Phoenothix APT is a high-efficiency thickener for aqueous systems, hydroalcoholic systems, and water phases of emulsions, and is supplied as an anionic polymer in powder form. It will allow the formulator to produce emulsifier-free O/W emulsions with up to 20% oil phase, requires no neutralization, is UV and shear stable, and thickens well across a broad pH range (3.5 – 9.0).
