NM-Carbomer 941 is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer with outstanding long-flow property in mucilage. It offers excellent clarity in gels and gives permanent emulsions and suspensions at low viscosity, even with ionic systems.
Features and Benefits
-
Outstanding long flow property
-
Highly efficient at moderate and low concentration.
-
High clarity
Recommended Applications
-
Topical lotions, creams and gels
-
Clear gels
-
Moderately ionic systems
Formula Guidelines
-
Typical recommended dosage at 0.2-1.5%.
-
To disperse NM-Carbomer941 completely, it should be slowly and carefully sifted to dispersion medium while the mix is stirred rapidly to avoid formation of lumps; Extremely high shear rate mixer should be carefully employed to avoid viscosity loss.
-
The ideal viscosity can be achieved at ph ranges of 5.0~10.0; To achieve maximum thickening, NM-Carbomer941 should be neutralized; in a hydoalcoholic system, a correct neutralizer must be chosen carefully based on the amount of alcohol to be gelled.
-
After neutralization, high-shear and lasting stirring should be avoided to keep stable thickening ability.
