@Abdullah I read that ionic emulsifier are electrolyte sensitive , then have you an explanation how in your case Na CL make your cationic emulsifier more stable? 

[Fekher]

@Abdullah @Pharma @PhilGeis the strange thing for me that pH decreased moderately, my suspect  is the presence of surfactant?

 However I didn’t find scientific explanation any one have please? 

[Fekher]

You are welcome @amitvedakar 

[Fekher]

So generous @vitalys thanks a lot for your guidance it seems near to the interval of use for PVP ????

[Fekher]

Awesome input @vitalys it seems that it has more then fixing agent as benefits just if you can recommend level of use because I just find that it is up to 18% wich is large interval.

 Thanks a lot @Farah I will take a look just focusing on fixing effect I worked with very high viscous sugar syrop wich have remarkable superior fixing ability comparing to honey then no need to talk about economical difference.

[Fekher]

Have a long time from talking about that and really thanks a lot @Dirtnap1 @Chemist77 @Perry @Soexcited for your precious comments, so nearl I heard from professional chemist that panthenol have good effect for reducing flaking effect any one have an idea about that? @Abdullah 

[Fekher]

@Abdullah according to your expertise what input will you suggest even more then ingredient or unlisted? 

[Fekher]

@Pharma actually according to what they do in Europe, in Tunisia are more kind maybe because we have a lot aromatic plants ????????????, whatever nice joke from your part then keep giving interesting sciences and good jokes.
 @vitalys nice new input for me , have you made a successful hair styling gel using it? 

[Fekher]

 @Pharma so you didn’t find that good idea?
 Wasps are around the word, why just Europe? Hhh

[Fekher]

Thanks for your answer @PhilGeis 

[Fekher]

@PhilGeis get it now, so as a conclusion you guess that  product can be stable using preservative?

[Fekher]

@PhilGeis thanks a lot but really it seems very developed idea can you explain me with easier way ?

[Fekher]

Thanks @Abdullah my guess was fine then ????. 

[Fekher]

@Abdullah soo strange adding salt for such system is it for viscosity or preservation boost or what?! I guess cationic have preservative property then is not strange to have good stability. 

[Fekher]

@Abdullah welcome to curious chemists group ????????????, I have similar mentality wich makes a lot of fun but mind burns ????
  Just with your  SA experience you discovered very interesting solvent system 10% for 14% 

[Fekher]

@Abdullah very interesting what you are doing just in theoric 0.5% cationic +fa seems as a weak emulsifier combination  but I guess the secret is using petrolatum in oil phase that gives more stability for emulsion product. Keep making original things brother ????

[Fekher]

@Abdullah interesting news thanks for sharing knowledge, just didn’t you pass the maximum level of use with 14% ? it seems in such level pharmaceutical reason maybe.
 Same for my product today transformed to crystal clear. 

[Fekher]

You are welcome @Abdullah just I want to know for that type of cream your emulsifier combination is only cationic surfactant + fatty alcohol?

[Fekher]

Thanks for the answer @MarkBroussard
 Just update I tried the product in my hair so SA is not known as hair conditioner however I feel that it gives some conditioning effect for the hair near to the PQ 7.

[Fekher]

@Anca_Formulator fine you have the right to defend yourself there is no problem. 

[Fekher]

Thanks @chemicalmatt for the input 

[Fekher]

@Betto3 I guess in opposite sodium stearate will increase the hardness of soap, I suggest to use a saponifacation calculator to see the effect try https://calc.mendrulandia.es/?lg=en

[Fekher]

@amitvedakar Euxyl k120 is my actual preservative for my products , it is effective and economical however you should be careful in hot process because the temperature of add for it is 40 °C or below. 

[Fekher]

@Graillotion @jemolian nice point to inform because shipment will increase exponentially the price of ingredient. 

[Fekher]

@starlord13 not necessary, the most important is working for the water’s quality and adding chelating agent sush EDTA as @ketchito mentioned can help little bit.
