VEEGUM® HV

Magnesium Aluminum Silicate. VEEGUM® HV by Vanderbilt Minerals is a highly purified smectite clay for personal care applications. It acts as suspension stabilizer, emulsion optimizer and rheology modifier. It reduces the slippery or sticky feel of gums and polymers while providing a silky, tack-free feel in topical preparations. It is synergistic with common thickeners such as VANZAN® xanthan gum and CMC. These combinations will offer greater thickening, stabilizing and suspending properties than those developed by the individual components of the mixture. VEEGUM® HV gives excellent emulsion and suspension stability at low use levels.
