Have you found anything of those surfactans in powder? I can just find CAPB from China.

Have you found good solution for your glass cleaner?
I have been trying low input 0,1% capryl glucoside and 2% IPA, but it leaving some streaks while evaporationg. Any idea? THanks
-
aren’t all of them in crystal form?
I would need a liquid low viscosity substance to gellify water
Still on the mission to find it 🙁
HELP! <3
-
why would I do that?
-
Yes, this is what I noticed. Glycerin work much better then propylene glycol.
Anyway, I haven’t found any solution for this issue.
-
What would be other alternatives to glycerin for disolvving xanthan gum? Thank you!
-
it does. Maybe the rubbing alcohol I had access too wasn’t pure as claimed.
-
I am for about 7 pH. Any suggestion about pH? Thank you!

Well, it’s a concentrate that you dissolve in tap water. Do you think using chelator might resolve the problem? What’s the best chelator and how much to use?
MGDA would be ok?

I have MGDA in powder. I will check it out.

I have tried using Betaine (maybe not the best source), but I think it didn’t help. Even more, the foam got worse 🙁
The seller claimed it’s like 96%+ Betaine. I will try to get it from another source.
Plus this Betaine I got has a funny, kind of unpleasant smell. Do you think it’s ok?
Maybe those 4% are making it don’t work properly.

Yes, it would be best to achieve the option of powder refillis that you can dissolve at home in tap water.
I aim around 5-6ph and also using MGDA as a chelating agent 🙂
-
Thank you for that reply!
It would prefer to have refills that dissolve in water. I was thinking about the mix of sodium benzoate and gluconolactone (about 0,3% in total), but it could be too little. I have heard that sodium benzoate might be harsh for the skin. Maybe I would add also Phenoxyethanol.
I will definitely try Betaine, but if you have any other suggestions that would be so great! 🙂
-
By increasing betaine you meant: Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Coco Betaine or Betaine? 🙂
-
Betaine sounds like a great idea. I will definitely try it.
The problem with starch or tapioca is that it doesn’t dissolve enough in water. I am considering using it with foam pump, so undissolved parts would be sticking the pump (like SCI)
-
What cationics would add a slip? Help 🙂
-
How did this formulation work for you? Thanks!
-
Even if the input of CAPB and SLS would be rather small? Like 1% SLS and 1% CAPB?
-
THe point is to use as little CAPB as possible in this formulation. Thank you!
