  About calculating Zein value of surfactant blends

  Posted by Abdullah on May 10, 2021 at 9:58 am

  According to a chart from Clariant Zein value of SLES is 300, CAPB is ~80, APG is ~ 20. But no one is using single surfactant. So my question is

  1. Is Zein value of a blend of surfactants in shampoo correlated with % of total active surfactants?

  2. Can we calculate the Zein value of a blend of surfactants if we know the value of each surfactant individually?

  3. If yes then how? 
  What would be the Zein value of a Shampoo %8 SLES, %2 CAPB, %2 APG active surfactants?
