Abstract: The personal care industry continues to provide many opportunities for innovative and enabling technologies. Kline will address two topics in this presentation: we will start with an overview of ‘Innovative and Enabling Technologies’, which will provide an overview of recent developments in personal care for such technologies as specialty actives and active delivery systems.
