Carbomer 940(CAS: 76050-42-5)

Carbomer 940 is a high-temperature stable acrylic acid polymer used as a thickening and gelling agent in cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations. It has a high molecular weight and excellent water-binding capacity.

Carbomer 940 is widely used in the production of creams, lotions, gels, and ointments for its thickening and gelling properties. It is also utilized in pharmaceuticals for its stability at high temperatures and in personal care products for its skin moisturizing benefits.

Carbomer 940 is considered safe for use in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals when used as directed. However, it is important to follow recommended usage guidelines and perform patch tests to ensure there are no adverse reactions.

Carbomer 940 should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. It should be kept in a sealed container to maintain its stability and prevent degradation. Refrigeration is not necessary but can be used for long-term storage to ensure optimal properties.
