Procedure | |
| In the main beaker, combine ingredients of phase A. Mix and heat to 70°C until ethylcellulose is fully dispersed and the gel is clear. In a side beaker, combine phase B ingredients, mix and heat to 65° until powders and waxes are fully dissolved. Combine phases A and B in the main beaker at 65-70°C and mix until homogeneous. Add Flexithix and homogenize until the gel is uniform and smooth while maintaining temperature at 65°C. Turn heat off and let cool down. At 40°C, add phase D ingredients and mix. At 30°C, add phase E and mix until color is uniform. Stop at 25°C. | |
