Formulation Advice
Despite the misinformation about this material you will read on the internet, Sepimax Zen can be put under high shear to speed up the hydration process.
If you do not have access to high shear, leaving the polymer to sit for 10 hours should also work but it is not an essential or the most efficient way to process this material.
Marketing Appeal
Sepimax Zen has the ability to create a wide range of products with a bouncy, light skin-feel. This polymer is pre-neutralized and ready to use in your next product innovation.
