  You don’t really “dissolve” carbomers as much as you disperse them and then neutralize them to get the final viscosity. Lubrizol has some very helpful articles on dispersing them and neutralizing them.

  There are also some pre-neutralized polymers as well.

  Recently we have been using a great deal of the 3V products with great results. @chemicalmatt can expand on those.
