Carbomer 940 is a gelling agent. without using heat But must use alkaline (eg. Triethanolamine or Sodium Hydroxide or AMP (2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol) ) in gelling
The type that is sold is a special grade. EasyDisperse™It can be inflated easily and quickly in the water. It doesn't have to be soaked in water for a long time. can be blended to create gel texture immediately
Properties of Carbomer:
-Can't tolerate electrolyte recommended to use Pro Polymer or Xanthan Gum which can tolerate electrolyte instead)
- Can't tolerate acidity (pH less than 5) when the formula is acidic. The gel texture will not form. If the formula requires a low pH, acidic, use it. Pro Polymer or Xanthan Gum or Hydroxyethyl Cellulose instead
- able to create gels without using heat But use the method to adjust the pH by adding alkali, such as Triethanolamine or Sodium Hydroxide Please see the procedure for use below
- can withstand heat well without changing the thickness of the gel Compared to gels created with other thickeners, which when heated above 60 degrees, the texture becomes more liquid.
How to use Carbomer:
1. Dissolve Carbomer in water (or water-phase) using the amount according to the desired gel thickness. Recommended starting at 1%
2. Add alkali, for example Triethanolamine with the ratio between Triethanolamine : Carbomer approximately 0.5:1 (using Triethanolamine 0.5% with Carbomer 1%) until 1.5:1 (use Triethanolamine 1.5% with Carbomer 1%)
3. People or blender until the gel texture is obtained.
*Other ingredients can be added either before or after gelling But if it is an ingredient that cannot tolerate acid. Should be added after gel formation because Carbomer is acidic. May destroy non-acid resistant ingredients. Therefore, these ingredients should be added. After adjusting the pH with alkali in step 2,
In case you want to get clear texture Formulated with a high proportion of ethyl alcoho, recommended. AMP (2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol) in neutralizing instead of other alkalis
Use: for all kinds of products who want to increase viscosity Add gel (thickening)
How to mix: Mix in water (water-phase) by adjusting the pH in the range 6-7 with an alkali such as Triethanolamine should not over spin 2500 rpm Because it will damage the polymer and weaken the formula.
Utilization rate: 0.5-3% (depending on the required viscosity)
Product characteristics: white powder
Solubility: can dissolve in water
Storage: For long-term storage Store at room temperaturedo not expose to sunlight and avoid moisture
INCI Name : Carbomer
Specification: 0.5% @ Viscosity 40000-60000
Specification: 1.0% @ Viscosity 45000-80000
