@Zara do you know how to use HEC?
It is water soluble and can mix very easily buy after mixing you have to increase the pH to 8-10 for it to get thickened. And then you can decrease the pH back.
Decyl glucoside is very hard to thicken and you would need more HEC. Lauryl and coco Glucoside is not so difficult.

@Padmavathi so you are also using it for label not for function?

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose is not compatible with Glucoside but Hydroxyethylcellulose is in my experience

@Belassi that is interesting. What is the relationship between olive oil and dandruff?

Does amphoteric surfactant increase the viscosity of Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate or Sodium cocoyl Isethionate?

@Perry temperature to what degree Celsius?

@EVchem i made a Shampoo with %1 Stearamidopropyl Dimethylamine and you can feel more condition and less buildup in first use compared to same formula with %0.2 cationic guar.
It is very thick an no separation after 4 days. I want to know if this separation for other people happened when formulating, after some time or they haven’t tried it by themselves

@Perry @EVchem when will this interaction and separation happen?
During Shampoo making or after some days and months?

@Perry what do you mean by don’t work?

Will it not clean the hair?
Will it not condition the hair?
Will the formula separate or something?

What would be the exact problem?

@zikiki like what pH for Stearamidopropyl Dimethylamine?

@Perry So what is a good replacement for cationic guar in thisSthis with no or minimum buildup?

@yes blends are better but my question was is there any rule to not use two preservative to there maximum when we blend them?

For example: in Euxyl®
k700 which is: Phenoxyethanol 30%, benzyl alcohol 30%, potassium sorbate 15%, tocopherol 15%,
water 15%. The maximum allowed is %1.5, that becomes %0.45 benzyl alcohol and %0.45 phenoxyethanol.

@ngarayeva001 how do you thicken it then and what other surfactants you use with it?

Abdullah

June 26, 2020 at 2:49 am in reply to: Salt to thicken SLES blend

@nikolatesla23 yes that is good and easy But it will save a lot of time if some one knows the minimum amount of SLES that is needed to be thickened.
Because i want SLES be there just to thicken the product, other surfactants for foam and cleaning.

@ngarayeva001 thanks
Can Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate function as primary surfactant?

@chemicalmatt thanks for advice.
I thought AOS would be milder.

What about Sodium lauryl methyl Isethionate and sodium cocoyl isethionate?

Abdullah
