The disclosed technology relates to structurant polymers based on polyure- thane/polyurea chemistry, which efficiently thicken or gel (i.e., provide structure to) oils and oil mixtures. The disclosed technology further relates to structurant polymers based on polyurethane/polyurea chemistry that are oil soluble or oil dispersible and that provide beneficial properties, such as, for example, desirable clarity and/or feel. In addition, the technology relates to cosmetically and/or household acceptable formu- lations containing an oil as well as a structurant polymer based on polyurethane/poly- urea chemistry. |
