INCI Name:Acrylates/Beheneth-25 methacrylate copolymer
NM-Carbomer Aqua 10 is an anionic hydrophobically modified alkali-soluble,acrylic polymer emulsion (HASE) with unusually high aqueous thickening and stabilizing efficiency. This thickener is a liquid, cold-processable product that instantaneously thickens upon neutralization providing ease of handling and increased manufacturing efficiency.
It is offered at 30% solids and specifically imparts efficient thickening properties, to formulations containing anionic, nonionic, and zwitterionic surfactants. NM-Carbomer Aqua 10 works synergistically with electrolytes and is an easy-to-use, cold-processable liquid.

Formula Guidelines
The NM-Carbomer
Aqua 10 is compatible with surfactants, solvents, oils and salts commonly found
in cosmetic and toiletry products. These products undergo instantaneous thickening
when neutralized with base.
