<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a polymer dispersion composition, a method for preparing the same and use of the composition. <P>SOLUTION: The polymer dispersion composition comprises microparticles of a hydrophilic, water soluble or swellable polymer, preferably an acrylic-based polymer, having a neutralization level of from about 25 to about 100%, and dispersed in a suitable non-aqueous carrier fluid and an oil-in-water surfactant. The composition is useful to prepare a microparticulate thickening system to thicken aqueous or aqueous/organic compositions, particularly for use in personal care and pharmaceutical formulations. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
