High-efficiency rheology modifier delivering exceptional viscosity build-up in aqueous systems.
Excellent compatibility with anionic, nonionic, and amphoteric surfactants commonly used in industrial formulations.
Stable performance across a broad pH range (pH 4–12), ensuring formulation robustness in diverse chemical environments.
Low dosage requirement — effective at concentrations as low as 0.1–0.5 wt%, optimizing cost-efficiency and minimizing formulation impact.
Non-ionic polymeric structure providing superior salt tolerance and resistance to microbial degradation.
Industrial cleaning formulations including alkaline degreasers and heavy-duty detergents.
Water-based metalworking fluids requiring stable viscosity and shear-thinning behavior.
Agrochemical suspension concentrates (SC) for improved particle dispersion and storage stability.
Construction additives for cementitious grouts and tile adhesives to enhance sag resistance and workability.
Textile auxiliaries such as dye baths and printing pastes where controlled flow and uniform application are critical.

Q1: What types of formulations is NJCARE PSD30 typically used in?
A: NJCARE PSD30 is primarily designed for aqueous-based personal care and home care formulations requiring gentle yet effective viscosity control — including shampoos, body washes, liquid hand soaps, and mild cleansing gels. Its non-ionic character supports compatibility with a broad range of surfactants and active ingredients.
Q2: How does NJCARE PSD30 differ from conventional associative thickeners?
A: Unlike many hydrophobically modified ethoxylated urethanes (HEURs) or acrylates, NJCARE PSD30 is a polymeric non-ionic thickener based on a tailored cellulose derivative architecture. It delivers robust rheology modulation with low sensitivity to electrolytes and pH shifts, and generally requires no neutralization step during incorporation.
Q3: Is NJCARE PSD30 compatible with preservatives and common actives?
A: Yes — NJCARE PSD30 demonstrates good compatibility with widely used preservative systems (e.g., isothiazolinones, parabens, and organic acid-based alternatives) and typical personal care actives such as panthenol, allantoin, niacinamide, and water-soluble vitamins. Compatibility testing under final formulation conditions is always recommended.
Q4: What is the recommended addition method for optimal performance?
A: For best results, disperse NJCARE PSD30 gradually into the aqueous phase under moderate agitation prior to adding other components. Pre-hydration in warm water (40–50°C) may accelerate dissolution, though cold-water dispersion is also feasible with sufficient shear time. Avoid high-shear addition directly into concentrated surfactant solutions.
