The level of perfume is too high and can be the reason.

Then stearic acid with Triethanolamine give Triethanolamine stearate which is high hlb emulsifier.

May you need cationic surfactant and yes you can use only CAPB and glycoside.

Zinc Pyrithione-Based Antidandruff Shampoo | Hallstar BPC
This antidandruff shampoo formulation uses particulate zinc pyrithione as its active ingredient, and HallStar® SAB-2N Flake to maintain the active ingredient in dispersed form. HallStar® SAB-2N Flake also contributes opacity as well as desirable rheological properties to the finished product. By … Continue reading

With CAPB and glycoside as I guess you can reach a quite good product,sure for shampoo you need more ingredients for having a basic free sulfate shampoo so you have to work more for getting better results.

MemberJuly 25, 2023 at 8:50 am in reply to: Concerns during formulating Sulfate free shampoosWhat about reducing some Actives surfactants to have lower viscosity?
Just try low dilution and watch the result.
-
The level of alcohol is good however the level of perfume and mpg can be reduced.
-
Using amount of low hlb emulsifier may solve the problem.
-
Soo far to be acceptable formulation, increase the level of xanthan gum, the level of surfactants and decrease or eliminate oil phase they are just waste of money and efficiency of product.

@evchem2 today I found out the secret of the reason of why using the keratin sometimes it gives crystal clear solution and sometimes it gives opaque solution. Actually for the second time opacity problem appears when I use the bottom of bottle so I supposed that the top of the bottle is Cyclopentasiloxane (according to the color, viscosity) and in the bottom it is the keratin (yellow colour different with the top colour wich is transparent) wich cause the opacity problem. So thanks for your suggestions and i’am sure now that your second suggestion is the right one.

@chemicalmatt @ketchito actually the inci as I said:(Cyclopentasiloxane - Keratin Amino Acids) so it is not water based keratin then I worked 15 kg with level up to 2% of this keratin getting crystal clear product so if it is the cause of turbidity why reaching the 2% for first Batch I did not have any issue.
Update to all, today I verified the lot of other silicones and unfortunately they have the same lot then I made a batch of 500 grams getting not clear product moving to 100 grams batch I got crystal clear product. I’am thinking according to what I saw that it is related to report (exchange surface /volume) (Note : I mixed the 100 grams and 500 grams in same reactor) -

MemberDecember 29, 2022 at 11:45 am in reply to: Hair Conditioner Formula review. Need some input for tweaking.@Paprik how stearic acid is anionic? Actually it is fatty acid with carboxylic acid function without negative charge.
-
@Perry so according to you finding the adequate energy of mixing will solve the problem? Actually tried mixing with different energy and that did not improve at all the transparency
@ketchito actually it was manuel mixing with very low speed so I supposed temperature is the room temperature.
my ingredients are : brb1834, brb dm 350,brb cm 50,AC KERAIN AMINO ACIDS SIL (inci:Cyclopentasiloxane - Keratin Amino Acids), perfume@SunilHiwarkat1965 thanks for your precious share just why using all that ingredients to solve the problem, c12_15 alone was not enough or for more efficiency?
@evchem2
1)I eliminated the mixing reason because for the first purchase when I made 100 grams then 1 kg of product then I moved to 20 kg there was no issue in manuel mixing so if we supposed that the transparency problem was from different mix energy why I did not face that issue in the first purchase?
2)I had the same reflection about raw material variation and I think that is the real reason I verified the keratin and it is the same lot however I did not verify other ingredients and thanks for awesome share about pump and syringe
3)formula as I said contains: brb1834, brb dm 350,brb cm 50,AC KERAIN AMINO ACIDS SIL (inci:Cyclopentasiloxane - Keratin Amino Acids),perfume. -
@Abdullah room temperature in same time by manuel mixing with same tool.
@Pharma about acid amino keratin it is another strange phenomenon for the first purchase I worked the formulation with more then 1% level without any issues however in the second purchase even with 0.2% serum loose transparency same thing about the level of perfume I needed to decrease the first level for maintaining the transparency. -
That will be not the level of active surfactants but the level of surfactants and even it is the level of active it is higher then the required.

Nice new information thanks a lot.
-
Thanks a lot for your precious reply, so when xanthan gum can have stability problem versus cationic or it is a fake information? I because I readed it in many resources supposed professional.

The problem did not solved and I guess it will not for water based wax.
-
Actually yes i’am interested with update, and I did not see any mention about this problem’s product and I find it really bad product because there is no waring about seperation.
