FlexiThix™

Technical Datasheet | Supplied by Ashland

PVP. FlexiThix™ by Ashland Specialty Chemical is a thickener. It can easily build viscosity and stabilize products in water, oil and hydro - alcoholic systems, delivering viscosity - boosting performance even with challenging ingredients such as glycolic and salicylic acids. It provides a pleasant after-feel and requires no neutralization. It is effective across a wide pH range (2 - 13), it is capable of thickening aqueous and anhydrous formulations, and it has superb electrolyte tolerance. It performs regardless of solvent polarity, thickening highly polar aqueous systems to non-polar oil-based formulations. It is designed for use in a wide array of applications including creams, gels, lotions, anti-perspirants, hair relaxers, acne treatments and facial treatments. It is recommended for color cosmetics and leave on skin care.
