  Toothpaste suggestion

  Posted by Fekher on December 19, 2024 at 12:32 am

  I’am thinking to make basic tooth paste gel with :

  Glycerin and sorbitol : 35-60%

  Water: qsp

  CAPB and coco glucoside : 2% active surfactant

  Hpmc:1-2%

  Preservtive : may parabens as needed

  Menthol: 0.1%-0.3%.

  Sodium sacharin: 0% to needed level

  Peg 40 castor oil: 1-4%

  Triclosan : if it has really benifet at adequate level

  Essential oil : may added if needed

  Sodium bicarbonate : as needed

  So I want to know :

  1)without powder as carbonate calcium… Can toothpaste gel works well?

  2)What is the best thickener for tooth paste:sodium cmc almost used, Hec, Hpmc ?

  3)Is my surfactant system fine for sush product and why they use sls and they don’t use sles? I feel from researching that used surfactants in toothpaste are limited is true and according to what the limitation especially sls is allowed ?

  4)What is the best pH for tooth paste? many insist that acidic pH is bad however is not slightly acidic (maybe 4 to 4.5) is more efficient to remove limestone?

  5) for product contains 60% glycerin or more is preservative needed? What preservative can be used in sush product other then parabens and sodium benzoate?

  6) What about the effeciency of triclosan and sodium carbonate as actives and any better replacement for fluoride?
