NM-Carbomer 30 Carbomer
INCI Name: Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Cross polymer
NM-Carbomer 30 is a white powder, cross-linked homopolymer of polyacrylic acid that is polymerized in a toxicologically preferred cosolvent system. It offers good electrolyte tolerance, high thickening performance in a broad pH range, and a rich, distinct sensory in challenging skin care formulations. NM-Carbomer 30 allows the formulator to achieve desired rheological and aesthetic properties in the presence of electrolytes or acidic actives required for consumer products.
