Cas 9003-01-4 Polyacrylic Acid Carbomer 940 Powder For Cosmetic Gel Matrix

Carbomer 940, a water-soluble polymer, occupies a place in many industries due to its excellent multifunctionality and safety. It is not just a simple chemical substance, but also an indispensable assistant in the hands of researchers. From emulsifier to stabilizer, from suspension agent to thickener, and then to gelling agent, the versatility of Carbomer 940 has made it a star product in many laboratories and industrial production lines.

Among numerous application scenarios, Carbomer 940 has gained widespread recognition for its excellent thickening effect. Its polypropylene polymer structure endows it with excellent thickening ability, which can produce efficient thickening effects even at very low doses. This feature makes Carbomer 940 particularly popular in the cosmetics manufacturing field, especially in the production of transparent gel. It can provide the required viscosity and texture for products without sacrificing transparency.

Imagine that in cosmetics such as moisturizing cream, lotion, sunscreen and hair conditioner, without the thickening effect of Carbomer 940, these products may appear too thin to achieve the ideal application effect and use feeling. With the addition of Capom 940, these products not only maintain a stable texture, but also bring a more comfortable and smooth feeling when applied.

The thickening effect of Carbomer 940 is not just limited to the surface. Its short rheological properties, high suspension capacity, high viscosity, and high clarity enable it to perform excellently in various cosmetics. Whether it is hair conditioner gel, water alcohol gel, moisturizing gel, shower gel or face cream, Carbomer 940 can bring ideal texture and appearance to products.

However, despite the many advantages of the Carbomer 940, there are still some precautions to be taken during use. Firstly, we should avoid using soluble salts, VC, and strong acid solutions with carbomer, as these substances can reduce the viscosity of carbomer. Although hyaluronic acid can be added in small amounts, be careful not to overdo it. In addition, carbomer is incompatible with phenol, cationic polymers, and high concentration electrolytes, so the presence of these components should be avoided as much as possible in the formula.

Secondly, when we add ethanol to gel products to improve their corrosion resistance and permeability, we should pay attention to the concentration of ethanol. Excessive ethanol concentration will cause gel to appear light milky white, and reduce the transparency of gel. Therefore, when adjusting the formula, it is important to carefully control the amount of ethanol added.
In addition, due to the strong hygroscopicity of carbomer, it is important to pay attention to moisture prevention during storage. When storing, choose a dry place and ensure that the packaging is well sealed to avoid exposure to air that may cause clumping.

Finally, when choosing a manufacturer for Capom, extra caution should also be exercised. A high-quality manufacturer can not only provide Carbomer 940 products with high transparency, good suspension, strong stability, and high viscosity, but also provide worry free after-sales service and guarantee. This is crucial for avoiding problems during use.

In summary, Carbomer 940 plays an important role as an excellent water-soluble polymer in the cosmetics and other industries. During use, we should pay attention to avoiding use with incompatible substances, controlling the amount of ethanol added, paying attention to moisture resistance, and selecting high-quality manufacturers. In this way, we can fully utilize the advantages of the Carbomer 940 to bring better performance and user experience to the product.
