High clarity traditional carbomer 980HC
INCI
Name: Carbomer
NM-Carbomer 980HC is a
cross-linked polyacrylate polymer. HC means very High Clarity. It is used as a
high-efficient rheology modifier, capable of providing high viscosity,
excellent clarity. When neutralized by alkali it forms sparkling clear water or
hydroalcoholic gels and creams.

Formula Guidelines
l
Typical
recommended dosage at 0.2~1.0 wt %.
l
To
disperse NM-Carbomer940 completely, it should be slowly and carefully sprinkled
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.
l
The
ideal viscosity can be achieved at pH ranges of 5.0~10.0 when neutralized; In a
hydoalcoholic system, a correct neutralizer must be chosen carefully based on
the amount of alcohol to be gelled.
l
After
neutralization, high-shear and lasting stirring should be avoided to keep
stable thickening ability.
