To impart good emulsion, suspension control, improved film-build, eliminate syneresis, reduce separation and settlement, create novel viscosity effects and to design the right performance in w/o, o/w, single phase, solid or liquid systems, viscosity control agents are needed.
For applications such as Creams&Dressings, Shampoos and Conditioners the best flow control agents are:
A non-animal organoclay powder is an organically modified hectorite designed to impart rheological control and suspension for high polar systems.

A highly beneficiated, easily dispersible powdered smectite clay. It imparts thixotropic viscosity and good suspension control to the water phase of cosmetics.
Ingredients INCI name: Hectorite
A specially prepared dispersion of a non-animal origin organically modified hectorite in cosmetic grade castor oil. This grade is designed to impart rheological control and suspension to organic- and siliconebased cosmetics.
Ingredients INCI name:
Ricinus Communis, Stearalkonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate
A specially prepared dispersion of a non-animal organically modified hectorite in Eutanol+ G. It provides thermostable viscosity control of the emulsion's oil phase, improves application properties, enhances skin-feel by masking greasy or tacky components and imparts a pleasant residual silkiness to the skin.
Ingredients INCI name:
Octyldodecanol, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate
A specially prepared dispersion of a non-animal organically modified hectorite in glyceryl tri caprylate/caprate. It is also particularly useful in emulsions and can be used in "cold process" systems for stabilising emulsions.
Ingredients INCI name:
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Stearalkonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate
A specially prepared dispersion of a non-animal organically modified hectorite isopropyl myristate. It enhances skin-feel by masking greasy or tacky components and imparts a pleasant residual silkiness to the skin. BENTONE GEL® IPM V is an alternative to traditional polymer or cellulose-based thickeners for stabilising emulsions.
Ingredients INCI name:
Isopropyl Myristate, Stearalkonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate
A specially prepared dispersion of a non-animal origin organically modified hectorite in a mixture of lanolin oil and isopropyl palmitate. It provides thermostable viscosity control of the emulsion's oil phase, improves application properties, enhances skin-feel by masking greasy or tacky components and imparts a pleasant residual silkiness to the skin.
Ingredients INCI name:
Lanolin Oil, Isopropyl Palmitate, Stearalkonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate, Propyl Paraben
A specially prepared dispersion of an organically modified hectorite in cosmetic grade mineral oil. It provides thermostable viscosity control of the emulsion's oil phase, improves application properties.
Ingredients INCI name:
Paraffinum Liquidum, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate
A BENTONE GEL® based on natural Meadowfoam Seed Oil that provides excellent suspension control and ease of use.
Ingredients INCI name:
Meadowfoam (Limnanthes Alba) Seed Oil,
Disteardimonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate
A specially prepared dispersion of an organically modified hectorite in ISOPAR+H. This grade is designed to impart rheological control and suspension to organic- and siliconebased cosmetics.
Ingredients INCI name:
C11-12 Isoparaffin, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Alcohol Denat
BENTONE GEL® PTIS V
A specially prepared dispersion of a non-animal organically modified hectorite in Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate. It is also particularly useful in emulsions and can be used in "cold process" systems for stabilising emulsions and colour cosmetics, but also to provide thermostable flow control.
Ingredients INCI name:
A specially prepared dispersion of an organically modified hectorite in volatile silicone (pentamer). This grade is designed to impart rheological control and suspension to organic- and siliconebased cosmetics. It provides thermostable viscosity control of the emulsion's oil phase, improves application properties, enhances skin-feel by masking greasy or tacky components and imparts a pleasant residual silkiness to the skin.
Ingredients INCI name:
Cyclopentasiloxane, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate
A specially prepared dispersion of an organically modified hectorite in volatile silicone (pentamer). This grade is designed to impart rheological control and suspension to organic- and siliconebased cosmetics. It provides thermostable viscosity control of the emulsion's oil phase, improves application properties, enhances skin-feel by masking greasy or tacky components and imparts a pleasant residual silkiness to the skin.
Ingredients INCI name:
Cyclopentasiloxane, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Alcohol Denat
An organically-modified hectorite clay additive designed for the water phase of cosmetics. It is a highly efficient thickener providing significantly higher viscosity than other clay-based additives.
Ingredients INCI name: Hectorite and Hydroxy Ethyl Cellulose
A rheological additive, based on a purified hectorite clay, which imparts thixotropy and good anti-settling properties to the water phase of cosmetics. It is particularly effective as a means of improving suspension control without unduly increasing viscosity.
Ingredients INCI name: Hectorite
A non-hygroscopic derivative of castor oil that imparts a high degree of thixotropic thickening in cosmetics mineral, vegetable and silicones oils, as well as low-polarity aliphatic solvents. It improves product stability when used in the oil phase of emulsions and can be used as a binder in pressed powder formulations.
Ingredients INCI name: Trihydroxystearin
