Sepimax™ Zen: Versatile Thickener and Stabilizer
Overview
Sepimax™ Zen is a pre-neutralized polymer known for forming transparent, rich gels independently. It serves as a thickener and stabilizer in emulsions and surfactant systems, enhancing foam density and thickening anionic and non-ionic surfactants. When used with surfactants, Sepimax™ Zen produces soft and creamy foam and lather at a 2% concentration. It enables the formulation of low pH gels, accommodating ingredients like up to 4% glycolic acid, 0.1% magnesium chloride, and 0.2% EDTA.
