Caprylhydroxamic Acid (Qingdao Licang Justin Biology Center)

Caprylhydroxamic Acid by Qingdao Licang Justin Biology Center is a 100% natural antimicrobial agent for preservative-free and paraben-free claims. It provides excellent biostatic and fungistatic activity even at neutral pH where many other antimicrobials fail to be effective (optimum range pH 4-7.5).

• It is compatible with most cosmetic ingredients and can be used in emulsions, anhydrous, and surfactant systems.
• It can interact with residual iron found in some types of clay (e.g. bentonite, silicates) producing a slight orange color.
• Caprylhydroxamic Acid incorporates a novel chelating agent, caprylhydroxamic acid (CHA), which has been proven to work synergistically with other ingredients such as medium chain (C6-C10) terminal diols/esterdiols/etherdiols and aromatic alcohols.
