  Aluminum chloride gel

  Posted by amitvedakar on July 3, 2019 at 7:12 am

  I tried 5% aluminum chloride gel with carbomer 940-1.3%.

  But Gel was not formed (bacause nutrlise carbomer can destroy efficacy of Alcl3).

  As aluminum chloride is acidic what should i try to thicken?

  Xantham Gum or HPMC can help?

  The formulation has pH 5.

   It’s a dental product.

  Other ingredients: clove oil .2%, 1% frangrace & blue color.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hec is a good start, the percentage depends on the type of hec. For higher cellulose mass you will need a lower percentage.
