Mixing Procedure:
- Add Deionized Water, Glycerin and #17114 Xirona® Magic Mauve to the main tank with regular mixing.
- With fast mixing, add Carbomer® 980 polymer to the main tank. Ensure the batch is uniform and begin heating batch to 75-80ºC (167-176ºF).
- In an auxiliary tank, add Brij™ C20-SO, Brij™ S721, NEOBEE® M-5 COSMETIC, WECOBEE® M, STEPAN-MILD® GCC, Cetearyl Alcohol and Cetyl Alcohol with regular mixing and begin heating to 75-80ºC (167-176ºF).
- When both the main tank and auxiliary tanks are at 75-80ºC (167-176ºF), add the contents of the phase 3 from the auxiliary tank to the content of the main tank (phase 1 & 2) with fast mixing.
- When uniform, homogenize the batch at 5100 rpm for 1 min/kg. Transfer back to propeller mixing and begin cooling batch to less than 40ºC (104ºF).
- When the batch is less than 40ºC, add Microcare® BDB and fragrance to the batch with regular mixing until batch is uniform.
- Use Citric Acid and Sodium Hydroxide to adjust batch pH as needed (using diluted solutions or granules).
*Note: The INCI name for Microcare® BDB from Thor is: Benzyl Alcohol (and) Dehydroacetic Acid (and) Benzoic Acid.
