Then after you can add this mixture into the main vessel. The final viscosity is very important at least you need to get 5000-10000cpIt’s 2-in-1 technology. The keys are the drop size of the Dimethicone obtained by shear stress and crystallization of GDS in the emulsion.

MarkBroussard said:It is not a matter of simply adding a Preservative ingredient to a formula. It’s hurdle technology that includes chelating agents, glycols/diols to reduce water activity and bacteriocides and fungicides that are compatible with the formula.
I second it!

Yes, phenoxyethanol should be combined with other preservatives, ethylhexylglycerin or benzisothiazolin, both work in wide pH range. You may need to add a chelant to boost its activity.
Remember for soil cleaning/degreasing detergent works best at alkaline pH. So not sure if you want to sacrifice your dishwashing performance to have sodium benzoate in the formula. -
Agree, neutralize LABS first then add SLES. You can use phenoxyethanol which is effective in wide range of pH
