Description
Sodium Benzoate
Sodium Benzoate is a widely used preservative known for its effectiveness in preventing the growth of bacteria, yeast, and fungi in cosmetic, personal care, and food products. It is a safe and gentle option often used in formulations such as lotions, creams, shampoos, and oral care products.
This white, crystalline powder dissolves easily in water and works best in formulations with a pH below 7, ideally between 3 and 5.5.
Typical usage rates range from 0.1% to 0.5%, depending on the product and formulation requirements.
