Activonol Green-Hinocare

Activonol Green-Hinocare is a water-soluble, synergistic preservation alternative designed for high-performance natural cosmetics. It leverages the antimicrobial and chelating properties of Hinokitiol—a tropolone compound sourced from upcycled Cupressaceae wood—and Caprylhydroxamic Acid to provide a complete, broad-spectrum defense system in a user-friendly glycol carrier.

Key Features & Technical Benefits

  • Synergistic Antimicrobial Spectrum: Hinokitiol provides dominant activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, while Caprylhydroxamic Acid offers targeted, high-potency protection against yeasts and molds.

  • Advanced Dual-Chelation: Both active components function as chelating agents. This metal-ion binding not only disrupts microbial cell membranes but also stabilizes the formulation against oxidation and discoloration.

  • Global Compliance: Fully NMPA registered, making it an ideal choice for brands targeting the Chinese market.

Formulation & Processing Guidelines

  • Recommended Use Level: register to find out

  • Solubility: Fully water-soluble, allowing for straightforward incorporation into toners, serums, and the water phase of emulsions.

  • Carrier Profile: The Butylene Glycol base acts as a humectant and penetration enhancer, ensuring even distribution of the actives.

  • Applications: Suitable for skin care, hair care, and all water based systems.
