Uni-Carbomer 20 / Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Short Description:

Uni-Carbomer 20 is a hydrophobically modified cross-linked acrylate copolymer. It self wets and disperses quickly in minutes, which remarkably meets formulators’ ease-use need. It delivers excellent thickening efficiency at a wide PH range which makes it a good choice for wide applications. In surfactant systems, it performs outstandingly to suspend and stabilize insoluble substance like beads, microcapsules, exfoliants, silicones and oils. Uni-Carbomer 20 also provides good electrolyte tolerance and unique sensory benefits in formulations. Even at high concentration, Uni-Carbomer 20 maintains excellent clarity.
