Used as a secondary surfactant to boost foam stability, reduce skin irritation caused by anionic surfactants, and build viscosity in liquid formulations. 2. Functional Detergent Builders and Additives
) and use water-soluble Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA/PVOH) films. Formulations must utilize high concentrations of organic solvents (Glycerin, Monopropylene Glycol) to keep surfactants in solution without dissolving the enclosing PVA film prematurely from the inside.
