HONGBO 305 is a pre-neutralized polymer in an inverse emulsion.
This product comes in a ready-to-use liquid, pre-neutralized and effective over a wide pH range, SEPIGEL 305™ has revolutionised formulation habits. It is not only a thickening agent, but also an excellent stabilizer and texturizing agent. Ideal to be used to formulate hand sanitizer. These properties have paved the way for new sensory benefits. Not concerned by microplastics.
Technical Overview
INCI Name: Polyacrylamide (and) C13-14 Isoparaffin (and) Laureth-7.
Appearance: A white to yellowish, translucent to opaque viscous liquid.
pH Stability: Effective over a broad range from 3.0 to 12.0.
Solubility: Can be added to either the oil or water phase, though adding it to the oil phase often requires less energy for dispersal.

Cold Processable: It allows formulators to create emulsions without heat, which helps preserve the integrity of heat-sensitive active ingredients like vitamins and botanical extracts.
Sensory Experience: Provides a "velvety," non-greasy, and rich skin feel that is quickly absorbed.
Versatility: It can emulsify various oil phases (including silicones like dimethicone) and even gellify anhydrous liquids like alcohols and glycerin.
Compatibility: Works well with sun filters, pigments, AHAs, and organic solvents.
Usage & Limitations
Recommended Use Levels:
0.5%: Low viscosity lotions.
2.0%: Standard lotion viscosity.
3.0%: Thicker creams.
5.0%: Heavy body butters.
Applications
Commonly used in a wide variety of personal care products, including:
Face and body creams and lotions.
Sun care and self-tanning products.
Hair care and makeup foundations.
Hand sanitizers (hydroalcoholic gels).
