Professional Chemist / FormulatorSeptember 20, 2019 at 10:42 am in reply to: Unorthodox waterbased pomade!@bgeorge about calculating hlb for 8 % ( 5%PEG 40 and 3 % Lecithin) , hlb = (hlb (peg40) × 5 + hlb (lecithin)×3 ) / ( 5+3)
AN : hlb = (15×5+ 3×7)/ 8 = 12.
About level use of emulsifers may 1/3 (oils phase without clay) will be good. -

Professional Chemist / FormulatorSeptember 16, 2019 at 8:53 pm in reply to: Unorthodox waterbased pomade!@bgeorge actually borax for your system is not only preservative actually it makes with wax emulsifier ingredient so it will change your emulsifiers hlb . I see it is very logic that second cream has lower viscosity cause you transformerd wax( thickner) to ( emulsifier soap ) wich will be more creamy and less viscous ( just for more help the hlb of borax wax is near to 5 and the level of it depends on saponified wax ).
