Carbopol® ETD 2020

Carbopol® ETD 2020 polymer, from Lubrizol, is an easy-to-disperse, white powder, cross-linked polyacrylic acid copolymer polymerized in a toxicologically-preferred cosolvent system specifically designed for thickening surfactant systems.

Product Description

    This speciality ingredient delivers excellent thickening efficiency and suspending capability, long viscous flow, and sparkling clarity in gel systems. It is particularly suitable for clear gels, hydro-alcoholic gels, surfactant systems (specialty shampoos, styling formulations and cleansing products) and high electrolyte systems such as aloe gels.

    Key benefits include:

    • Easy processing for high polymer solids dispersions

    • Easy-to-disperse technology reduces lumping for ease of dispersion in water

    • High compatibility with anionic surfactants

    • High resistance to dissolved electrolytes enabling formulation flexibility

    • Low dispersion viscosity allows for easier pumping and handling before neutralisation

    • Rich creamy feel in final formulation
