GelSus™️ – Liquid Thickener
Price range: ₦3,600.00 through ₦15,600.00
GelSus™️ (Acrylates Copolymer) is a rheology modifier that provides the convenience of a liquid while delivering unique benefits to surfactant-based cleansing products.
GelSus™️ polymer is a rheology modifier that provides the convenience of a liquid while delivering unique benefits to surfactant-based cleansing products. GelSus™️ acrylic emulsion polymer was specifically designed to impart efficient suspending and stabilizing, as well as thickening properties, to formulations containing high levels of surfactants.
This is not always possible with typical powdered carbomer products. Another goal in the development of the GelSus™️ product was the ability to produce very clear formulations containing high levels of surfactants.
Benefits of GelSus™️ (Acrylates Copolymer) :
- Can Suspend beads
- Gives clear formulations
- Easy-to-Use Liquid Form
- Enhanced Pearlization
- Flexible pH stability
- Excellent Compatibility
- Synergistic Thickening with Salt
- Cold-processable
- Good thickening response
- Luxurious, Silky after-feel
Inci: Acrylates Copolymer
Applications: 2-in-1 Conditioning Shampoos, Baby Shampoos, Body Washes, Face Cleansers, etc.
Appearance: White Liquid
Usage Rate: 4 to 10( Suggested 5% for formulations without salt)
Solubility: Water
pH Stability: 3 to 10 (Recommended pH 6.0 to 6.5)
Pro Tip: 1. Add GelSus™️ polymer to the water of the formulation.
2. Add primary surfactants. (Example: lauryl sulfates / lauryl ether sulfates.)
3. Neutralize with TEA to a minimum pH of 6.5.
4. Add remaining (specialty) surfactants. (Example: amphoterics.)
5. Add conditioning and Chelating ingredients. (Example: cationics, EDTA.)
6. If desired, add pearlizing ingredients. (Example: mica, EGDS, EGMS.)
7. Add fragrance, dyes, and preservatives.
8. If desired, decrease pH. (This will increase efficiency; citric acid is suggested.)
9. If desired, add sodium chloride to further increase viscosity
Storage: Store in a cool dry place. Cover the lid after every use, make sure to wipe the lid or else it would thicken, and slightly glue the lid to the bottle edges.
Ionicity: Anionic
