Question

Posted on: March 6 2013

What is the formula for a carbopollotio in the following preparation: Liquor Carbonis detergent 5% Allantoine 2% Carbopollotio AD 100% DT 100ML

Answer

The question is not very clear because it does not specify a veded or fat-free lotio.

If a is asked you can make:

paraffin oil 10
Vaseline 5
cetyl alcohol 1
stearic acid 3
self-emulsifying glycerinemonostearate 3
Propylene glycol 5
carbopol 0.2
triethanolamine 0.2
water up to 100 g
the self-emulsifying glycerinemonostearate can be replaced by Cetomacrogol.

a fat-free would correspond to a water-diluted carbopol gel.
