- Performance Highlights
- RHEOSOL OP can be added to personal care formulations at any stage of manufacture. It is easily dispersed and does not require neutralization or heat, thickening simply by agitation.
- RHEOSOL OP produces opaque formulations. (KLEASOL 200ST is recommended for formulations requiring absolute clarity)
- RHEOSOL OP aids suspension and stabilization of other co-ingredients, and its high thickening efficiency means that only low usage levels are required in many applications.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Versatility
- RHEOSOL OP has been designed for use in the presence of cationic and non-ionic coingredients.
- RHEOSOL OP allows cold mixing in aqueous systems, thereby increasing process speed and efficiency, and reducing energy costs in manufacture.
- RHEOSOL OP allows cosmetic gels to be produced in the presence of high levels of solvents.
- RHEOSOL OP does not require neutralization or the addition of sodium chloride to achieve viscosity build.
Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Information
RHEOSOL OP is available in 25kg bags.
