hasanarsan: Thank you!
thebrain: Amazing, I did 30% cocamidopropyl betaine and 10% SCI and it worked like a charm. It was a little tricky to dissolve into the water phase but stick blending did the trick (and not much foam due to blending either, thank goodness). So thank you so much! -
thebrain: Thank you! I’ll try formulating a test batch with 30% cocamidopropyl betaine and 10% SCI and see how it goes. Does your mix turn completely clear when dissolved or does it look white/cloudy? I’m just wondering for reference, it’s been such a long time since I did this formula so I’m not really sure what it should look like when completely melted.

Chemist1: I got a hold of the SCI powder available at Gracefruit and it contains Stearic acid so thought it was worth mentioning. Stearic acid has a pretty low melting point though so I don’t know if this could be contributing to this issue. I wanted to purchase the powder thinking that it would solubilize easier than noodles/flakes.
David: Hej och tack för tipset! I’m a beginner formulator so I still purchase from suppliers such as Gracefruit/Soapkitchen so excuse me for lacking a bit of knowledge in ordering from bigger suppliers like Akzo, I can only find an option to request sample on the site so not really sure how to order a larger quantity, but I’ll look around!Also, do you use a regular water bath in normal room temperature and there are no issues? In this case I need to try this SCI.
