DMDM HYDANTOIN

Nipaguard™ DMDMH is a preservative that is highly soluble in water and adaptable enough for a wide range of personal care and detergent based products. It can be particularly effective in detergent- based formulations which can have some inherent antimicrobial activity, but which are susceptible to growth of some types of micro-organisms.

It is an effective antimicrobial agent for cosmetics, highly efficacious against gram-negative, gram-positive bacteria and molds. It is stable and active in the pH range 3-9.  It is compatible with anionic, cationic and non-ionic ingredients. For the high water solubility, it is particularly suggested in aqueous systems and emulsions. 

Used in hair care (shampoos, conditioners, gels, mousses), body and face care (toners, gels, lotions, creams, wipes), make-up (foundations, eyeliners, mascaras, powders, wipes), sun products (sunscreens, suntans, aftersuns), bath products (shower gels, bubble baths, handcleaners, intimate, wipes, baby care (shampoos, bath products, gels, lotions, creams, powders, wipes) and raw materials (surfactants, vegetal extracts). 

DMDM HYDANTOIN mempunyai spektrum antimikroba yang luas dan sangat larut dalam air sehingga dipakai sebagai pengawet shampoo. DMDM hydantoin melepaskan formaldehid 0,5-2% dan konsentrasi aman DMDM hydantoin dalam kosmetik 0,1-1%. Konsentrasi bahan ini dalam uji tempel standar sebesar 1% dalam aqua.
