How to Dissolve 12H Fix™ in Alcohol Formulas
Thank you for your question. Based on the product information for 12H Fix™, it requires a specific method for dissolution, especially in formulas without water.
Simply adding 12H Fix™ directly to alcohol will not dissolve it properly.
Correct Dissolution Method:
- Combine with LipidSoft™ Lite: First, dissolve 12H Fix™ with LipidSoft™ Lite. Use a ratio of approximately 1 part 12H Fix™ to at least 2 parts LipidSoft™ Lite.
- Apply Heat: Heat the mixture of 12H Fix™ and LipidSoft™ Lite to 60-70 degrees Celsius while stirring until it is completely dissolved.
- Add to Alcohol Base: Once the mixture is clear and uniform, you can then add it to your alcohol base formula without needing further heat.
This method ensures that the 12H Fix™ is fully dissolved before being incorporated into the final product, allowing it to function effectively as a fragrance fixative.
