nylon is a commonly known synthetic material used as a fiber in eyelash lengtheners and mascaras, and as a molding compound to shape cosmetics. nylon gives bulk to a formulation and, when appropriate, provides opacifying properties. It can cause allergic reactions. | [IARC]

NYLON 6 is a type of synthetic polymer linked by amide groups –NH.CO–. NYLON 6 polymers can be made by copolymerization of a molecule containing two amine groups with one containing two carboxylic acid groups.
| [Synthesis]
Nylon 6 is synthesized from caprolactam via ring-opening polymerization; in industrial production, water serves as an initiator to hydrolyze caprolactam into 6-aminocaproic acid in situ, which then acts as a monomer and acid catalyst for the polymerization[1][2]. | [Solubility in organics]
