BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 2001
Non-animal origin rheological additive for aqueous Cosmetics and Toiletries
BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 2001 is our most efficient hydrophilic rheology modifier and is based on hectorite. Due to its small size, platelet shape, and large surface area, BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 2001 is able to form strong, stable viscous gels with thixotropic flow behavior. BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 2001 is irradiated for microbial control.
BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 2001 additive is a highly beneficiated, easily dispersible powdered smectite clay. It imparts thixotropic viscosity and good suspension control to the water phase of cosmetics.
