What is your pH and what is your target viscosity?
Poly glyceryl 4 laurate creates very low viscosity emulsions.
-
They are the same
-
You mean those white things?
Can you explain your preparation method and pH!
Maybe you are not melting them properly before homogenization.
-
In my opinion the best option is a clarifying shampoo + a conditioner
-
And add 0.2% EDTA too
-
Thanks a lot
-
Reduce behenyl alcohol to 1%
-
I saw a patent and It had 12% glycerin and ~25% water in that cationic emulsion.
-
Yes
-
They have 12% glycerin.
-
pH 4.3 is better than 5.
Why are you not using some petrolatum and glycerin instead of those butters?
Make a batch with 10% petrolatum and 10% glycerin and see how it works for very dry skin.

I made two samples, one 10% STPP in hot and one in cold water. The one in hot water dissolved properly with low speed mixing but the one with cold water STPP didn’t dissolve until i heated it a bit.
These samples were made in glass pot. Surprisingly this time after adding sodium hydroxide, it didn’t precipitate.
Also, after adding 10% STPP in water, pH was around 7. Is it normal?
-
ALS, sci, scg and an amphoteric
-
No it will not and it will be difficult to thicken too.
-
To what degree c you heat them and what is the homogenization speed and batch size?
-
Does is just feel nice or increase the stability too?
-
In my experience LGN emulsions with cationic emulsifiers like BTMS or BTAC are very stable without any water phase stabilizer.
@chemicalmatt what do you think about cationic guar for this purpose?
-
Thanks
-
Thanks
I after using both shampoo a few times as shampoo and as face wash, i think shampoo A is milder than B as face wash and my hair also feels better with shampoo A.
As I don’t have tools to measure the mildness so i am asking you experts, is shampoo a also milder than B or it is just my thinking?
-
Thanks
Is it because of formalin or CMI MI in the formula?
-
@ketchito thanks a lot.
Do you have any data for citrate too that shows how it works at different pH for different metal ions like this one is for EDTA?
-
Thanks but does citrate have energy to make hard water completely soft from tap water?
-
@philgies Is that enough only for fungi if used with 0.5-1% phenoxyethanol in an emulsion, not shampoo?
-
Thanks
Do you know any patent with ≥1% citrate in shampoo?
Please share if you have
-
I also think that it will be for water softening but as it has EDTA and and 0.1-0.2% percentage of of it is enough to make the product water soft, what will be this high amount of citric acid doing.
It is highest after SLES.
