General Description

NuGum HV01 is a selectively mined, specially processed and water-washed smectite product, with optimal purity, heavy metals and performance. It is indicated where high viscosity at low solids is desired. Excellent emulsion and suspension stabilization at low use levels.

NuGum HV01 conforms to the EP monograph for Aluminium Magnesium Silicate.

Functional Use

A suspending agent, viscosifier, binder and emulsion stabilizer. The primary benefit of NuGum HV01 is the ability to stabilize a dispersion of almost anything dispersed in water lipids in emulsions, solids in suspensions, gases in foams. It’s also rheology modifiers and "feel" improvers, overcoming the tacky, slimy or gummy nature of organic thickeners and other formula ingredients. Additionally, It’s resistant to degradation by bacteria, heat, UV and shear.

NuGum HV01 is used primarily in cosmetics (e.g., pigment suspension in mascaras and eyeshadow creams) and pharmaceuticals.

Solubility

Usage

NuGum HV01 must be properly dispersed in water to achieve the best performance. No other materials should be present in the water because they can interfere with proper hydration and the formation of the colloidal structure. The degree of hydration is directly proportional to the amount of energy used to disperse the product, increasing with the mixing time, mixing intensity or water temperature. After sufficient hydration time, add remaining ingredients. Then the dilution process is complete.

Typical addition levels are between 0.5% and 3% of the total formulation by weight.
