Biokons PA 30

INCI: Propanediol, Phenethyl Alcohol, Undecyl Alcohol, Tocopherol

Biokons PA 30 is an antimicrobial stabiliser for cosmetic formulations and consists of 50% natural and 50% nature-identical ingredients. In the blend, the synergistic antimicrobial effect of phenethyl alcohol and undecyl alcohol is optimised and combined with the boosting and skin-caring properties of natural 1,3-propanediol.
The moisturiser propanediol improves the skin feel of formulations while enhancing the efficacy of the antimicrobial ingredients. Undecyl alcohol acts as an excellent booster for the antimicrobial activity of phenethyl alcohol and reduces the floral, rose-like fragrance of phenethyl alcohol. In formulations without added perfume, the light fragrance of Biokons PA 30 can mask possible unwanted odours from other ingredients.

Biokons PA 30 effectively stabilises cosmetic formulations against microbiological contamination. This new combination of natural and nature-identical ingredients is an excellent solution for cosmetics with natural claims.

Deodorising efficacy
Body odour occurs when sweat, which is odourless in itself, is decomposed by microorganisms. Gram-positive bacteria form substances from sweat ingredients that have an unpleasant odour. Biokons PA 30 inhibits the growth and reproduction of the odour-causing Bacteria.
