DESIGN OF EXPERIMENTS IN FORMULA, PROCESS AND PACKAGE DEVELOPMENT

ABSTRACT

B. THOMAS CARR Carr Consulting

Wilmette, IL

Statistical Design of Experiments (DOE) is a powerful tool for researchers to use to belter understand and optimize every aspect of their products. DOE can be used effectively at every stage of the product development cycle. Earty on It can be used to efficiently Identify the ingredients, process parameters and packaging variables that Impact the quality of the finished product. That allows researchers to focus on high-Impact variables and to avoid wasting time on studying variables that have Illtle or no Impact on the quality of the product. Later in the development cycle, DOE can be used to understand how multiple variables work together to deliver synergistic benefits or antagonistic detriments.

A successful product is more than the sum of its parts. Understanding how the product variables Interact with each oth8f is crucial to developing highly successful products. Ultimately, DOE can be used to identify the ingredient levels, the optimal conditions and the sensitivity of the product to deviations from the optimal conditions, This allows developers to understand how to achieve the best compromise, for example, of maximum consumer satisfaction with maximum efficacy and optimal stability while at the same time staying within the practical constraints imposed by regulatory and cost factors.

Examples will be used to illustrate the advantages DOE provides over other research approaches and to dispel some of the myths about the weaknesses and disadvantages of DOE.

SPEAKER BIO Tom Carr has over twenty-five years experience in applying statistical techniques to all phases of research on consumer products. Prior to founding Carr Consulting in 1995, he held a variety of business and technical positions in the food and food ingredient Industries. He also is actively involved in the continuing education of researchers and SCientists, both In the United States and Internationally.

Tom Is co-author of Sensory Evaluation Techniques, 4th Ed, and Sensory Evaluation in Quality Control and is a member of the Editorial Review Board of the Journal of Sensory Studies. In addition, he serves In Chainnan and Delegate capacities for the ASTM (American Society of Testing and Materials) and the ISO (International Standards Organization). Through his work with ASTM, Tom has extensive experience in the design and analysis of data collected to support advertising claims and has served as an expert witness for ad·claim disputes.

Tom earned his SA Degree in Mathematics from the University of Dayton and his M,S. In Statistics from Colorado State University. He is a member of the Sensometric SOCiety, the American Statistical Association, and the Institute of Food Technologists.

i-+ f f It.s hard to believe, but the "official" summer season is already winding down!! And as you all know, that means things are ramping up here at MWSCC Central. We've had our break and now we're ready to bring you more fantastic educational opportunities.

For our next event we will return to our regular scientific dinner meetings with a talk about Design of Experiments at Carlucci Restaurant in Downers Grove. DOE Is a great way to maximize the power of the work you do in the lab for product or process optimization. The fundamentals of DOE apply all the way from raw material to finished good development, so don't miss out on this one. Carlucci also happens to be a great restaurant, so you can't go wrong! As always we'll be continuing our attendance contest, trivia, and raffles.

In October we'JI have our annual Technical Symposium. This year's theme Is "Natural? Green? Sustainable? Fact versus Flctlon from a Formulator's Perspective." Rather than having yet another forum for folks to pitch their latest greenwashed offerings, we're going to be diving deep into what these buzzwords really mean and exploring many of the contradictions and challenges facing suppliers and formulators today in this fast evolving field.

Also In October we' JI be having our election for Chapter and National Officers. This year we're filling the offices of Chair-Elect, Treasurer-Elect, and Secretary. This is a great way to get more involved in our organization (and boost your resume, which never hurts!) [f you're interested in running for a MWSCC office, please talk to Cinda Carlson or me.

Are you aware of all the benefits your membership affords you? Aside from all the educational opportunities (Journal of Cosmetic Science, IFSCC Magazine, Continuing Education Program, monthly meetings, etc.) we also provide a number of Insurance and employment assistance benefits. We have a lot of benefits for unemployed members and even prospective members. You can find more information in this issue of SCCoop or the " Join the sec" area of our website or you can contact me. We're here for you!

Announcing The Midwest Chapter of the SCC 2009 Fall Technical Symposium

Natural? Green? Sustainable?

Fact versus Fiction from a Formulator's Perspective

Tuesday, October 27th at the Westin Chicago Northwest (Itasca ILl

8:00 am 8:45 am 3:15 pm

Check In and Continental Breakfast Program Begins Program Ends

"Natural", "green" and "sustainable" are three of the hottest Industry terms today - yet they are also some of the most controversial for cosmetic formulators. This year's symposium approaches these terms from a formulator's perspective for "Fact versus Fiction." We will not rehash the paraben controversy nor portray "Naturals" In terms of botanicals used strictly for label claims. What we will do is tie these trends together to address what the consumer (and our marketers) really expect - and how to navigate the various definitions, standards and approaches related to the "Green" movement

We will use a similar format to prior years, with a bit of a twist: Our morning session focuses on the perspective of the ingredient supplier. This session includes experts from Cognis, Croda, Rhodia and Stepan - followed by a joint panel Q&A session. The speakers will address such questions as:

• What criteria do suppliers use when considering "green" or "natural" ingredients?

• What tools and resources do suppliers offer cosmetic chemists for Ingredient selection when considering "green" or "natural"?

• What part does "sustalnability" play? How are suppliers meeting this challenge In their products, processes, packaging, transport, etc?

Our aftemoon session includes three more speakers, including Steve Schnittger, Estee Lauder's Executive Director for Microbiology Research & Development. Steve has expertise on a variety of topics related to "Green" formulating. Blastmails and our chapter website provide details on our other speakers and topics.

Registration, company sponsorship and additional information can be found at www.midwestscc.QIP. In recognition artha challenging economy, we are keeping our price point the same as fast year: $105 for sec members and $120 for non·members who register prior to September 30. The first 10 paid registrants will be automatically entered into a drawing for a $50 gift card, so you don 't want to miss out!

Midwest Chapter Golf Outing S'e't: Golf outing a big success by

D.Abbeduto Chair, Midwest SCC

I wanted to give a big thanks to our Inaugural Golf Outing planners and attendees. "was a great showing by everyone involved and I think a great time was had by all. The weather couldn't have been nicer, the food was great, and great prizes were had by all. Judging by turnout during this time of economic doom and gloom, this is going to be a huge regular event! We're still trying to get a feel for if this should be an annual or biennial event. Please send me your feedback on this - your opinion counts!

A few paragraphs about Lisa Hilson the new House Chairperson by

Usa Hilson Consumer Care Manager, T H Hilson

I am happy to be serving the sec Midwest Chapter as your new House organizer. I was former1y the Social Night Chairman several years ago for 4 years.

I received my Bachelor's degree from Northern Illinois University in 1986 and joined the T H Hilson Company, a Midwest Specialty Ingredient Distributor, in 1989. I am proud to say that this is my 20th year selling specialty raw materials in the Chicago markel. T H Hilson Company has been selling into the personal care market for about 10 years. I was promoted to Consumer Care Manager in 2004, which I very much enjoy.

My husband Gregg Kobelinski and I live on Crystal lake. My hobbies include horseback riding, golfing, gardening, traveling overseas, skiing, bike riding, swimming, boating and being with friends and family.

I do not have any children of my own, but enjoy other families' children who spend time with us often. My animal family consists of my loyal companion Sparky - an 8 year old Papillon who I admit loves to run all my errands with me - and my 3 horses Badger, Cocamo, and Troy. They are all my big babies and demand "Mom's" attention!

I look forward to playing a larger role in the SCC Midwest Chapter and getting to know everyone better. I welcome any suggestions you have for unique dinner venues so please feel free to share your Ideas with mel Lisa@THHilson,com

MWSCC to Participate In ACS Chemistry Day

American Chemical Society will be holding their Chemistry Day event at Depaul University in their new Chemistry building on Saturday, October 24t, 2009. The theme will be ·Chemistry-It's Elemental!~

The elements are the basis of the entire universe and of life on Earth. The elements are an important part of everyday life. They compose the graphite in pencils, the tungsten in light bulbs, neon lights, copper for cooling applications, the sodium in table salt-the list literally never endsl The year 2009 is the 140th anniversary of Mendeleev's Periodic Table of the Elements, and is a wonderful opportunity to investigate and appreciate the discovery and use of the elements in every aspect of our lives.

The Society of Cosmetic Chemists will have a table at the event to demonstrate some principles of chemistry used in the manufacture of personal Care Products. If interested in

volunteering, children are welcome, please contact Chris Daraska at christine,[email protected] or 630-548-4632.
