SYNTHALEN® CH is a thickening agent. SYNTHALEN® CH is a benzene-free synthetic polymer that is well known and widely used in the cosmetic industry as a thickener and suspending agent due to its safety and versatility. SYNTHALEN® CH dispersions have a high viscosity and a high clarity (see Fig. 1 and 2). As a result, it is ideal for creating sparkling and clear gels as well as stabilizing emulsions. If the proper neutralizing agent is used, very clear gels can be obtained in the presence of high amounts of organic solvents (e.g., ethanol). The typical percentage of use ranges between 0.1 and 1.5 percent, depending on the type of formulation and final desired viscosity. SYNTHALEN® CH is a 3V Sigma product.

SYNTHALEN CR is a synthetic cationic polymer that can be used as a thickening, suspending, and conditioning agent in cosmetic applications. Synthalen CR is well-tolerated by a wide range of cationic and nonionic surfactants. A cationic thickener.

Synthalen® K is a synthetic polymer that is well-known and widely used in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries as a thickener and suspending agent due to its safety and versatility. It is virtually solvent-free because it is produced using a proprietary manufacturing technique (50 ppm max of methylene chloride). Synthalen® K dispersions are distinguished by their high viscosity and clarity. It is ideal for creating sparkling and clear gels as well as stabilising emulsions for cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. Synthalen K is a 3V Sigma product.

SYNTHALEN E80 is a synthetic polymer that is well-known and widely used as a thickener and suspending agent in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries due to its safety and versatility.

Synthalen® L is a synthetic polymer that is well-known and widely used as a thickener and suspending agent in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries due to its safety and versatility. It is virtually solvent free because it is produced using a proprietary manufacturing technique (50 ppm max methylene chloride). Synthalen® L dispersions have a low viscosity but a higher suspending ability than other carbomers. As a result, Synthalen® L is the polymer of choice for fluid emulsion and suspension stabilisation. Agent of thickening.

SYNTHALEN® M is a synthetic polymer that is well-known and widely used in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries as a thickener and suspending agent due to its safety and versatility. It is virtually solvent-free because it is produced using a proprietary manufacturing technique (50 ppm max of methylene chloride). SYNTHALEN® M dispersions have low viscosity at 0.2 percent or less and high viscosity at higher concentrations (0.5 percent or more) These characteristics enable the production of multiple products from a single polymer. As a result, it is ideal for stabilizing emulsions and suspensions in cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. Thickening agent.
