Just wondering if i put bho in coconut oil to decarb for capsules will it negate the need for a purge?

Many thanx

Your bho should be properly purged before diluting it with the coconut oil. But no, if you mix unpurged bho, or "tane soup" into coconut oil and decarb it, the residual solvent levels may decrease, but certainly not too much in my opinion. That is also not the correct way to go about it. It should be decarbed and purged before hand.

I thought with the mix being thinner, the gas would purge off easier?

No it won't negate the need for a purge. I decarb in a 250F hot canola oil bath before adding anything to the extract.

Does the Butane emulsify with the cannabis resin?

It doesn't emulsify. It is fully soluble and forms a mixture.

As in theres still full chemical butane and thc molecules? Yeah I think that's the case because I tried to research a different molecule for BHO for my Logo and was unable to find anything.
