Description
Rheomer SC Plus is a rheology modifier designed for
oil-in-water emulsions. In addition to efficient viscosity
the building, this polymer helps stabilize oil-in-water formulations
and allows the incorporation of electrolytes or electrolyte containing
ingredients, as well as color pigments, titanium
dioxide and other similar particles.
A key benefit of using Rheomer® SC-Plus in oil-in-water
emulsions are the smooth and non-sticky feel it imparts to
the skin after dry down. It meets current formulation trends
for sophisticated, multi-benefit skin and sun care products
Features:
- A hydrophobically-modified alkali-swellable emulsion polymer
Supplied as a liquid emulsion with an active polymer content of
28-30% - Preservative-free
- Typical use level: 1-6% as supplied*
Applications:
- Oil-in-water emulsions with pigments and/or optical
modifiers for skin care or color cosmetics - Skin care lotions and creams with electrolytes or
electrolyte-containing active ingredients - Sun care formulations with organic and inorganic sunscreen
Key Benefits:
- Smooth, non-sticky feel after dry down
- Provides robust stability to oil-in-water emulsions
- Allows the formulation of stable “emulsifier-free” oil-in-water systems
- Excellent suspension ability: stabilizes oil-in-water emulsions containing inorganic particles such as titanium dioxide, iron oxides, etc.
- Stabilizes electrolyte-containing oil-in-water formulations
- Easy to use liquid
- Cold-processable
