Multifunctional Deodorizing, Antimicrobial Additive

Posted: May 8, 2012

At booth # 321 during the NY SCC Suppliers' Day, schülke inc. will highlight various innovations including its sensiva PA 20 multifunctional cosmetic additive. This ingredient combines the excellent skin care and deodorizing properties of ethylhexylglycerin with the antimicrobial properties of phenethyl alcohol.

Phenethyl alcohol is a nature-identical fragrance ingredient with a mild flowery roselike scent that can mask the unpleasant odors of other ingredients. Its antimicrobial properties are enhanced by the boosting effect of ethylhexylglycerin. The product is also suitable as an antimicrobial stabilizer for preservative-free cosmetics.
