VANATURAL® MC
VANATURAL® MC Bentonite Clay is a rapidly hydrating, water-washed bentonite clay. VANATURAL MC is a pure and natural suspension stabilizer, emulsion optimizer and rheology modifier for OTC topical products. VANATURAL MC is tightly controlled for microbiology.
VANATURAL MC disperses easily into water and hydrates rapidly. VANATURAL MC also reduces the slippery or sticky feel of gums and polymers, while providing a silky, tack-free feel in topical preparations. This bentonite clay is synergistic with common thickeners such as VANZAN® xanthan gum and CMC. These combinations will provide greater thickening, stabilizing and suspending properties than those developed by the individual components of the mixture.
Typical Use Levels: Between 0.5% and 3%
INCI Name: Bentonite
VANATURAL MC is a cosmetic grade which also has topical use in OTC pharmaceuticals.
