Perhaps some people have also heard of the name carbomer, but they don’t know about carbomer. So what is the role of carbomer If you are not sure, let's take a look!
1. Uses Used as scale inhibitor and dispersant in industrial water treatment. Good compatibility. It can also be used for pre-treatment of drinking water. Used to separate red mud in the preparation of alumina. Used to refine brine in chlor-alkali plants.
2. Uses It is used to prepare leather and some high-end products' coating agents, film formers, fillers, textile sizing agents and water quality stabilizers, and also used to make polyacrylic resin emulsion paints, etc.
3. Purpose Used to fix chromium salt, assist tanning, reduce chromium pollution, etc.
4. Purpose Used to improve the processing performance of PVC
5. Uses Used as corrosion and scale inhibitor, water quality stabilizer, quenching agent, thickener, etc.
6. Purpose Used to make acrylic resin paint
7. Uses It is widely used in the decoration of light leather such as top leather, clothing leather, glove leather, etc. It can enhance the bending resistance, extensibility, light resistance, aging resistance, cold resistance and heat resistance of the leather. It is used to modify the grain surface with pigment paste. The main modification film forming agent for leather.
8. Application Carbomer is mainly used as a suspending agent or viscosity increasing agent in liquid or semi-solid pharmaceutical dosage forms. .
9. Uses It is mostly used in the manufacture of skin care products, making ointment can promote the absorption of yellow mold gray mold, and can also be used for controlled release of drugs.
Daily chemical products extended products: moisturizing creams, lotions, cleansing products, sunscreen products, alcohol-free perfumes, fragrance hair conditioners, etc. Application: used as a gel matrix, thickening and suspending and other important purposes, simple process, good stability , Applicable to a fully transparent system.
Desheng·Carbomer 940 is a synthetic high molecular polymer cross-linked with acrylic acid and allyl sucrose or allyl pentaerythritol ether. In a research work to measure the molecular weight of crosslinks, the researchers applied the theory of elastic network structure to swollen gels, and established an inverse function relationship between the elastic modulus and the molecular weight of crosslinks. Generally speaking, carbomer resins with low viscosity and low hardness have higher crosslinking molecular weight values, while carbomers with high viscosity and higher hardness have lower crosslinking molecular weights.
The above are some of the general principles of carbomer. I believe that when you meet carbomer in the future, you will know what functions this thing has and what it can be used for.
