Carbomer 2020 (INCI Name: Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer) is a cross-linked polyacrylic acid copolymer. It has long viscous flow property, imparts excellent thickening and suspending capability especially in surfactant systems and hydro-alcoholic system, forms sparkling clarity gels. This property makes the product uniquely suitable for sanitizing gels. hydroalcoholic gel, antibacterial gel hand, hand gel sanitizer, sanitizer gel with alcohol. Even at high concentration, Carbomer2020 maintains excellent clarity. Also, Carbomer2020 is easy to disperse due to its low dispersion viscosity before neutralization.

Features and Benefits

- Easy to disperse

- Suitable for surfactant system and high electrolyte rate system

- Excellent performance of stabilizing and suspending insoluble ingredients

-Outstanding clarity

Recommended Applications

- hydroalcoholic gel

- antibacterial gel hand

- hand gel sanitizer

- sanitizer gel with alcohol

- Shampoos and cleaning products

- High electrolyte system (Aloe gels, etc.)

Formula Guidelines

- Typical use 0.2 to 1.5 wt%.

- Dispersions made with Carbomer2020 may appear to be non-uniform, with visible aggregate particles which may settle into a separate phase when not mixed. In order to achieve a homogeneous dispersion without phase separation, it is recommended to prepare with dispersion with a minimum polymer concentration of 2% by weight.

- In systems with high concentration of surfactants, neutralization is preferred to be carried out before addition of surfactants. Otherwise the high concentration of surfactants especially catatonics and secondary surfactants would prevent the uncoiling of the polymer, affecting the viscosity, yield value and clarity of the end product.
