Question
Can 1,3-Propanediol be used to dissolve Boswellia Serrata Extract instead of Propylene Glycol, and what is the required ratio?
Answer
Solubility of Boswellia Serrata Extract
- Boswellia Serrata Extract is recommended to be dissolved in Propylene Glycol.
- The suggested ratio is to use Propylene Glycol at least 6 times the amount of the extract. For example, if using 1% Boswellia Serrata Extract, use at least 6% Propylene Glycol.
- The product information does not specify if 1,3-Propanediol can be used as a direct substitute for Propylene Glycol for dissolving this extract, nor does it provide a ratio for 1,3-Propanediol.
- It is best to follow the manufacturer's recommended solvent and ratio for optimal results.
