Ultrez 20 (CAS 9007-20-9) Medium-Viscosity Cosmetic Thickener
01
Product Description
Ultrez 20 is a hydrophobically modified acrylic polymer developed by Lubrizol, with the INCI name Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer. It appears as a white, fluffy powder and is classified as a high-performance rheology modifier and suspending agent in cosmetic formulations. Its molecular structure, designed with hydrophobic modifications, offers high clarity and moderate electrolyte tolerance. A key distinguishing feature is its "long-flow" rheology: it exhibits higher viscosity under low shear (preventing dripping) but flows smoothly upon application, delivering a lightweight, non-tacky feel. Its self-wetting properties allow quick dispersion in water to form clear gels, reducing dust and production energy use compared to traditional carbomers.
As a premier Ultrez 20 supplier, Aogebio® delivers pharmaceutical-grade Carbomer (9007-20-9) specifically engineered for formulators seeking perfect balance between performance and aesthetics. Our Ultrez 20 is the ideal medium-viscosity thickener (20,000-40,000 mPa·s) for creating luxurious yet lightweight textures in advanced skincare products.

01
Use
Recommended dosage: 0.2%-1.0% (adjust by desired viscosity). For example, 0.5%-0.8% for clear gels; 0.1%-0.3% for lotions or sunscreens.
Avoid: Direct mixing with strong cationic surfactants (e.g., quaternary ammonium salts), which may disrupt the gel structure. Dilute cationic ingredients first before slow addition.
