Introduction

Application example:
Dissolving of carbopol powder into water

Carbopol
Polymer product used to modify rheological properties (viscosity, thickness, flow-ability) of various personal care products, pharmaceutical ingredients, household related products.

Application:
1. 150mg Carpbopol Powder
2. 5L Powder

Characteristic of Carbopol:
Very hydroliphic (strong water absorbency), high tendency to form lumps if not properly incorporated.

Comparison    
   

Conventional method of incorporating powder presents following disadvantages:

   
 

1. Manual powder handling (emission, dusting, health concern and loss of product).

2. Formation of lumps/ "fish-eyes" (undissolved solid portions) give rise to inconsistent product quality.

3.Long processing time (stirring & dissolving) requiring more energy.

4. The above is especially true with sticky / hydrophilic powders.

  
     

Advantages of using Modern Powder Incorporation Technology Compared to Conventional Method:

    
     

1. No emission of dusts and vapours.

2. No contamination.

3. No forming of agglomerates/ "fish-eyes".

4. Short process times.
