Formulation Guide
For laboratory scale manufacturing, pre-mix symbio®solv clear plus MB with perfume and other lipophilic substances to be solubilized at room temperature. Then add water, the aqueous phase or the surfactant base, to the pre-mix under stirring. Adjust pH to 4.5 – 6.5 if necessary. In case of pH drift, use a buffer system like Trisodium Citrate.
If incorporating alcohol, add ethanol at the end of the formulation process, in small portions. If the solution becomes turbid, you can try adding small amounts of solublizer to improve clarity.
symbio®solv clear plus MB is not compatible with vegetable oils, cationic compounds or formulations containing greater than 10% ethanol.
In surfactant-based products: symbio®solv clear plus MB may reduce the viscosity. Adjust viscosity at the end of the formulation process.
Usage Rate: For transparent aqueous solutions 1 : 3 – 1 : 5 (oil : solubilizer) max. 4 – 5%; for surfactant-based products 0.5 – 1.5%
Appearance: Viscous to gel-like, clear to brownish liquid
HLB: ~ 16
