Carbomer 940, also known as Carbopol 940 or Carboxypoly-methylene, is a white powder that is a synthetic polymer of acrylic acid. It is used in many industries as a thickening, dispersing, suspending, emulsifying, stabilizing, binding, and film-forming agent: Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics, Hair products, Skincare products, and Bath products
Grand Carbomer is an important thickener. It is a high polymer crosslinked by acrylic acid or acrylate and allyl ether. Its components include polyacrylic acid (homopolymer) and acrylic acid / C10-30 alkyl acrylate (copolymer). As a water-soluble rheological modifier, it has high thickening and suspension properties and is widely used in coatings, textiles, pharmaceuticals, construction, detergents, and cosmetics.
GRAND Carbomer 940 is a crosslinked polyacrylate polymer with a strong moisturizing ability, acting as a high-efficient & low-dosage thickener and suspending agent. It can be neutralized by alkali to form a clear gel. Once its carboxyl group is neutralized, the molecule chain expands extremely, and viscidity comes up due to the mutual exclusion of negative charge. It can enhance yield value and rheology of liquid substances, thus it is easy to get insoluble ingredients(granual, oil drop) suspended at low dosage. It is widely used in O/W lotion and cream as a favorable suspending agent.
1. Efficient thickening, suspending, and stabilizing ability at low dosage
2. Outstanding short flow (non-drip) property
3. High clarity
4. Resist temperature effect on viscosity
1. Clear hydroalcoholic gel.
2. Lotion and cream
3. Hair styling gel
4. Shampoo
5. Body wash
Following operations are forbidden, otherwise result in loss of thickening ability:
– Lasting stir or high-shear stir after neutralization
– Lasting UV irradiation
– Combine with electrolytes
Grand Carbomer 996 is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer. It is used as a high-efficient rheology modifier, capable of providing high viscosity, excellent thickening and suspending performance with low-dosage. It is also widely used in O/W lotions and creams as a favorable suspending agent. Highly tolerated in alcohol system, it’s the most popular thickening agent for hand sanitizers.
Grand Carbomer 676 polymer is a highly crosslinked polyacrylic acid polymer. It has short flow characteristics and relatively high viscosity performance. It is recommended for use in automatic dish care, hard surface cleaners, home care cleaning systems, gelled fuels and other common industrial systems. It has good viscosity stability in the presence of chlorine bleach and has good efficacy in high pH systems.
Grand Carbomer 981 is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer. It performs the same as Uni-Carbomer 941, but it is polymerized in co-solvent system of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane.
Grand Carbomer 990 is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer, polymerized in co-solvent system of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane. It is used as a high-efficient rheology modifier, capable of providing high viscosity, excellent thickening and suspending performance with low-dosage. It is also widely used in O/W lotions and creams as a favorable suspending agent. When neutralized by alkali it forms sparkling clear water or hydroalcoholic gels and creams.

Grand Carbomer 934 is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer. It has short flow property and offers excellent thickening for opaque gels, creams, lotions and suspensions.
Grand Carbomer 941 is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer with outstanding long-flow property in mucilage. It offers excellent clarity in gels and gives permanent emulsions and suspensions at low viscosity, even with ionic systems.
Grand Carbomer 940HC is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer. It is used as a highly efficient rheology modifier, capable of providing high viscosity, excellent thickening, and suspending performance with low dosage. It is also widely used in O/W lotions and creams as a favorable suspending agent. When neutralized by alkali it forms sparkling clear water or hydroalcoholic gels and creams.
Grand Carbomer 2020 is a cross-linked polyacrylic acid copolymer processed in a cosolvent system of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane. It has a long viscous flow property, imparts excellent thickening and suspending capability, especially in surfactant systems, and forms sparkling clarity gels. Grand Carbomer 2020 has the ability to wet quickly but hydrate slowly, uncoiling at a relatively lower rate. This feature makes it easy to disperse and provides easily made dispersions in water less susceptible to lumping and easier to pump and handle in the process due to its low dispersion viscosity before neutralization.
Grand Carbomer 20 is a hydrophobically modified cross-linked acrylate copolymer. It self-wets and disperses quickly in minutes, which remarkably meets formulators’ ease-of-use needs. It delivers excellent thickening efficiency at a wide pH range, which makes it a good choice for wide applications. In surfactant systems, it performs outstandingly in suspending and stabilizing insoluble substances like beads, microcapsules, exfoliants, silicones, and oils. Grand Carbomer 20 also provides good electrolyte tolerance and unique sensory benefits in formulations. Even at high concentrations, Grand Carbomer 20 maintains excellent clarity.
Grand Carbomer 980HC is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer. It is used as a highly efficient rheology modifier, capable of providing high viscosity and excellent clarity. When neutralized by alkali, it forms sparkling clear water or hydroalcoholic gels and creams.
Grand Carbomer 934P is a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer. It has a short flow property and offers excellent thickening for toothpaste, opaque gels, creams, lotions, and suspensions.
Grand™ EC 600 is a new type of anionic acrylamide water-dispersed copolymer, suitable for acidic formulation systems as a thickener.
