NM-Carbomer970 H
INCI Name: Carbomer
NM –Carbomer 970 H is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer, polymerized in co-solvent system of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane. It is
capable of providing high viscosity, excellent thickening and suspending performance with low-dosage. Its short flow (non-drip) properties
are ideal for applications such as clear gels, hydroalcoholic gels, creams. When neutralized by alkali it forms sparkling clear water or
hydroalcoholic gels and creams.
Features and Benefits
l Short flow properties
l High viscosity
l High suspending, thickening and stabilizing ability
l High clarity
Recommended Applications
l Hair styling gels
l Hydroalcoholic gels
l Moisturizing gels
l Bath gels
l Hand, body and face lotions
l Creams
Formula Guidelines
l Typical recommended dosage at 0.2~1.0 wt %.
l To disperse NM-Carbomer980 H 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.
After neutralization, high-shear and lasting stirring should be avoided to keep stable thickening ability.
