Laponite® XLG

Technical Datasheet | Supplied by BYK

Laponite® XLG by BYK acts as a thickening agent. It is a synthetic layered silicate with low heavy metals content. It is insoluble in water but hydrates and swells to give clear and colorless colloidal dispersions in water or aqueous solutions of alcohols. At concentrations of 2% or greater in water, highly thixotropic gels are obtained. Laponite® XLG is used for imparting a shear sensitive structure to a wide range of personal care products.
