  • Enables formulation flexibility because of its excellent compatibility with anionic, nonionic and amphoteric surfactants and synergistic thickening with salts.
  • Provides shear thinning rheology to enable easy pumping and dispensing of finished products via trigger sprayers.
  • Provides yield value to allow for the suspension of a wide variety of insoluble materials or particles. Yield value enables finished products to have vertical cling which is an important characteristic for products that are dispensed via a trigger spray or nozzle.
