Carbomer 940
SINOBIO
29121900
Carbomer 940 (CAS No. 9007-20-9) is an important acrylic polymer with thickening, suspending, emulsifying, and stabilizing properties. It is widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products.
Chemical Name: Carboxyvinyl Copolymer (Cross-linked Polyacrylic Acid Resin).
Molecular Structure: Formed by cross-linking acrylic acid or an acrylic ester with an allyl ether, the molecule contains 56%-68% carboxyl groups and is weakly acidic.
Appearance: White, loose powder, hygroscopic, and slightly odorous.
Solubility: Easily soluble in water, ethanol, and glycerin, forming a transparent gel upon neutralization.
pH: A 0.5% aqueous dispersion has a pH of 2.8-3.2. Neutralization with an alkaline agent (such as triethanolamine or sodium hydroxide) to a pH of 5.0-9.0 is required to form a gel.
Carbomer 940 is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer that serves as a highly efficient rheology modifier in personal care formulations, particularly in gels and creams. This versatile ingredient excels at delivering high viscosity, superior thickening, and robust suspending capabilities even at low concentrations. Its unique short-flow (non-drip) characteristic makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, including transparent gels, hydroalcoholic gels, and creams. When neutralized with alkaline agents, Carbomer 940 transforms into sparklingly clear water-based or hydroalcoholic gels and creams, enhancing the aesthetic appeal and functionality of the final products.
Beyond personal care, Carbomer 940 (often referred to generically as Carbopol in industrial contexts) is widely recognized as an effective scale inhibitor in industrial circulating cooling water systems. It demonstrates excellent compatibility with various water treatment chemicals, making it a preferred choice for preventing scale formation and maintaining system efficiency. Additionally, Carbomer 940 finds application in pre-drinking water treatment processes, where its ability to control particulate matter and improve water clarity is highly valued.
In the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, Carbomer 940 stands out as an exceptional suspension agent, emulsifier, and transparent base material for high-end products. Its water-soluble nature and thickening efficiency make it the most effective choice among water-soluble thickeners available. Furthermore, Carbomer 940 is extensively used in toothpaste formulations, where it functions as a thickener and binder, enhancing the texture and stability of the product. It can also be combined with other polymers to achieve synergistic effects and tailored performance characteristics.

* Significantly thickens at extremely low concentrations (0.1%-2%), resulting in a shear-thinning gel that facilitates processing.
* Widely used in products such as hand sanitizers, cosmetic gels, shampoos, and body washes, improving product thixotropy and storage stability.
* Used as a suspension stabilizer in shampoos and body washes to prevent particle settling.
* In the pharmaceutical field, as a base for topical preparations (such as eye drops and topical gels), it requires a neutralizer to adjust the pH to a range of 5-9.
* Provides stability for oil-in-water emulsions, suitable for creams, lotions, and suspensions.
* Used as a bioadhesive in controlled-release matrix materials and retardants.
* Used as a rheology modifier for water-based coatings, a gelling agent for alkaline battery anodes, and a gelling agent for solid fuel adhesives. *Used as a scale inhibitor and dispersant in industrial water treatment to prevent scaling in circulating cooling water systems.


*Efficient Thickening: Significant thickening effect is achieved with an addition level of 0.1% to 2%.
*Transparent Gel Matrix: After neutralization, it forms a highly transparent gel, suitable for transparent cosmetic formulations.
*Heat and Light Resistance: The gel matrix exhibits excellent resistance to heat, light, and microbial contamination.
*Low Irritation: After neutralization, the finished gel is physiologically inert and meets the requirements of the Cosmetic Safety Technical Specifications.
*Carbomer 940: Short rheology, high viscosity, medium clarity, suitable for gels and creams.
*Carbomer 941: Long rheology, low viscosity, high clarity, suitable for creams and lotions.
*Carbomer 980: High viscosity, suitable for crystallized, clear gels.
*Carbomer 1342/1382: Long rheology, medium viscosity, high clarity, suitable for clear gels and high-electrolyte systems.
Standard package: 25kg/ drum or bag.
Sample is also avaliable, provide customized package for different quantity.
Delivery time: 7-15 working days after receiving your deposit or according to clients requirement.
Our advantages: exporting directly which obeys China Customs, with sufficient capacity, stable supply and rigid quality control.
