With the significant increase in health awareness among modern consumers, the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries are undergoing a profound shift in safety philosophies. This is reflected in the notable rise in the frequency of keywords like "safe," "natural," and "healthy" in consumer evaluations. This trend is particularly prominent in segments like maternal and infant products, organic foods, and cosmetic care.

The recommended preservative functional ingredient is:

BARENATE HP
INCI: 1,2-HEXANEDIOL, PROPYLENE GLYCOL, HYDROXYACETOPHENONE, PENTYLENE GLYCOL
CAS: 6920-22-5, 57-55-6, 99-93-4, 5343-92-0

Notes

1、Avoid adding strong oxidizing substances in the formula, otherwise there is a risk of discoloration.

2、It is recommended to add the water phase before emulsification or after the end of emulsification, and the addition temperature should be less than 80℃. It can also be dissolved in oil phase to make anhydrous formula.

3, in order to ensure its anticorrosive effect, the user must carry out experiments and analysis to determine whether to meet the special requirements of their products, the specific use of the concentration ratio depends on the sensitivity of the customer's products to microbial contamination, hygiene in the production process. Therefore, the actual optimal use of the concentration ratio is determined by the customer through experiments.
