tego Carbomer 750 HD Easy-to-process cross-linked polyacrylic acid copolymer TEGO Carbomer 750 HD is a cross-linked polyacrylic acid copolymer manufactured in a solvent system with very low toxic potential. The high density powder disperses well in water and features a fast processing time without lump formation. Due to its high electrolyte tolerance and good suspending properties, the product is well suited for use in a variety of surfactant systems and clear gels. Evonik delivers: 1. High density and efficiency 2. Easy handling and processing 3. Electrolyte tolerance
Benefits Excellent thickening efficiency High suspending capability Easy dispersibility Electrolyte tolerance Emulsion stabilization Long viscous flow Brilliant clarity in gel systems Easy handling and low processing time Properties Low dusting Higher bulk density (lower shipping volume) Quickly and fully dispersible No lump formation Based on class 3 solvents according to international standards (n-heptane and ethyl acetate) INCI: Acrylates /C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer Page 2/8
