Preparation:

Production Heat phases A and B separately to about 80 deg C. Stir phase B into phase A and homogenize. Stir phase C into combined phases A and B and homogenize. Cool down to 40 deg C whilst stirring. Add phase D. Adjust the pH value with phase E to about 6.5. Add phase F and homogenize. Cool to room temperature whilst stirring. Recommendation: Manufacturing without inert gas. Packaging has to be done in oxygen-impermeable containers, eg Aluminium-lined tubes
