@Gunther, i just want to get a little more clarity on your article above. Since i make shampoos all who are around 1200 - 3000 mpas then i should use a 8mm hole at the bottom of the cup?
-
why do say the surfactants make this sticky? You have a very low ASM?
-
@belassi why would you take out the glyceral oleate? And would you substitute with lamesof
-
Try this. Its in a easy format to go through.

the na2 edta is 4X more expensive here than the Na4 edta. Usage of 0.2% seems to be the most popular %

@chemicalmatt hope you are well. Please let me have a bit more info on the book title for Des Goddard
-
@Belassi, I hope that you have recovered. I had wondered where you were as i did not see any comments from you for a while.

@taher , polyquat 10 needs heating to disolve completely whereas you could get away using polyquat 7 as a cold process
-
@Taher, what did you decide to do with the poly quats?
-
@ 2cde sorry

before becoming a belassi follower i used 10 + 2 CAPB + CDE without any issue for years. now just use LGC sorb + sodium cocoamphoacetate + CAPB
-
Belassi also uses LGC Sorb.

wow thanks Perry
-
@antmagn 1% lamesoft works for me.
-
@zaidjeber Thank you.
@ perry. Thanks again.Using Mr Belassi’s advice i have reformulated a sles free shampoo. Am just trying to tweek the formulation to be able to have a comparable foam profile. This will help going forward.

the South African market loves Argan. The marketing people has made it out to be the best thing since sliced cheese for ladies hair.
-
you know mr Balassi and Perry are the super experts on this. I find what works best for me is about 1% panthenol because it is so expensive here. I have seen it as high as 3%. I use tiny amounts of argan oil
-
i use the same also at 1%

Initially i was also stuck for a mixer as these type of model do not ship to South Africa. I eventually used a standard desktop drill press with a vsd attached. That worked well for some time until i needed a homogenizer. struggled for about 18 months to get a homogenizer from china or india as locally they just do the most expensive stuff in the world (Silverson). ended up buying at a distressed auction for a 10th of the second hand price.

Belassi do you have a spec sheet of that combo?
-
Thats cool i assume you also going to add some puffer ingredients such as pathenol etc etc

euxyl pe9010
