Abstract:The cosmetic industry
has recognized an increasing demand for environmentally
sustainable solutions due to the classification of certain commonly
used components as bioaccumulative and hazardous. The European Union
has implemented restrictions on the utilization of some components,
including silicones, which limit their concentration. The present
investigation intends to find new solutions for cosmetic formulations
by combining molecular dynamics simulations with an array of experimental
techniques to fully ch… Show more
