Professional Chemist / FormulatorOctober 6, 2019 at 9:52 am in reply to: Hand cream formulation help!@Gordana actually cetyl alcohol and cetyl palmitate are not emulsifiers they are just oil ingredients , and as i guess it is w/o cream so glyceryl stearate by it self can lead for that type of emulsion .
Geogard 221 is good idea i guess. -

Professional Chemist / FormulatorOctober 6, 2019 at 9:38 am in reply to: water in oil lotions@Yasmine i’am also trying beewax in emulsion and i got verry acceptable texture ,i guess the problem is from formulation not ingredients so for cream i’am sure to have w/o cream beewax can be good solution may in lotion is not, however in case of sunscreen cream is a good idea.
Second thing for suspension zinc oxide or titanuim you can do it in oil pomade and you will get verry lovely texture without the need of emulsion so you will be more sure about product’s stability . -

Professional Chemist / FormulatorOctober 5, 2019 at 2:03 pm in reply to: water in oil lotions@tanelise actually i had not borax however i tried NaOh with beewax and i got very stable emulsion , but i’am sure that it works also with borax .
The reason i go for borax that it is milder base comparing to Naoh and even the origin lol with with borax i was obliged to try it with NaOh because i did not find borax . Give the Lol and i will check it for giving advice . -

Professional Chemist / FormulatorOctober 3, 2019 at 11:05 am in reply to: Dishwash Liquid Problem@AbdulRahim i made a lot of experiences using CAPB and i’am sure that if it is good quality it will never cause cloudy effect , so you just need to verify if it is really from CAPB . If it is , so the problem is the quality of it not CAPB by it-self .

@dodipharma in liquid form just mineral oil and vegetables one are not mixcible cause mineral are not polair however vegetables are less or more polar so that difference of polarity make them not mixcible in liquid form .

@mhart123 great job . So the second plan you can use 3:1 parts ( solubilizer: menthol ) it will almost work however you will use 30 % solubilizer wich is too much or try high level of alcohol ( ethanol , ISP) try differents level to find the minimum required level to solubilise 10 % of Menthol .
