SENSIVA SC 50 is a globally approved, versatile and multifunctional additive, as well as a very effective deodorant active. As an emollient, it improves the skin feel of cosmetic formulations. sensiva® SC 50 reliably inhibits the growth and multiplication of odour-causing bacteria, while at the same time not affecting the beneficial skin flora. Additionally, it can boost the efficacy of traditional preservatives and act as anti-microbial stabiliser in combination with other cosmetic ingredients.

SENSIDIN DO combines the well-known deodorant and skin care properties of ethylhexylglycerin with the antimicrobial properties of octenidine HCl. The synergistic combination of these active ingredients provides good efficacy in deodorants at very low use concentrations. In order to achieve practical use concentrations for deodorants, this combination has been diluted with the widely-used solvent and humectant, propylene glycol. sensidin® DO reliably inhibits the growths and multiplication of odour-causing bacteria on the skin. sensidin® DO is a clear colourless to light yellow liquid concentrate with a slight characteristic odour.
