    Want to emulsify silicone oil of 350 - 1000 cstk in water using decyl or lauryl glucoside.

    A total of  25% in water, any ideas and suggestions.

    I’d be shocked if you can get more than 0.50 - 1.00% stably emulsified - And I think you’ll need closer to 40 or 50% glucoside in water.

    I would be shocked even if it stabilizes below that, a simple example being a shampoo with a little coconut or any other oil for softening properties. Its like playing soccer game on the moon n finishing it without losing the ball :D
