Meet Stellathix, Applechem's breakthrough star-shaped polymeric thickener designed for both sulfated and sulfate-free surfactants in mass market cleansing formulations.

Leveraging advanced polymer expertise—typically exclusive to higher priced thickeners used in luxury cleansers—Stellathix is 10 times more potent than ordinary thickeners used in mass-market shampoos.

Game-Changing Thickening Efficiency

StellaThix offers 10 to 15 times more thickening efficiency compared to cheap economy thickeners like PEG-150 Diistearate in mass market sulfated shampoos, and 5 to 7 times more powerful than advanced non-ionic thickeners used in challenging sulfate-free surfactant systems.

Versatility and Compatibility

StellaThix’s unique polymer structure enables it to thicken any type of surfactant system with incredible efficiency, even when adding in ingredients that would normally destablize cleansing formulations. This efficiency creates both formulation flexibility and significant cost savings for mass market shampoos.

Eco-Friendly, Biodegradable, Non-Microplastic

Stellathix is the first non-ionic thickener on the market classified as Ultimately biodegradable by ISO 14851 standards and is not considered a microplastic according to new EU environmental regulations. It represents a giant leap in safe sustainable ingredients for mass market cleansers.
