Industry-standard rheology modifier with short flow and high viscosity performance

Carbopol® 2984 polymer is a white powder, cross-linked polyacrylic acid polymer that is polymerized in a toxicologically-preferred cosolvent system. It is our highest crosslinked powdered Carbopol polymer and provides very low viscosity at use levels less than 0.2% and very high viscosity at use levels over 0.5%. It exhibits short flow properties and a creamy sensory profile, and is therefore well suited for use as a rheology modifier in lotions, creams and styling gels.
