Formula Guidelines
l Typical recommended dosage at 0.2~1.0 wt %.
l To disperse NM-Carbomer 960 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 hydroalcoholic 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.
