The main function of carbomer is to thicken - it can produce a wide range of viscosity and fluidity; Suspension - Permanently suspending insoluble components in the system; Emulsification - plays an emulsifying and stabilizing role in the oil/water phase.
Characteristics of the Kapom 941GE model:
Capable of producing low viscosity permanent emulsions and suspensions, resulting in good colloidal transparency and long rheological properties.
Characteristics of Kapom 934GE, Kapom 934P, and Kapom 974P models:
Good thickening effect, strong shear resistance, permanent stability at high viscosity, and short flowability in aqueous solution, making it suitable for use in cream cosmetics. Among them, 934P, 974P, and this model are more suitable for pharmaceutical preparations due to the presence of trace residual solvents or the use of non-toxic solvents for synthesis.
Characteristics of Kapom 940GE, Kapom 940P, Kapom 971P, and Kapom 980GE models:
It has high thickening effect and can produce clear and transparent water or alcohol hydrocolloid with very short rheological property. Among them, 980 and this model are synthesized with ethyl acetate/cyclohexane mixed solvent and are very suitable for various advanced cosmetics.
Characteristics of Kapom 1342GE and Kapom 1382P models:
In systems containing ions, it has good ion resistance and is very suitable for daily chemical and pharmaceutical fields.
Purpose:
Carbomer has excellent thickening, gel, adhesion, emulsification, suspension and film forming properties. As thickeners and emulsifiers, they have the following applications in the pharmaceutical industry: 1. Controlled release drugs made from sustained-release materials, such as ascorbic acid, aspirin, lithium carbonate, atropine sulfate, procaine hydrochloride, chlorpheniramine, quinine sulfate, theophylline, etc. 2. The application in the formulation of topical drugs, as the carrier matrix, is used to make ointment, suppository, cream, gel, lotion, etc. 3. The use of the gel, adhesive and film-forming properties of this product in the application of bioadhesion, as the carrier matrix and bioadhesion made of drugs, has a long retention time in the tissue mucosa, improving the bioavailability of drugs, such as taking mucosa as the target of drug administration, including eye, nasal, intestinal, vaginal and rectal mucosa. 4. By utilizing the suspension ability of this product, insoluble components can be effectively suspended, forming a uniform dispersion system. When applied to oral suspensions, it is safe and effective, odorless, stable, and improves bioavailability.
