The emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic in recent times has seen an exceptionally high demand for the use of hand sanitizer gels as an effective strategy to combat this infectious disease. Hand sanitizers have played a significant role in providing effective disinfection thereby offering a pragmatic solution to prevent further spread of the deadly SARS CoV-2 virus. While addressing the exceptionally high demands of manufacturing posed during such times, an observation has been that such hydroalcoholic gels tend to exhibit viscosity variations when maintained unperturbed over an extended time. Such inherent viscosity variations would influence sensorial dimensions of consumer usage during application. Hence, it is only relevant that such a phenomenon of viscosity variations in unperturbed hydroalcoholic gels be under-stood in some degree of detail.
