Sym-White Oil Substitution and Incorporation Method
คำถาม
I am working with Sym-White and need clarification on its incorporation into a formulation. Can mineral oil be substituted with other oils like Fractionated coconut, Lipid Soft Lite, or other natural oils for dissolving/incorporating Sym-White? What is the recommended method for adding Sym-White to a cream base? I've heard it can be dissolved in oils or glycols such as Ethoxydiglycol or Propylene Glycol, but is there a specific technique (e.g., pre-dissolving in oil vs. adding directly to the finished cream base) that provides optimal results, especially considering its similarity to Activated Resorcinol (4-Butylresorcinol)?

Sym-White Oil Substitution
Based on the information provided:
Yes, you can substitute mineral oil with other oils like Fractionated coconut, Lipid Soft Lite, or other natural oils in a Sym-White formulation.
Sym-White has a structure similar to Activated Resorcinol (4-Butylresorcinol). It can also be dissolved in glycols such as Ethoxydiglycol and Propylene Glycol, although using oil is generally more effective for dissolving it.
However, experimental results suggest that the most effective method for incorporating Sym-White is not to pre-dissolve it in oil, but rather to add it directly to the cream base at the final step, provided the cream base already contains oil.
In summary:
- Mineral oil can be replaced by other oils.
- Sym-White can be dissolved in oils or certain glycols.
- For best results, add Sym-White directly to the finished cream base (containing oil) rather than pre-dissolving it in oil first.
