How Is Oil-based Nail Polish Made?

As a fashion item, nail polish has become a part of popular culture. It is not only a cosmetic, but also a display of self-expression and fashion attitude. As the fashion industry pays more attention to details, the colors and designs of nail polish are becoming more and more diverse, which can be perfectly matched with various costumes and makeup, and become the finishing touch of the overall look. Whether on social media or on the streets, you can see all kinds of creative nail art designs, which not only attract people's attention, but also become the vane of fashion trends. Therefore, the popularity of nail polish is not only because of its beauty and variability, but also because it represents a life attitude and fashion spirit.

1. The main ingredients of oil-based nail polish

The raw materials commonly used in the industrial production of nail polish include:

1. Solvents: including acetone, ethyl acetate (commonly known as banana water), ethanol, ether, etc. These solvents help dilute and flow nail polish, making it easier to apply on nails.

2. Resin: Resin is one of the main components of nail polish, responsible for forming a coating and providing gloss and curing functions. Common resins include acrylate copolymers, polyester resins, etc.

3. Pigments: Pigments give nail polish its color. Common pigments include metallic pigments and organic pigments. Metallic pigments are often used to create metallic, glitter, and pearlescent effects, while organic pigments can achieve a wider range of color options.

4. Additives: Additives are used to improve the performance and texture of nail polish. Common additives include preservatives, stabilizers, thickeners, luminants, etc.

5. Nitrocellulose: As a film-forming material, nitrocellulose is the core part of nail polish and is widely used because of its excellent performance in hardness, adhesion, wear resistance, etc.

6. Plasticizers: Plasticizers are chemicals that help maintain the flexibility of polish and reduce the possibility of cracks or chips.

7. Pearlescent materials: Nail polishes with glitter or glitter effects may contain pearlescent minerals such as titanium dioxide or mica powder.

2. Mixing process of oil-based nail polish

1. Raw material selection: The main raw materials of oil-based nail polish include solvents (such as acetone, ethyl acetate, etc.), resins (such as polyester resins, polyketone resins, polyacrylates, etc.), pigments (metal powders, inorganic pigments and organic pigments, etc.), as well as diluents and additives.

2. Formula design: According to market demand and brand positioning, formulate the formula of oil-based nail polish you need. Adjust the ratio of resin, pigment and solvent to achieve the ideal product effect.

3. Mixing and stirring: Pour various raw materials into the stainless steel mixing tank for nail polish according to the requirements of the formula design and stir. The purpose of stirring is to fully mix the various raw materials and ensure the quality and stability of the nail polish. The stirring time and speed need to be determined according to your specific raw material properties and production process.

4. Quality inspection: Sampling is carried out from the mixture, and the color, aroma, solid content, safety and other aspects of the mixture are inspected to complete the final step of nail polish processing to ensure stable product quality.
