the market penetration and prosperity continue to rise.

According to Euromonitor data, from 2006 to 2019, China's sunscreen market grew from 3.1 billion yuan to 13.5 billion yuan, with a compound annual growth rate of 12%. Affected by the epidemic in previous years, the growth rate of the sunscreen market slowed to 6.7% to 14.4 billion yuan, and it has increased by 24.4 billion yuan by 2024. As the demand for sunscreen products and the size of the market increase, its high-end trend will become more obvious. In the past, the main claim of sunscreen was to block the direct sun in the summer, but most sunscreen products now use a marketing campaign to promote year-round protection, that is, to block the cumulative damage caused by UV rays in the sun. The additional functions of sunscreen products are also gradually increasing. For example, Lancome's pure sunscreen, flower Xizi's Xiao Dai Umbrella sunscreen and other main makeup primer, isolation cream, sunscreen three-in-one effect. As the consumption threshold is not high and gradually become just needed products, sunscreen products have become a new direction for the development of explosive products. With the continuous progress of technology and changing consumer demand, the research and development and production of sunscreen cosmetics will face new challenges and opportunities, and the market competition will be more intense.

We, Anhui Newman Fine Chemicals Co., LTD., as the top leading manufacturer of carbomers and acrylates copolymer, has been focusing on introducing safer carbomers to the market to meet the diverse needs of the market.

Our key technology and carbomer and related polymers products have created a positive global impact on health care, personal care and other industrial fields. 

Except for tradition NM-Carbomer 990, 996, 941, 934 etc., we launched Polymer emulsifier NM-Carbomer TR-1 and TR-2, being non-ethoxylated polymer to simplify the formulation of mild, oil-in-water emulsions great for sunscreen formulations.

NM-Carbomer TR-1 and TR-2 are cross-linked copolymer of acrylic acid and a hydrophobic C10-30 alkyl acrylate co-monomer. Thy are a versatile, non-ethoxylated polymer designed to create stable and mild oil-in-water emulsions at low use levels. They are great choice for use in many skin care formulations. NM-Carbomer TR- 1 and TR-2 provide low viscosity emulsions particularly suitable for sunsreen skin care applications via spray mechanism. 

Features and Benefits  

l  Allowing  for cold or hot processing enabling flexible processing requirements

l  Emulsify the highest levels of oil, up to 50% by weight, within a pH range of 4.0 - 5.0

l  Enable formulation of water-resistant oil-in-water emulsions because formulations do not require the use of surfactants

l  Enhance sensory - light, refreshing and light residue

l  No HLB calculation required when formulating

l  PEG-free

In particular, NM-Carbomer TR-1, NM-Carbomer TR-2, are non-ethoxylated polymers that simplify the preparation of mild oil-in-water emulsions, and are ideal for the preparation of sunscreens. Here are the advantages of NM-Carbomer TR-1 and TR-2 for skin care: ions in the skin will touch the release of oil droplets contained in the hair lotion. The oil droplets bind to the skin surface to form a lipophilic film. In the absence of a surfactant, the film cannot be emulsified or washed off. This property of NM-Carbomer TR-1 and TR-2 is particularly beneficial when used in the formulation of sunscreen products.
