  • Creams have air-bubbles

    Posted by Mariza on July 3, 2018 at 8:39 am

    Hello,

    I have created a couple of creams (O/W emulsions) with a high percentage of water. I have used a homogenizer mixer with 2500-3000 rpm.
    The creams even after some days have air bubbles in them.

    What can be the problem?

    Thank you.

    We can only guess, so i’ll say high shear during cooldown and/or order of adition.

    No problem, but if you want a real answer you should give us more information. A detail of what materials did you use and the order of adition are the basic. You should be as detailed as possible.
