Do you have some favorite ionic liquids that you recommend?

Freeze dried fruit pulp powder that is very hygroscopic and will cake without the moisture absorbing packets.

Does anyone have experience using Suttocide A (Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate) as the preservative at high pH above 9-10?
How about Euxyl K940 ( INCI name: Phenoxyethanol, Benzyl Alcohol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Tocopherol)
-
glycerol monolaurate or monolaurin or propanediol or caprylhydroxamic acid to name a few. Any experience with these or other preservatives for pH near 9?

If the pH of the soap is around 9, do I need a preservative?
I see that a lot of these products have citric acid which affects foaming and performance? -
Will the acidification with for instance citric acid as a preservative affect the foam?
Are there any other preservatives that are “more natural” that can function at pH 9? -

Pharma-I enjoyed reading your view. Goes to show you how much we really know about life in general let alone the products that we use intended to benefit us. I salute you.
The body has a window of homeostasis for every substance-too little or too much will result in harmful consequences. Fortunately, we have evolved and employ mechanisms to be able to adapt to return to homeostasis.
Too much or too little oxygen or CO2 or anything can be detrimental or beneficial to our health depending on many factors such as time of exposure, etc.
Short bursts of any substance (or lack of a substance) that alters our homeostasis will lead to stress that results in preconditioning metabolic events that can either be harmful for the weak or beneficial for the strong to survive.
The dose and the time of exposure (and many other factors to name) creates the healthy event or the poison!
Getting back to CO2-any tips with the mask formulation
-
Perry-You said the same words I said when I heard about this new trend in skin care.
Recent reference in a dermatology journal:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26355616/
At first view, I was highly skeptical of how CO2 could provide skin benefits but I keep an open mind since the visible results from the use of an alginate mask have been impressive.
Pharma and EVchem-Can someone with expertise in the formulation of alginate masks help me with a CO2 mask formulation?
-
Will do thx
-
Perry thanks-as an aside, do you or anyone on this site have a USA supplier for
Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)
-
do you know of any Laponite suppliers in the USA? Thank-you for your comments.

Natrosol is HEC

Pharma said:What about water? It’s a great vehicle and very stable.
Thanks for the water comment but I was looking for something that would provide some viscosity.
