Saltolera
(Thickener with high tolerance against salt)


Pharmaceutical & Cosmetic products
New thickener with high tolerance against salt. Its strength in resistance against multivalent ions and excellent thixotropic character enable a flexible formulation in functional cosmetics containing minerals and electrolytes. Saltolera creates an innovative gel with excellent dispersion of a water-soluble vitamin C derivative, which makes for an extraordinary smooth and fresh texture.
- Resistant against multivalent ions and thixotropic
- Smooth and silky texture
- Fresh and cool feeling

Stability against metal ions
In the existence of metal ions, the stability of other water soluble polymer thickeners decreases. This is presumably because the intramolecular repulsion stemming from the ionic charge of the polymer is weakened due to electrical shielding by excessive metal ions. Saltolera, on the other hand, can achieve the desired increase in viscosity by adding salt.
【Condition】 pH 8 Saltolera 1% added at room temperature
【Measurement condition】 B8H rotational viscometer at 3rpm

Stability against heat
Thickened liquid made with Saltolera is less likely to decrease viscosity when heated, and its viscosity does not change even if left for many hours at 40 °C.
【Condition】 Magnesium ascorbyl phosphate 3% and pH 8 Saltolera 1% added at room temperature
【Measurement condition】 B8H rotational viscometer at 30rpm
