Fluorochemical resin complexes for use solvent repellent hand creams

Abstract
A fluorochemical (FC)-resin complex was developed for use in protective hand creams. Hand creams incorporating this new technology effectively repel solvents and resist their penetration into the skin. The in vitro studies conducted to determine the efficacy of the formulated FC-resin complex include solvent penetration through treated filter paper, solvent repellancy on treated pigskin and penetration of radio tagged sodium lauryl sulfate through treated hairless mouse skin. In vivo studies demonstrate that this new technology does aid in reducing irritation caused by solvent contact.
