Carbomer 676, A High Viscosity Cross Linked Polymer For Bright Gels And Skincare Formulations
Product Overview:
- Carbomer 676 is a cross-linked acrylic polymer with short rheological traits and substantial viscosity.
- It works well in transparent gels, creams, and comparable systems, allowing for the production of bright, clear water-based or water-alcohol gels—proving especially fitting for exfoliating gels, scrubs, and other related items.
Performance Benefits:
- High thickening efficiency aids in developing cost-efficient formulations
- Boasts excellent thickening, suspending, and stabilizing abilities
- Successfully suspends and stabilizes insoluble substances and particles
Application Fields:
- Exfoliating gels, scrubs, moisturizing gels, along with hand, body, and facial care lotions and creams.
Usage Recommendations:
- Suggested dosage: 0.2-1.5 wt%
- While stirring, sprinkle the polymer evenly into the medium to avoid clumping and ensure complete dispersion
- The best thickening performance is attained when neutralized to a pH of 7.0-10
- After neutralization, refrain from high-speed shearing or stirring to reduce viscosity loss
