Clear Fragranced Deodorant Stick

This simple deodorant stick formulation uses Sodium Stearate OP-100 V as the structurant and vegetal-derived Spectrasolv^® DMDA (Dimethyl Capramide) to provide clear sticks with faint opalescence at 0.5% fragrance. Increased Spectrasolv^® DMDA and fragrance levels reduce the stick setting temperature.

PREPARATIVE PROCEDURE

1	To the main vessel, with appropriate mixing and handling capabilities, add phase A, start mixing and heat to 70°C.
2	Slowly (to prevent clumping) add phase B to phase A.
3	When the batch is crystal clear and completely free of undissolved material add phase C.
4	Correct for any water loss, and then commence very slow cooling (to prevent set up of the product on the vessel walls) with strong mixing without aeration.
5	Add phase D (Belle Aire Fragrance #19699) at 60°C. Continue mixing and fill product when uniform and about 3°C above the set point for the product.
