Novemer™ Polymers
Novemer™ polymers are multifunctional polymers that offer improved efficiency as emulsifiers, thickeners and stabilizers with ease of use and unique sensory properties. These inverse emulsion polymers are synthesized within an internal water phase that is pre-emulsified into a carrier oil and partially neutralized prior to polymerization. This gives the benefit of rapid thickening and rheological modification by simply adding the material to water with agitation.
