SOLAGUM™ AX
(INCI: Acacia Senegal Gum & Xanthan Gum)

SOLAGUM™ AX is a natural rheology modifier and thickener made from a blend of acacia gum and xanthan gum. This ingredient is designed to create smooth, non-stringy gels and increase viscosity in a wide range of formulations. It hydrates quickly, works in both hot and cold processes, and helps stabilize emulsions with a soft, elegant skin feel. Unlike xanthan gum on its own, SOLAGUM™ AX avoids stringiness, tackiness, and soaping in lotions, making it easier to use in finished products.

Key Benefits

  • Natural thickener and stabilizer for gels, creams, and lotions

  • Cold process emulsifier for cream-gels with up to 15 percent oils

  • Creates non-sticky, non-stringy, and smooth textures

  • Excellent particle suspension power and film-forming effect

  • Works across a wide pH range from 3 to 12 without neutralization

  • Quick hydration in as little as 3 minutes

  • Compatible with surfactants, acids, AHAs, pigments, and sunscreens

Applications

  • Face and body care formulations

  • Sun care products

  • Hair care and styling products

  • Make-up bases and primers

  • Cleansers, shampoos, shower gels, and other hygiene products

Recommended Usage

  • Aqueous gels and viscosity booster: 0.6% to 1%

  • Creams, lotions, shampoos, and conditioners: 0.1% to 3%

  • Cold process cream-gels: 1% with 5% to 15% oils

  • Add to the water phase and disperse with mechanical mixing until the gel is fully hydrated and clear

Appearance & Properties

  • Non-dusty powder that dissolves in hot or cold water

  • Produces clear gels with fluid to medium consistency

  • Faster hydration compared to xanthan gum alone

  • Stable in electrolytes, surfactants, and salts

  • Film-forming properties support hydration of skin and hair

Formulation Tips

  • Always use a mechanical mixer such as a stick blender or propeller to ensure proper dispersion

  • Do not attempt to hydrate with a spatula or by passive soaking as this can lead to separation and failure

  • Works well alongside other rheology modifiers such as Sepinov EMT 10 or Sepimax ZEN for added thickening and stability

  • Best added to the water phase of emulsions or as a cold process thickener for gels
