Home, Lifestyle and Personal Care

Evonik Industries products are ubiquitous and greatly facilitate everyday life. Among the most conspicuous examples are our superabsorbents for use in baby diapers and feminine hygiene products. These polymers, initially in the form of a powder, swell on contact with liquid to form a gel that encapsulates and stores the bound liquid even under pressure.

Products from Evonik are firmly entrenched in the cosmetics industry. Lipsticks, for example, have developed into a high-chem product to which we make significant contributions. Organosilicones from Evonik ensure brilliant, kiss-proof colors and a pleasant feel, even for sensitive lips. Lipstick is prevented from smudging by silica developed by Evonik, a versatile raw material for cosmetic and body care products.
