Low Residue 9003-01-4 Carbopol Carbomer in Cosmetics 990
Transparent
EP990
INCI Name & CAS No.
Carbomer 9003-01-4
Description
Carbomer is a crosslinked polyacylate polymer with strong
moisturizing ability, acting as high-efficient & low-dosage
thickener and suspending agent. It can be neutralized by alkali to
form clear gel. Once its carboxyl group is neutralized, molecule
chain expands extremely and viscidity comes up, due to mutually
exclusion of negative charge. It can enhance yield value and
rheology of liquid substances, thus it is easy to get insoluble
ingredients (granual, oil drop) suspended at low dosage. It is
widely used in O/W lotion and cream as favorable suspending agent.

Properties
Resist temperature effect to viscosity, High clarity,
high-efficient thickening, suspending and stabilizing ability at
low dosage and outstanding short flow (non-drip) property
Applications
- Hair styling gels
- Hydroalcoholic gels
- Moisturizing gels
- Bath gels
- Hand, body and face lotions
- Creams
Formula Guidelines
Typical recommended dosage at 0.2-1.0 wt %. To disperse Carbomer940
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. 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.
