Preservative and solvent

Practical formulation guide
Usage level: As a preservative in pharmaceutical preparations, usually at 1–2 %. As a solubilizer, at 5 % or more.
How to use and incorporate: Add according to its maximum temperature, usually during cool-down (below 40–45 °C/104–113 °F), dissolved or premixed in the phase indicated by the data sheet. Check that the final pH of the formula is within its effective range.
Formulation tips:
  • Preservation depends on the whole formula: validate the system with a microbial challenge test.
  • Organic acids (benzoic, sorbic, dehydroacetic) are only effective at acidic pH (approximately ≤ 5.5). Extracts, hydrosols, proteins and starches increase the demand for preservative.
  • Follow good manufacturing practices: purified water, sanitized utensils and clean packaging.
Compatibility: Check compatibility with nonionic surfactants, proteins and some polymers, which may reduce its effectiveness.
Storage: Protect from air and light in tightly closed amber containers.
Precautions: Normatividad: The product meets the purity requirements for food additives established in the EC directives and the German food additive purity regulations, and does not exceed the established limits for arsenic, lead, copper and zinc. Keep away from fire, avoid eye contact, wear gloves.
Technical information for formulators: This sheet describes industrial uses of the raw material in the development of cosmetic products. It is not an efficacy claim for any finished product. The person responsible for the formulation must validate the concentration, compatibility and claims of their product in accordance with applicable regulations.
