ICE Alginate is a natural thickener combination with sunflower wax and sodium alginate (alginic acid) to make stable all-round lotions. This ICE product is best combined with an emulsifier, such as polysorbate 20 for example, to get a smooth lotion. Alginate is a natural polysaccharide (sugar from brown algae) that has a large capacity of absorbing water. Hydrophile / lipophile balanced to ensure the highest viscosity. Natural thickener that can make instant emulsions with a light non-greasy feel when an emulsifier is added. Leaves a soft, smooth feel on the skin due to the exceptional water-binding capacity of alginate and emollients. Acts as a thickener and stabilizer (ideal when a lotion is too runny).
