Carbopol® Ultrez 10 polymer
is a cross-linked polyacrylic acid polymer that provides efficient rheology modification (thickening) with enhanced self-wetting for ease of use. Carbopol Ultrez 10 polymer can be used for applications requiring easy processing and a “carbomer” INCI name, such as clear gels, hydroalcoholic gels, lotions and creams.
Key Benefits of Carbopol Ultrez 10 Polymer
Exceptional Processing:
The unique structure of this Carbopol Ultrez 10 polymer allows for
- rapid wetting
- improved swelling time
- no need for agitation.
The processing benefit is offered without compromising the thickening, suspension and texture properties provided by the polymer.
Carbopol Ultrez 10 polymer provides high viscosity with short flow properties along with exceptional stabilization and suspension properties. These properties are provided effectively across a broad pH range, providing formulation flexibility across many different applications.
Multipurpose Performance: Carbopol Ultrez 10 polymer exhibits excellent clarity in gel formulations and also provides exceptional thickening and stabilization performance in emulsion systems.
