Solubilizing properties Synergistic combination between AMIDET N and PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil 12:7:1 AMIDET N : PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil : Water Solubilizer 0.5% Jojoba Oil 2% Jojoba Oil PEG-40 H Castor Oil Turbid White AMIDET N Turbid White Blend Clear Clear These formulations have good foamability and good skin-care properties.
AMIDET N as Liquid Co-emulsifier Due to its emulsifying properties in O/W systems, AMIDET N can help to incorporate dimethicones efficiently into formulations. The best combination to emulsify silicones is: 3:1:1 Silicone : AMIDET N : Water This blend is a clear viscous gel, easily incorporated into formulations at room temperature.
