NOTES |
A611 Standard quality paste characterized by a low viscosity and a high Al2O3 content of 9.5 – 11.0%. It is used primarily when a combination of good flowability and a high concentration of active agent is required.
A211 – Standard quality powder
A215 – Faster reaction rate powder
A503 – Low bulk density powder
A611 – Standard low-viscosity paste
A621 – More reactive, higher viscosity paste
A651 – Highly concentrated gel, highly viscous
A661 – Most viscous Alugel available, resistant to sedimentation
A671 – Free flowing suspension, suitable for 2x or 3x strength formulations
A681 – Most highly concentrated Aluminum Hydroxide suspension available, highly stable.
Customers who use Alugel also purchase Sucralfate, an all-purpose antacid for immediate relief and long-term healing
Use: COSMETIC COLORANT, EMOLLIENT, HUMECTANT, OPACIFYING, SKIN PROTECTING, VISCOSITY CONTROLLING |
