Hi,
I'm working on a roll-on formulation. I can not dissolve Aluminium Chlorohydrate. ıt's powder. ı have tried different percentages like 8%, 10%, 20%. I use a mixture as a thickener ( Hydroxyethyl Acrylate / Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer , Isohexadecane, Polysorbate 60)
There is also not enough thickening.
So, what's wrong?
Comments
below is my formula:
Aqua
Cyclopentasiloxane
Aluminium chlorohydrate
C12-13 Alkyl Lactat
Hydroxyethyl Acrylate / Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer , Isohexadecane, Polysorbate 60 (Thickener mix)
TEA
This is the only deodorant active I have right now. I will actively search for a new one after finding out where the problem is caused
the point is that I dissolve the thickener in half the formula water. I'm resolving ACH with the other half. After combining the two mixes, I leave it for a long mixing process. White residues remain, which are insoluble and settle to the bottom.
my formula exists in the above case. Do you have any suggestion for this?
She said different thickeners wouldn't work either without high speed mixing.
Do you think the problem could be entirely due to this??
Give it a go with a cheap hand blender/stick blender and see whether it still exhibits the same issues. It might end up foamy for a day so leave it sit and see what results.
For DIYing a cheap hand blender/stick blender will do.
INGREDIENTS: AQUA / WATER • ALUMINUM CHLOROHYDRATE • ALUMINUM SESQUICHLOROHYDRATE • CETYL ALCOHOL • PEG-100 STEARATE • GLYCERYL STEARATE • SORBITOL • DIMETHICONE • PARFUM / FRAGRANCE • BENZYL ALCOHOL • IODOPROPYNYL BUTYLCARBAMATE (F.I.L. C26796/2).
I have seen in previous R&D reports that there are no problems when using Hydroxyethylcellulose in formulas with ACH. however, high speed mixing was used.
I think the combination of Steareth-2 and Steareth-20 is suitable for cold process?
Do you have any suggestion of emülsifier suitable for cold process ?
