| Test Item | Common Testing Method | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Acid Value (Neutralization Value) | Acid-Base Titration Method | Determine the amount of NaOH in milligrams required to neutralize 1 g of sample using a standard sodium hydroxide solution, with phenolphthalein as an indicator. This reflects the carboxyl group content and is a key quality indicator (usually 56~65 mg/g). |
| Viscosity | Rotational Viscometer Method (e.g., Brookfield) | Disperse carbomer in a pH 7.0 buffer, allow it to swell fully, then measure its viscosity using a rotational viscometer at a specific speed. This evaluates thickening performance, with different carbomer models having corresponding viscosity requirements. |
| pH Value | pH Meter Method | Prepare a 1% (w/v) carbomer hydrogel, let it equilibrate, and directly measure the pH of the solution using a calibrated pH meter. Ensure it falls within the appropriate range (typically 4.5~7.0), which affects stability and skin compatibility. |
| Residue on Ignition (Ash Content) | Residue on Ignition Method (Chinese Pharmacopoeia Method) | Weigh the sample and burn it at high temperature (500~600℃) until constant weight, then determine the residual inorganic content. This assesses impurities or inorganic salt residues, typically requiring ≤0.5%. |
| Moisture Content | Karl Fischer Titration Method | Determine the moisture content in carbomer using Karl Fischer reagent, which reacts quantitatively with water. This controls the degree of drying, preventing microbial growth or storage instability; generally requires ≤10%. |
| Particle Size Distribution | Laser Diffraction Method / Microscopy Image Analysis Method | Determine the particle size distribution of carbomer powder using a laser scattering instrument or microscopic imaging system. This ensures powder uniformity, which affects dissolution rate and gel formation performance. |
| Heavy Metal Content | Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) or ICP-MS | Dissolve the sample and use atomic absorption or inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to determine the content of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury. This should comply with pharmacopoeia limits (e.g., Pb ≤ 5 ppm). |
| Microbial Limit | Microbial Counting Method (Bacteria, Mold, Yeast) | Perform aerobic bacterial count, mold and yeast count, and control organism testing (e.g., Escherichia coli) according to pharmacopoeia regulations to ensure sterility safety, especially for raw materials used in topical formulations. |
| Transmittance (Clarity) | UV-Visible Spectrophotometry | Prepare a standard concentration carbomer gel and measure transmittance at a specific wavelength (e.g., 550 nm) to evaluate gel clarity and impurity content. High transmittance indicates higher purity. |
| Crosslinker Residue (e.g., Allyl Sucrose) | Gas Chromatography (GC) or High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Detect residual amounts of crosslinkers (e.g., allyl sucrose) used in production to ensure they are within safe limits, avoiding potential toxic risks. |
| Conductivity | Conductivity Meter Method | Measure the conductivity of the carbomer aqueous dispersion to indirectly reflect the content of ionic impurities (e.g., sodium, chloride ions), used to assess purification level. |
| Swellability | Swell Volume/Weight Method | Weigh a certain amount of carbomer, add a specified volume of water or buffer solution, let it stand for 24 hours, then measure the swollen volume or weight to evaluate its water-absorbing expansion ability, a key indicator for gel formation. |
