Carbomer 20/NM – Carbomer 20 self-wetting hydrophobically modified cross-linked acrylate copolymer
INCI
Name : Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
Carbomer 20/NM–Carbomer 20 isahydrophobically
modified cross-linked acrylate copolymer,
providing moderate-to high viscosity with smooth flow properties. It delivers excellent
thickening efficiency at a broad pH range which makes it a good choice for wide
applications. NM-Carbomer 20 self- wets and disperses quickly in minutes, which
remarkably meets formulators’ ease-use need.
