    You question can be reduced to which is stronger detergent SLS or SLES by searching I understood that is SLS.

    There is no evidence relation that the more foam the more detergent power.

    4- when , how much time and which speed ( for high and low speed) ?

    5- Yes Phenoxyethanol reduce viscosity and maybe sensicare c 1060 reduce more this is the first point and second the drop of viscosity is more important using neowax 165 then other emulsifiers .

    Thanks a lot for sharing and I can help you about stability problem just as a quick help 3% of BTMS 25 is just 0.75% emulsfier so alone in this level is it logic to haven’t stable emulsion.

    BTMS is almost for hair care not skin care. If it is fine for skin which level suggest for BTMS and cetearyl alcohol?

    And which type of BTMS are you using 25%?

    Conditioning (we fixed as feeling sliky and soft) so it is “mesured” by sensory evaluation for skin and hair by many users and all said the same thing . I know that Lauryl glucoside supposed not conditionner however in my formulation it makes superior conditioning effect compairing to peg-7 glyceryl cocoate used in same level .

    I tried untill 4% cetearteh 20 with 6% Cetearyl alcohol and didn’t get desired viscosity plus at that level of cetearteh 20 soaping effect is huge

    Emulsifiers can be also thickner so my question about that . If i have acess to neowax 165 or other i Will not work and ask to replace them. Unfortuently we are surfering from the absence of auto Emulsifiers for a long time now this push to do that…
