  • Shear sensitivity (polymers)

    Posted by Doreen on March 22, 2018 at 3:56 pm

    I was wondering how people here deal with polymeric thickeners that already start thickening as soon as the phases are combined. Like the ones that are pre-neutralized or that are viscous at a lower pH. I’m afraid I might damage the structure when using high shear. This is one of the reasons I prefer a carbomer like Ultrez 10 which gives you some playtime until it’s neutralized.
