Question
Can Disteardimonium Hectorite be dissolved using C12-15 alkyl benzoate?
Answer
Disteardimonium Hectorite Solubility in C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate
Disteardimonium Hectorite does not dissolve in C12-15 alkyl benzoate. Instead, it is dispersed in oil or silicone bases like C12-15 alkyl benzoate.
To activate its thickening properties after dispersing it in the oil phase, you need to add an activator such as ethyl alcohol or propylene carbonate.
