Preparation:

• Add the ingredients of Phase A to the vessel and heat to 80 – 85°C. • In a separate vessel, mix the ingredients of Phase B whilst heating to 80 – 85°C.

Return to the stirrer and allow to cool to 40°C. • Once below 40°C, add the rest of the ingredients in order, stirring well between additions. • Check pH and viscosity.
