Actually, a good equipment is very important during the process of making the product milky and smooth. We have been manufacturing mixing equipments for over 21 years and we have a lot of experience, here is our website  http://www.yekeey.com   I think you can find some useful information here.

Thanx i’llvisit your site for sure.

How much is a matter of experimentation. Apparently GMS is used as a pearliser but I have not tried it yet.

Ok, i’ll do some experiments thanx

I am having tough time during making ng 80% ethanol gel as it consumes more carbopol and due to high prices it’s cost goes higher…
A customer want it with WHO recommendations but with gel not liquid I mad it once but its tolerance towards TEA is very low at higher concentration.
I have a meeting today in evening for this quality requirements. What should be the best percentage of Ethanol that can work in these conditions?

[Ahmad]

They all have different purposes and abilities. Consult the manufacturer’s literature and review the sample formulations provided.

thanx Belassi
i wanted to use these for anionic surfactants e.g LABSA & SLES. i’ll look into the details for what purpose they are being made, hopefully will get an answer. 

[Ahmad]

Belassi said:

940 is useless with anionic surfactants.

which grade of carbopol is better, ultrez-20/21 is not available in our country.
we have polygel-940/941/934.
Does it have any other name (ultrez-21)?

Hello,
what is that slimy slow moving property in liquid dish wash of max?
i trued to increase surfactant and tried to enhance its thickness but still did not get that kinda result.
Is there any kind of slimy product like glue or else is used in it? 

Max? Is that a brand?
What are their ingredients?

yes it’s a brand of Unilever i guess…

Quimico said:

No!! LABSA is not recommended for personal care formulation.
Try this commercial formula;

1. Water balance to 100
2. Glycerin   1
3. SLES        14
4. DEA          2
5. BETAINE  1
6. EDTA       0.2
7. SALT       4
8. Perfume & dye  qs

glycerine!!! is it not water soluble?
 

[Ahmad]

for the preservatives i use DMDM, but still need suggestions to increase the amount of preservatives or stick to only one?
Methyle paraben is good but its slightly soluble in water and infer in the thickness of the liquid dish wash.

[Ahmad]

one more thing the perfume that is essential oil (oil based) will drop the viscosity of the liquid, is it due to oily nature of the perfume that is merged to the oil attractive part of the surfactant and reduces its efficiency?
