Poly(acrylic acid)

(9003-01-4)
Poly(acrylic acid) (PAA or Carbomer) is generic name for synthetic high molecular weight polymers of acrylic acid. They may be homopolymers of acrylic acid, crosslinked with an allyl ether pentaerythritol, allyl ether of sucrose or allyl ether of propylene. In a water solution at neutral pH, PAA is an anionic polymer, i.e. many of the side chains of PAA will lose their protons and acquire a negative charge. This makes PAAs polyelectrolytes, with the ability to absorb and retain water and swell t

Viscosity controlling refers to the manipulation of the thickness or flow properties of cosmetics. According to formulation needs, viscosity modifiers can be divided into natural and synthetic categories, with natural options such as gums and waxes offering gentle control, while synthetic polymers provide precise adjustments. According to the application method, viscosity-controlling agents can be divided into emulsifiers for stabilizing oil-in-water or water-in-oil formulations, and thickeners for enhancing texture and spreadability. "Viscosity control agents" on ECHEMl mainly supply raw materials for viscosity controlling.

More Information

Viscosity refers to a product's thickness and its resistance to deformation when force is applied, influencing how it flows and feels upon application.

In cosmetics, maintaining optimal viscosity is essential for product stability. For instance, if an emulsion is too thin, there's a risk of phase separation between oil and water components, leading to an unstable formulation that requires constant agitation or becomes ineffective over time. Similarly, in products containing suspended particles like color cosmetics or mineral sunscreens, inadequate viscosity can cause the particles to settle, resulting in formulation instability.

Main factors in viscosity controlling:

•Selection of rheology modifiers

•Concentration of thickeners or thinners

•Temperature effects

•Shear rate and shear stress

•pH of the formulation
