INCI NAME |
Carbomer 980 |
|
|
DEFINITION |
Quick dissolving polyvinyl carboxy polymer crosslinked with ethers of pentaerythritol. Used as a viscosity enhancer or gelling agent primarily in systems where clarity or viscosity is required. Has quick hydration technology and improved wetting properties. White powder. Soluble in water. pH value: 2.7-3.3 (0.5% solution at 25ºC/77ºF). Viscosity: 54,000-60,000 cps (0.5% solution) and 18,000-25,000 cps (0.2% solution). |

|
USAGE |
Typical use level 0.1-0.5% depending on the type of formulation desired viscosity. Must be mixed and hydrated but requires much less stirring and dissolves much quicker (<10 min) than regular carbomer. Increasing the pH to >6.0, gives a gel structure. Neutralization can be carried out with inorganic bases such as NaOH or KOH or triethanolamine (TEA). |

|
APPLICATIONS |
Gel-creams, hair gels, and other gels, lotions, creams. |
