Description
dermofeel® PA-3: This natural chelating agent effectively inactivates metal ions by forming a complex between the chelator and the metal. Metal ions can enter a cosmetic formulation through the production equipment, as impurities from ingredients (e.g. extracts, pigments) and through process water. In cosmetic products, these ions can promote oxidation reactions, may cause discoloration, or impair the foaming properties of surfactants.
