  • Examples 1-5 as described by the formulations of Figure 1, are briefly summarized. Examples 2-5 notable contain varying amounts of lota-carrageenan (0.4 wt% to 2 wt%), except Control E (i.e., Example 1) which does not contain any carrageenan. Examples 1-5 contain the humectant Sorbitol at 17 wt%. Examples 1-3 contain sodium carboxymethyl cellulose while examples 4 and 5 do not. Examples 1-4 contain thickening silica while example 5 does not.
  • Example 5 the lowest soluble fluoride drop on a parts per million (ppm) basis (column furthest on the right) is demonstrated by Example 5 by having 2 wt% of lota- carrageenan having only a ppm drop value of 527. The lower the soluble fluoride ion drop, the more stable the formulation. Example 5 had the highest amount of lota-carrageenan between the five examples and therefore demonstrated the best soluble fluoride ion stability among the five formulations. Control E (example 1) had the poorest soluble fluoride stability at 910 ppm.
  • Table 2 below demonstrates that Lambda-carrageenan is the best between the three carrageenans in demonstrating fluoride ion stability on an equal weight basis.
  • Examples 6-10 as described by the formulations of Figure 1, are briefly summarized. Examples 6, 7, and 8 have increasing weight percentages (wt%) of Iota-Carrageen at 1 wt%, 2 wt%, and 3 wt%, respectively.
  • Example 9 has Kappa-carrageenan type at 2 wt% and Example 10 at Lambda- carrageenan type at 2 wt%.
  • Example 10 the lowest soluble fluoride drop on a ppm basis (column furthest on the right) is demonstrated by Example 10 by having 2 wt% of Lambda-carrageenan having only a ppm drop value of 671.
  • Examples 7, 8, and 10 all have equal amounts (2 wt%) of each respective carrageenan type.
  • Lambda- carrageenan (example 10) is the most effective for soluble fluoride ion stability
  • Kappa- carrageenan (example 9) is the least effective at 1047.
  • the increasing amount of Iota- carrageenan of examples 6, 7, and 8 respectively show increasing amount of soluble fluoride ion stability (evidenced by the lower ppm drops of 1011, 828, and 749, respectively).
  • Example 11 contains Iota-carrageenan at 1.4 wt%.
  • Control A (Example 11) and Control B (Example 13) formulations do not have any carrageenan.
  • Control A and Control B formulations both have slightly more sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and thickening silica than Example 11, but notably Control B also has tetra sodium pyrophosphate (TSPP).
  • CMC carboxymethyl cellulose
  • TSPP tetra sodium pyrophosphate
  • Example 12 does not contain carrageenan, but does contain tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TSPP).
  • TSPP tetrasodium pyrophosphate
  • Example 11 is at pH 9.4 and contains 1.414 wt% of Iota-carrageenan, and also notablly contains CMC and silica.
  • Control C (Example 14) and Control D (Example 15) formulations are at a lower pH of 7.8 and 8.3, respectively.
  • Controls C and D both also contain Iota-carrageenan at 2 wt% and 1.4 wt%, respectively.
  • the weight percentages of silica, saccharine, and monofluorophosphate slightly of Controls C and D differ from Example 11. Compared to example 11, Control C and D also has a lower level of calcium carbonate (25 wt% vs. 42 wt%) and higher level of water (65.32 wt% v. 48.96 wt%).
  • Example 11 has the best fluoride ion stability effects at 4 weeks at 60° C having the highest pH of 9.4 by having a soluble fluoride ion drop of 47% compared to Controls C and D which had much higher drop percentage at60% and 58% , respectively. Therefore, the data suggests that pH 8.3 is better than 7.8, and pH 9.4 is better than 8.3 when it comes to fluoride ion stability.
