(Benzene free)
Benzene
Cyclohexane & ethyl acetate
Carbomer 934P / 974P - High purity oral pharmaceutical grade for formulations.
Advantages
Thickning efficiency High viscosities at low concentrations.
Uniform performance Reproducibility unattainable with natural gums.
Safety Years of successful use of carbomers.
Temperature stability Extended up to 750C heating or cooling
Unaffected by aging Excellent self life.
Microbial resistance Resists bacterial attack and does not support mold growth
Versatility Although primarily used in aqueous systems with neutralization. It can also be used in solvent systems, with or without neutralization.
Elegance Smooth and luxurious feeling.

Chilling Properties
On refrigeration CARBOMER gel can retaining the cool temperature level for 48 hours to 72 hours. Low temperature necessary for vaccines, toxoids, insulin and human albumin can be store in pre-refrigerated CARBOMER gel, making it as a suitable medium for transporting these medicines.
