Poloxamers are a group of synthetic, amphiphilic so-called block copolymers, which are used as anti-foaming non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers in the cosmetic industry as well as in chemical-technical areas.
They are composed of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide and are liquid, pasty, solid or powdery depending on the degree of ethoxylation.
Representatives are Polaxamer 101 to Polaxamer 407
