LAPONITE-XLS XR is a synthetic layered silicate of low heavy metal content, incorporating an inorganic polyphosphate dispersing agent. It hydrates and swells in water to give clear and colorless colloidal dispersions of low viscosity known as sols. This product is recommended for incorporation into formulations containing low levels of free water, such as skin wash products. At 10 % concentration in deionized water, the dispersion will remain free-flowing for over 24 hours. The unique shear thinning and thixotropic rheology of LAPONITE-XLS XR improves the skin feel of personal care products. Formulations will have a light, non-sticky texture.It enhances stability of formulations and keeps particles, pigments or solid actives suspended. This product has been sterilized by gamma irradiation.
