Hand Sanitizer Color Issue
Dear Experts,
I have been watching your videos on YouTube, which are indeed very helpful.
I am facing some color issue, so I am elaborating my procedure as follow for your assistance.
I am trying to prepare gel hand sanitizer with the following formulation
1- Alcohol (IPA) 75%
2- Glycerol 1.45%
3- Hydrogen Peroxide 0.13%
4- Water 24%
5- Carbomer 2% of distilled water
6- Triethalamine (TEA)- 2 to 3 drops
Procedure
1- I put the Carbomer in distilled water and leave it for 12 hours for proper dispersal/hydration, this leaves me with distilled water Gel.
2- Then put IPA and mix with the blender for a few minutes
3- Add TEA, the above mixture converts to Gel
4- Add Hydrogen Peroxide and Glycerol and some lemon essential oil.
5- Blend it again for 5 minutes to complete the process.
Everything is perfect, except the color is slightly muddy /cloudy.
How can I get a crystal clear gel?
Needs the expert’s opinion.
Thanks in advance
Jeff
