    Thanks a lot Perry, I thought that vasline is soo stable versus oxidation.

    So in bad condition of storage can just two months make vasline have oxidation ?

    Then can vitamine or can you propose uv filter to solve the problem?

    For sure the ratio of sabowax AE is a secret however depending on your oil phase you can make your own successful emulsifiers combination that’s really easier and most important.

    On the top is it foam or liquid? Just try to add polysorbate (may 2%)

    Make élimination test : with making basic sample (sample without any white powders that you have) then divide your sample to samples “the number of white powders you have” . Then add to each sample just one type of powder and watch which powder causes that.

    I guess you can do it, almost liquid shampoo contains both cationic and anionic surfactants.

    May the add of polyquaternium and CAPB with reducing glucoside will give better product.

    I suggest to make 1 kg sample then if you don’t find the problem I will go for that the cause is changing process from small sample to industrial one.

    Changing process ( temperature, pressure,type of stiring, speed of stiring, order of adding ingredients…)

    Thanks a lot for the interesting reference, actually I never ask about references before I make efforts and researchement however I did not find any interesting ones. In may case I did not use any water soluble thickener however I found the same curve of viscosity said in your reference however I predict that in one very high speed stiring the curve will decrease and we will have same curve with salt curve.

    Thanks a lot, actually I found some articles talk about the relation between viscosity(level of oil, temperature of emulsion) and but I did not found good one which matches between viscosity and stiring speed and viscosity.

    Just I watch that in hair gel when stiring is too high forgot how the day goes exact speed the viscosity of product decrease. For cream I watch that the viscosity of cream increase only, going from 0 tr/min to 2000 tr/min as string speed the emulsion started in 70 C.

    Any reference for the relation between the viscosity of emulsion and the speed /time of stiring it will be exciting.

    Yes it is Cetrimonium chloride, it was just manual stiring for five minutes.

    However today i found out new phenomenon that the time and the speed of stiring have a huge effect on the viscosity of emulsion so could you explain me more the phenomenon please?

    Soo surprised from the link so do you guess it is the same for Ceteareth-25? actually almost water based pomade contains more then 20%

    The level of cocoamide DEA is low near to 1% so I don’t go with your guess but maybe.
