Silver Citrate Solution

Product Overview

Silver Citrate solution is a powerful, 100% bio-based antimicrobial that provides rapid, broad-spectrum protection at extremely low concentrations. By stabilizing silver ions within a citric acid complex, this solution remains highly active while offering superior water solubility compared to pure silver salts.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Rapid Antimicrobial Action: Highly effective against a wide range of bacteria (Gram-positive and Gram-negative), yeast, and mold.

  • High Water Solubility: Supplied as a ready-to-use liquid that is readily soluble in water, ensuring clear and stable formulations.

  • Low Usage Levels: Exceptional potency allows for effective protection at dosages +1

Formulation & Stability Guidelines

  • Optimal pH Range: Most effective in formulations with a pH register to find out

  • Light Sensitivity: To prevent discoloration (darkening), products containing Silver Citrate should be stored in opaque or UV-protected packaging.

  • Processing: It is recommended to add Silver Citrate solution during the cooling phase to maintain maximum stability.

    Applications: Ideal for clear gels, facial tonics, deodorants, and anti-acne treatments.
