Fall is upon us, and life indeed starts all over again for the Midwest SCC.

Our season began with the return of our monthly dinner meetings after summer break. We had a nice crowd at Nia in Chicago’s West Loop -- with Lubrizol speaking about their exciting HEUR technology. Next will be our Mingle in the Midwest on October 9 in Racine WI. This event is organized by Lisa Kringas, Lisa Flugge-Berendes and Sandy Schantz. We hope to see our WI folks show up big in your home state and we hope IL contingent to head over the border and make a day out of it if you can (and if your company will allow). As always we’d love our IA and IN folks to join as well – we know it will be a bit of a hike but it’s a special event if you are able.

The Mingle in the Midwest details are on page 6-7 of this SCCOOP issue as well as on our website. Note that those who are interested can partake in complimentary transportation from the Oak Brook area to Racine.

The Mingle begins with an SCJ Campus Tour at 3:30p – which includes 2 buildings designed by the midwest’s own Frank Lloyd Wright and 1 building designed by the world renowned architect Norman Foster. And afterwards over Social Hour and Dinner we have a great speaker from Dow talking about various regulatory matters impacting our personal care silicones.

October is also the month where we count on you to vote in our 2019 Chapter and National SCC Officers and Board. Keep your eyes open for your electronic ballet. We are thrilled to bring some fresh new faces and perspectives to the Midwest SCC leadership team.

Member renewal is also upon us! Anyone who renews by October 1 will be enrolled in a gift card drawing for $100. Anyone who renews by November 1 enrolls in a gift card drawing for $50. (And those of you already registered – thank you! – and you will be part of the $100 gift card raffle).

Scholarship applications are on our website and have been mailed to various Midwestern educational institutions. The will be awarded at our November meeting at Café La Cave – where we will honor our Emeritus members, participate in Toys for Tots, install our new chapter 2019 officers, and award the Stanley Allured Lifetime Midwest SCC Members. We pack a lot into that meeting but it all seems to work – as it’s a favorite meeting of the year for many of our Midwest cosmetic chemists for sure!

Enjoy the color of the leaves, the cooler temperatures and all that Fall has to offer – because we all know Winter may well be here before we know it!

One of the most common questions we get here on Chemists Corner about formulating is what preservative to use. Before I go into a long explanation about how this is a complicated question, here’s a quick answer.

What preservative should I use? – short answerUse a paraben like Methylparaben or Propylparaben, a formaldehyde donor like DMDM Hydantoin or Imidazolidinyl Urea or both types.

These have been safely used for years and are compatible with a large number of different formula types. If product safety is your number one concern, following this advice will work true in the vast majority of your formulations.

How do decide what preservative to use – longer answerOf course, these days things are much more complicated than product safety. When trying to decide what is the best preservative to use that answer depends on numerous factors such as

• Formula type• Ingredients in the formula• Cost tolerance• Packaging• Raw material quality• Manufacturing conditions• Consumer behavior• Marketing position• Where product will be sold

You can’t really answer the question of what is the best preservative to use without more information.

What are you allowed to use?Governments have regulations on the type and amount of preservative you can use. These limitations are different whether you’re selling in the US, Canada, EU, Japan or other places around the world. And in the US, there are also states that have attempted to regulate the preservatives you’re allowed to use. The first thing you have to know to figure out the best preservative is what is legally allowed. You do this by checking the cosmetic regulations that affect you.

In addition to government regulations, the store where you want to sell your product may have limitations on what you’re allowed to use. Whole Foods has a specific list of banned ingredients for cosmetic products and many of these are preservatives. Also, your brand mar-keting position or your consumers’ biases may prevent you from using specific preservatives.

When figuring out what the “best” preservative to use, figure out what you are allowed to use first.

SCCoop NEWSLETTER • SEPTEMBER 2018 • VOL. L • NO. 6 • PAGE 5

What type of formula are you making?The next factor in deciding what is the best preservative is identifying the product type.

Is the product meant to be left on the body? Some preservatives are fine to use when the product is going to be rinsed off (e.g. Methylisothiazolinone . Other preservatives are better for products left on the skin because they don’t cause allergic reactions.

Is the product anhydrous or does it contain a large amount of water? For many anhydrous systems, you may not have to include a preser-vative. Microbes require some source of water to grow so they don’t usually grow in anhydrous systems. However, I recommend including preservatives even in anhydrous formulas because water can get in the product during use which could lead to problems of contamination.

What type of ingredients are you using?The type of ingredients in your formula will be an important factor in what preservative will be the “best” for your formula. For example, parabens are not compatible with certain proteins. Organic acid preser-vatives are not compatible with cationic and some nonionic materials. Xanthan gum, Lecithin, cellulose gums, can inactivate certain preserva-tives. Kaolin, Titanium Dioxide and Silica can tie up preservatives and make them less effectives. Natural ingredients can contribute to micro-bial growth so you’ll need extra preservation than you might otherwise.

What are your cost constraints?Since preservatives add cost to your formula this is another thing you have to consider when deciding what is the “best” preservative. If you’re looking for a functional, formaldehyde free, paraben free, natural pre-servative, that’s going to cost much more than a standard preservative.

What type of packaging are you using?Product packaging can also influence your preservative choice. If you’re using a screw cap tub you’ll need a more robust preservative system than if you are using a pump product.

What are your manufacturing conditions?The best preservative will also depend on the type of manufacturing conditions you have. Sometimes in production facilities they develop house biofilms inside the manufacturing lines. Theses things can be particularly stubborn and cause contamination to any type of formula. If you are working with equipment that has one of these biofilms, you’ll need a preservative that will not only prevent this contamination but also prevent general contamination of your product.

Best cosmetic preservativesAll this is to say that there is no simple answer to the question, what is the “best” preservative for my system. If you want to know what preser-vative to use, you’ll need to learn about cosmetic preservatives, what ones work in what systems, what ones are allowed in your market and a myriad of other bits of information about your particular situation.

If you want to learn more about preservatives we cover that in our for-mulation course and in this post about cosmetic preservatives.

SCC MIDWEST CHAPTER

October 9, 2018 | SCJ Tour & Dinner Meeting | Racine, WI

Whether you’re a Frank Lloyd Wright fan, a unique aircraft enthusiast or simply love SCJ’s household products, the MWSCC wants to invite you to visit SC Johnson.

SC JOHNSON CAMPUS TOUR (Administration Building, Research Tower and Fortaleza Hall)The Landmarks Tour is perfect for those who want a close, in-depth look at SC Johnson’s inspired architecture. Here’s what you may see on your tour:

Mingle in the Midwest

SC Johnson Administration BuildingDesigned by Frank Lloyd Wright and opened in 1939, the SC Johnson Administration Building is celebrated as one of the top 25 buildings of the 20th century. From its 43 miles of Pyrex glass tubing to the dendriform columns soaring in the Great Workroom, it is truly a unique work of art that reflects the innovation and adventure that are still the spirit of SC Johnson today. The Administration Building is the only Frank Lloyd Wright commercial building still in use today.

SC Johnson Research TowerThe Research Tower was Frank Lloyd Wright’s vision of a vertical complement to the Administration Building. Opened in 1950, the Research Tower is one of the tallest structures ever built on the cantilever principle. It stands 153 feet tall and its central core, which is 13 feet in diameter, extends 54 feet into the ground. All 15 floors of the Research Tower are supported by the “taproot” core, much like a tree supports its branches. In 2013, the Research Tower went through an extensive 12-month restoration, which involved both exterior and interior updates. The Research Tower was opened to the public for the first time in spring 2014.

SC Johnson Fortaleza HallDesigned by world-renowned architect Norman Foster and his firm, London-based Foster + Partners, Fortaleza Hall is a contemporary partner to the innovative buildings and offerings of Frank Lloyd Wright. Opened in 2010, Fortaleza Hall was named for the city in northeast Brazil that was at the heart of two life-changing expeditions by the Johnson family and represents a commitment to the company’s legacy of visionary thinking and inspired architecture. Soaring at the building’s heart is the replica twin-engine S-38 amphibian plane that Sam Johnson flew to Fortaleza, Brazil in 1998.

The SC Johnson Gallery: At Home With Frank Lloyd WrightThe Gallery showcases a rotating selection of Wright’s designs and artifacts and explores the legendary architect’s influence on families and the American home. The Gallery’s current exhibit is showcasing rare Frank Lloyd Wright artifacts and furniture, and art inspired by his designs. The exhibit explores how Wright’s work influenced other famous architects and features models of local landmarks. One of the featured Wright designs is the famed chair with three legs that has been “exploded” to show the design. The chair was specially designed for SC Johnson, and Wright lobbied hard to gain acceptance of the three-legged chair, arguing that if a person had proper posture the chair functioned correctly. Wright eventually approved the SC Johnson chair design with four legs.

Launched in 2015 by the Society of Cosmetic Chemists, the NextGen Initiative was created to help young professionals and students further their education to attain successful and rewarding careers. Bridging the gap between young professionals and established professionals is at the heart of this critical initiative. Brought about by a need to align education and training with workforce needs, our mission is to attract, educate and provide for the advancement of our members

UPCOMING INTRODUCTORY COURSES COSMETIC FORMULATIONS WITH LAB DAY (2-DAY COURSE)1ST DAY CLASSROOM / 2ND DAY LABOCTOBER 22 – 23, 20189:00 AM – 4:00 PM CENTRAL TIME (MONDAY) / 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM (TUESDAY)HELD AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TOLEDO IN TOLEDO, OHIO

Instructed by Art Georgalas and Mark Chandler, this course will be of value to those unfamiliar with cosmetic product formulation, and also of use to those who have been in the industry for a while and would like to add breadth and depth to their formulation knowledge. The course will begin with a scan of cosmetic raw materials, then off to studying one of the more challenging but eminently relevant topics – emulsions. Such subjects as how emulsions break, what to do to fix them, effective formulation strategies (including overcoming those challenging situations), and manufacturing of emulsions. This will be followed by a discussion of such specific topics as sunscreens, color cosmetics, and toiletries.

There will be instruction on the formulation of all sorts of cleansing products as well as hair care formulation basics. Interesting discussions on preservation and enhancing efficacy of formulations will also take place. A new feature of this course will be the opportunity of the participants to put this newfound knowledge into practice in the lab at the fantastic University of Toledo facility.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY FOR COSMETIC CHEMISTS

NOVEMBER 14, 2018 (9:00 AM – 5:00 PM EASTERN TIME)HELD AT NEWARK LIBERTY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT MARRIOTT

Instructed by Tony O’Lenick, this course offers a review of the concepts of organic chemistry applied to raw materials the formulator uses every day. Understanding the chemistry makes understanding the application in formulation easier.

All too often I am asked – Organic Chemistry Who needs it?- Because for many of us, organic chemistry is a subject from long ago and far away. For others, it is a topic we have learned on the job, having come from other academic fields into our industry. Regardless of which of the two describes your particular situation, the answer to the question “Who needs it?” is we all do. Organic chemistry employs a language that allows us to clearly and precisely define our products, raw materials and processes used to make them. – Tony O’Lenick
