Will Zinc pyrithione precipitate or do creaming in this shampoo formula?
Posted by Abdullah on July 19, 2023 at 8:08 amThis is a simple shampoo formula
SLES 9%
CAPB 3%
Water
Thickened with nacl
If i add 2% Zinc pyrithione in this formula without any suspending agent, will zinc pyrithine precipitate at the bottom or cream to the top of shampoo bottle?
