Hi everyone, I was also looking for a EDTA alternative and found all the information here. I tried using the Dissolvin GL into my Hair Gel but it is all watery. I am using cabomer to do my hair gel. Should i in cooperate this Dissolvin with something else or with a solublizer?
Thank you! -
You must first add the Dissolvine GL to room temperature water and stir well to incorporate. Dissolvine GL is usually the first ingredient that I add to the water phase when using it in a formulation. -
Thanks MarkBroussard!
However my hair gel still watery. Maybe i will try to lower the dosage. Thanks again! -
I am using Dissolvine GL38, which grade are you using???
-
I am using GL 47 S. I did ask my supplier if there was a different grade but he only supply this GL 47S.
-
You might consider using a different gelling agent or thickener if your gel is still watery. What Carbomer are you using and what are you using to activate it?

@MarkBroussard
I am using Cabopol 940, using Sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Because client want to eliminate Triethanolamine. -
Did you think of AMP (Aminomethylpropanol)???
-
It sounds as though you simply are not adding enough Carbomer 940 to make the gel.
-
To replace Teriethanoalmine? Yes i am trying it now. But due to cost, we prefer to stick to NaOH unless we have no other choice.

Can Dissolvine® GL be used in mouthwashes?
-
If Dissolvine® GL cannot be used in mouthwashes what is an alternative to EDTA or Natrlquest E30 for mouthwashes? We tried switching to Natrlquest E30 however it attacked our blue dye over time.
