Compatibility
The viscosity of products with Carbopol® Ultrez 21
polymer is moderately sensitive to ions. Increased
levels of monovalent ions (like sodium) will result in a
decrease in application viscosity. The effect can be
minimized by the use of potassium salts or amine
neutralizing agents. Di-and multi-valent ions (like
calcium and magnesium) will precipitate Carbopol®
polymers. Therefore, formulating with deionized (or
at least soft) water is highly recommended.
