NM-PA 6 Pre-Neutralised Polyacrylate Crosspolymer
A pre-neutralised anionic associative polymer that thickens, suspends, emulsifies and films. It arrives neutralised, so the neutralisation step comes out of the process entirely.
Product name: NM-PA 6
INCI: Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-6
Appearance: White powder
Neutralisation: Not required
Sodium chloride tolerance: Up to 10 wt%
Effective pH range: 2-10
Processing: Suitable for both hot and cold processes
Packaging: 20 kg per carton with PE liner
It works through two mechanisms at once, electrostatic repulsion and hydrophobic association, which is why it holds viscosity where electrolyte would thin a conventional carbomer. It gives clear gels and tolerates AHA, vitamins and other actives.
