Importance of water in liquid formulations

Water is the major constituent in most of the liquid formulations. Many formulators tend to forget this aspect and feel what harm can water do to the formulation. This is where the formulator is wrong. Water as such consists of various minerals depending upon the source. Many of these minerals tend to destabilize the liquid formulations. Minerals like calcium, magnesium, iron, other minerals in smaller quantities also tend to reduce the foaming action, we generally tend to add more surfactant to enhance the foaming in hard water, but actually if your water quality is good the surfactant levels can be reduced and there is a direct savings in the formulations. My suggestion is anyone seeking to manufacture liquid formulations must invest in a good reverse osmosis system and use only ro water to formulate the liquids. This gives a better product clarity, stable product, better viscosity and hence gives big savings and perfect formulation. Reverse osmosis machines have become more economical and hence is a must for any formulator.

Checking the PH value

The PH value of the cleaner is of utmost importance. Every mfr has to understand what PH is and how to check the PH value. You can get yourself a PH strip from the laboratory chemical supplier store.

The PH strip consists of a range of values from 2 to 12.5 with different colour patches. each colour patch represents the corresponding PH value.
So when u dip the PH strip in the liquid u would be able to know the PH value of the liquid.
The range from 2 to 6 is acidic in nature (with 2 most acidic and 6 slightly acidic)
The value 7 is considered neutral and balanced (i.e. does not harm the human skin)
The range from 8 to 12.5 is considered alkaline (with 8 being slightly alkaline and 12.5 very alkaline)

We will be coming across the PH in our everyday products which we use. The PH value of the products mfrd should be correct to get the correct efficancy of the product.
