GelMaker® PH

Description: Ready-to-use anionic polymer in powder form for creating clear aqueous gels without the need for pH neutralization. The polymer works as a thickener and stabilizer in emulsions and surfactant systems and offers excellent particle suspension power. Appearance: White powder. pH as supplied: 4 - 5.5 (when prepared as 1.5% aqueous gel). Dispersible in cold and hot water.

CAS: 111286-86-3

INCI Name: Polyacrylate crosspolymer-6

Use: GelMaker PH can be used in cold or hot solutions. For making clear gels, sprinkle the powder over the aqueous phase and mix at low speed (500-1500rpm) while adding additional ingredients (e.g. minerals) for about 5-10 minutes to allow it to hydrate. For making cream gels, sprinkle the powder over the hot or cold oil phase. Typical use level is 0.5 - 5%. Gels are stable between pH 2 and 8. For external use only.

Applications: Clear gels, creams, lotions, transparent hair gels, sun care products
