English term or phrase: detackifying material
"Preferably, a detackifying material should be incorporated into the composition. When emulsions are applied to the skin, they break apart."
Por ejemplo, el talco es un "detackifier", evita o reduce la sensación pegajosa. Pero, ¿qué palabra puedo usar en español? "despegajosificante" no me suena nada bien...;-)
Gracias

antiadherente
Explanation:
Yo diría antiadherente. Mira estos párrafos:

Composition: The most widely used detackifier is talc. The chemical formula of pure talc is magnesium silicate Mg3SiO4O10(OH)2. Talc is a soft mineral with a relatively water-hating surface. These two attributes, softness and hydrophobicity are easy to observe when one pinches some talcum powder and then releases it onto the surface of water in a sink. In addition to talc, there are a number of proprietary chemical products that also are marketed as detackifiers. The common feature of these chemicals is that they are weak polyelectrolytes (sometimes cationic), and they have a tendency to form a film at the surface of tacky or hydrophobic suspended matter.

Function: Reduce the tackiness of pitch-like materials or stickies so that they have less tendency to form agglomerates or deposit onto papermaking equipment or create spots in the product
