Potassium Sorbate In Cosmetics Is Safe Preservative for Long-Lasting Formulas
01
Product Description
Potassium sorbate is a potassium salt of sorbic acid, a synthetic preservative widely used in cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals. It is water-soluble, odorless, and effective at inhibiting the growth of bacteria, fungi, and yeasts, thereby extending the shelf life of products. In cosmetics, it is valued for its broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and compatibility with various formulations.
