Product Description
2-phenoxyethanol
Formular: C8H10O2
CAS NO: 122-99-6
Ethylene glycol phenyl ether
2-phenoxyethanol is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial useful for the protection of water-based cosmetic and personal care products, including shampoos, hair conditioners, creams, and baby-care products. Due to its effectiveness against a broad spectrum of bacteria, yeast and fungi,over a wide PH range, 3.0-10.0,it is well suited to provide protection from contamination encountered in the personal care field. In addition, it has both water and oil-solubility

Benefits
Global approvals as a preservative for cosmetics
Effective control against a broad range of bacteria
Excellent performance when used in combination with a wide range of preservatives and fungicides
Low odor level
Compatible with most personal care ingredients
Antimicrobial activity
It has been tested for efficacy against a variety of microorganisms, the minimum
inhibitory concentration(MIC) values demonstrate the spectrum of antimicrobial activity of phenoxyethanol. Test results only demonstrate the innate activity and should not be used as a guide to determine levels to be used in a specific formulation
