kathon the preservatives are coming!
kathon is a series of isothiazolinones, also known as ketamine. Cassone is a mixture of 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (MI) and 2-methyl-5-chloro-4-isothiazolin-3-one (CMI) and inorganic salt stabilizers, usually CMI:MI= 3:1. Cassone is an excellent bactericide, commonly used in cosmetic products, shampoos and conditioners, and is a preservative to control the growth of microorganisms.
kathon is bactericidal by breaking the bond between bacterial and algal proteins, and after contact with microorganisms, it can quickly control their growth, and this control process is irreversible, resulting in the death of microbial cells. Before cell death, the casson-treated microorganisms can no longer synthesize enzymes and secrete substances that have adhesion to the biofilm, and effectively control the microorganisms below the biofilm by penetrating the biofilm adhering to the surface of the cold water system equipment. Characteristics of Casson preservatives:
1, bacteriostatic sterilization, anti-corrosion, long efficacy.
2, good compatibility with various emulsifiers, surfactants, with excellent compatibility.
3, will not change the smell and color of cosmetics, external drugs.
4, not limited by temperature, below 80℃ is better, below 100℃ effective rate of more than 90%.
5, convenient, stable nature, small amount of addition.
Uses of kathon preservatives:
1, 2.5% model is mainly used for cosmetic anti-corrosion, due to low toxicity, wide range of antibacterial action, strong effect and good compatibility of cosmetic raw materials, and can be dissolved in water, easy to use, can be directly added.
2, if it is used with paraben esters, the effect is better. It can also be used as a preservative in paper making, cooling towers, metal cutting oils and paint coatings. Use method and dosage of Casson preservatives:
kathon is a liquid that is directly added to the material at a temperature below 80 ° C and stirred evenly.
1, the amount of ordinary daily cosmetics is 0.2-0.3%.
2, the amount of cosmetics is 0.3-0.5%.
3, the amount of washing products is 0.5-1.0%.
