Im making a shampoo and i want to use peg 150 and no other thickener. I want to conquer this chemical. It wont dissolve in hot water, nor heated surfactants. So how does this chemical dissolve. Iv tried 2%, 1% and 0.5% but stil it clumps.

Hi, I managed to dissolved it in heated surfactants! It didn’t dissolve completely al the beginning, it became some kind of gel, but I still put it in the mixer for a while, and then left it there overnight (with no hopes of anything, just tired). Next morning it was completely dissolved!

So, next time: I heated it, got the jelly thing again, then just left it in the mixer for about an hour and saw as it dissolved. 

I ended up not using it because it was creating conflicts with the pearl in my shampoo, but I was able to dissolve it at least.

@natzam44 yes, it is a solution! Will do the 2-3 drop process! Thanks :smiley:

Hey @natzam44 thank you for your answer! Would you swap the cetrimonium chloride for another ingredient? or just leave as it is at 0.5%?

I’ll definitely work with the salt! Thanks
