EUXYLK 700 is a liquid cosmetic preservative, which can be used in leave-on as well as rinse-off products. EUXYL K 700 was developed for use in cosmetic formulations with a skin-friendly pH value up to 5.5. EUXYL K 700 has a broad, balanced spectrum of effect against bacteria, yeasts and mould fungi as well as a good vapour phase effectiveness. As a result of the special preparation, the tendency to discolouration known for sorbic acid can be reduced or prevented. In addition EUXYL K 700 can be stored for a longer period.

SENSIVA PA 40 is a synergistic blend combines the antimicrobial activity of phenylpropanol and caprylyl glycol with the boosting and skin care properties of naturally-derived propanediol. The mild moisturiser propanediol improves the skin feel of formulations while enhancing the efficacy of antimicrobial components. Caprylyl glycol acts as an excellent booster for the antimicrobial properties of the nature-identical fragrance ingredient phenylpropanol. Additionally sensiva® PA 40 provides a very faint flowery scent which can mask possible unpleasant odours of other ingredients in formulations.

MIKROCOUNT DUO is a ready-to-use device with two media solidified onto a plastic support used for total plate count and yeast and mould detection for microbiological monitoring of surfaces with inactivation of disinfectants.

EUXYL K 340 is fully effective both in anionic as well as cationic systems. High pH values (> pH 8.0) should be avoided. Acidic pH values have no negative influence on the effectiveness. EUXYL K 340 proved to have good chemical compatibility with anionic surfactants such as sulphates, ether sulphates and sulphosuccinates, as well as with non-ionogenic surfactants. Ethoxylated surfactants may lead to loss of effectiveness.
