Professional Chemist / FormulatorNovember 6, 2020 at 10:30 am in reply to: Neutralization of Carbomer 940@MurtazaHakim the rule is needed TEA equal 1,5 carbomer(in massic level) to neurtalize it and get pH =7 [ the amount can be less or more depends on desired ph] , however for your system which have more then 60 % Ethanol you will need as neutralizer AMP or other neutralizer that can work for your level of alcohol .

Professional Chemist / FormulatorMay 21, 2020 at 9:45 am in reply to: 80% ethanol based gel makingSupposed to have not gel with 80% and using TEA as neutralizer, I guess your alcohol degree is wrong unless you will not have gel with 80% ethanol.
For better results try AMP in place of TEA. -
