PROPORTIONS REQUIRED FOR A PRIMARY EMULSION

   
  (oil:water:gum)
Fixed oils :-  4:2:1
Volatile oils:- 2:2:1
Mineral oils:- 3:2:1
Oleoresins:-1:2:1


        
     

CODE:  LPSO ( apply this for tweens & spans)

for eg .. spans 20  mean     sorbitan mono laurate
              tween 80  mean     Polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate

L :Laurate   - 20
P : Palmitate - 40
S: Stearate -  60

SOLUBILITY

DESCRIPTIVE TERM     -   APPROX VOL OF SOLVENT IN ml/gm OF SOLUTE

Verysoluble                 -   less than 1
Freely soluble              -    1 - 10 
Soluble-    10 - 30
Sparingly soluble   -    30 - 100
Slightly soluble            -   100 - 1000
Very slightly soluble    -   1000 - 10,000
Practically insoluble    -    more than 10,000



STORAGE TEMPERATURE

 Cold   -     2 - 8  degree centi
Cool  -      8 - 25
Room -  temp prevailing in the working area
Warm -between 30 - 40
Excessive heat  -  > 40 degree  



SUCROSE BASED DILUANTS 

Dipac  -   97 % sucrose  + 3% moddified dextrose
Nutab  -  95 % sucrose + 4 % invert sugar
Sugar tab  -  90 - 93 % sucrose + 7 - 10 % invert sugar


Compressibility index / carrs index = tapped density - bulk density / tapped density
hausners ratio = tapped density / bulk density
