Aristoflex® AVC Aristoflex® AVC is a pre-neutralized synthetic polymer used as a gelling agent for aqueous systems and as a texturizer and thickener for oil-in-water emulsions. Because it is fast breaking on the skin, it has a unique light, fresh sensory appeal. 

Key benefits:

• Good stabilization, thickening properties 
• Non-ethoxylated
• Fresh and light skin feel
• Cold-processable
• Compatible with organic solvents
• Compatible with silicones

Applications

• Oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions
• Clear aqueous gels
• Emulsifier-free cream gels
• Ideal for creams, lotions, milks, gels

Formulation Guidelines

• Aristoflex® AVC is sensitive to electrolytes and is not suitable for use in certain surfactant systems (such as cleansing products) which may contain high levels of salts.
• Hydrolyzed proteins typically contain salts and their use with Aristoflex® AVC may result in loss of viscosity.
• Use in products intended to have a pH lower than pH 4.0 may lead to acidic cleavage of the polymer on prolonged storage resulting in viscosity loss.
• As Aristoflex® AVC is an ammonium salt, pH higher than 9.0 will release ammonia
