- Key Attributes
iGel 940 is a crosslinked polyacylate polymer with strong moisturizing ability, acting as high-efficient & low-dosage thickener and suspending agent.; It can be neutralized by alkali to form clear gel. Once its carboxyl group is neutralized, molecule chain expands extremely and viscidity comes up, due to mutually exclusion of negative charge.; It can enhance yield value and rheology of liquid substances, thus it is easy to get insoluble ingredients (granola, oil drop) suspended at low dosage.; It is widely used in O/W lotion and cream as favorable suspending agent.
