Calculation of hydrophobic lipolphilic balance for all types of attractants in details.
Dear Mohamed Abo Riya ,
The Hydrophobic-lipophilic balance (HLB) is, as you know, historically based on either the Griffin’s method or the Davies’ method.
See for details and formula:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophilic-lipophilic_balance
For a more recent description see:
Pasquali, R. C., Taurozzi, M. P., & Bregni, C. (2008). Some considerations about the hydrophilic–lipophilic balance system. International journal of pharmaceutics, 356(1-2), 44-51.

No personal experience but perhaps the HLB calculator might be of interest:

Some nice examples of calculations can be found here:

Hope this helps you any further.
Best regards.
Dear Rob Keller,
Thanks for answering the question and your cooperation.
