About

A flexible-film polyurethane copolymer made from HPMA acrylate, polytetramethylene glycol and TMDI isocyanate. Used as a long-wear film former. Cured polymer is inert; residual isocyanate control is the key safety lever.

Skin benefits

  • Film former with flexible feel
  • Stable elastic film on skin or nails
  • Long-wear cosmetic durability

Known concerns

  • TMDI is an isocyanate — residuals must be controlled
  • Limited public consumer-safety data on this exact copolymer
  • Polyurethane class — purity-grade dependent
