Carbopol® Aqua 30 polymer

Carbopol® Aqua 30 polymer is a lightly crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylic emulsion polymer supplied as a 30% active polymer in water. It provides excellent suspension and stabilization with long flow characteristics and relatively low viscosity compared to other Carbopol polymers. Carbopol® Aqua 30 polymer shows good compatibility with surfactants. It is recommended for use in low viscosity gels, emulsions and cleaners where suspension is required.
