  • % emulsifier, % oil in w/o emulsion

    Posted by tracingrobots on August 7, 2018 at 4:38 pm

    when calculating % emulsifier, % oil in w/o emulsion what would be the numerators used to get to these numbers?  

    we are using:

    olivem 1000
    squalene
    isoamyl laurate
    dermasoft gmcy
    tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate

    when calculating this

    would the oil percent be just squalene and isoamy laurate since the others are emulsifiers/wetting agents?

    and when calculating the percent of emulsifiers do we do:

    olivem 1000 / squalene + isoamyl laurate + olivem 1000 ?? 

    thank you!
