It disperses easily in water and forms clear, aqueous gels. Its shear-thinning properties allow strong gels with quick break for processing, spreading and dispensing. Moreover, it formulates into clear products and is effective over wide pH range. It imparts exceptional skin feel and stability to emulsions. It can create sprayable polyelectrolyte matrix when formulated with linear, high molecular weight cationic or pseudocationic polymers. It is compatible with a wide range of ingredients including polyquaterniums and has limited compatibility with salts & some anionic surfactants.
