OILKEMIA 5S POLYMER

OilkemiaTM 5S Polymer is Lubrizol's first highly efficient and versatile oil-soluble rheology modifier for oil systems offering 5 key benefits: superior viscosity, superb clarity, suspension in oils, sensory enhancement, stability in emulsion.

OILKEMIATM 5S polymer is 30% solids in Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides. It is a multifunctional oil soluble rheology modifier designed to impart thickening with clarity and suspension in a broad spectrum of oils and oil mixtures such as vegetable-based oils, triglycerides, esters, and organic UV filters. It allows the development of a wide variety of textures from thin non-dripping systems to lotions or thick creams, and even solid stick. In anhydrous and emulsion systems, OILKEMIATM 5S polymer can improve the sensory experience by reducing the greasy after feel of the oils. This rheology modifier is very efficient in medium and high polarity systems, with an average use level of 1.0-6.0 wt% as-supplied for low to high viscosity oil gels.

Features/Benefits:
- Builds formulations that have exceptional suspension power, enabling striking visuals
- Enhances TIO2 pigment distribution in emulsions, resulting in pleasant aesthetics and high coverage efficiency
