GreenGard TBG is a broad-spectrum, natural-origin antimicrobial blend designed for superior microbial control. It strategically combines three complementary components: Triethyl Citrate, Glyceryl Caprylate, and Benzoic Acid. This synergistic system is highly effective against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, yeasts, and moulds, offering a robust alternative to traditional preservation systems.
Key Benefits and Performance
-
Triple Mechanism of Action: Combines the deodorising properties of Triethyl Citrate, the membrane-disrupting antibacterial activity of Glyceryl Caprylate (a monoglyceride), and the potent antimicrobial efficacy of Benzoic Acid.
-
Enhanced Deodorizing Performance: The inclusion of Triethyl Citrate—a well-known active that inhibits odour-causing bacteria—makes this blend exceptionally suited for natural deodorant formulations.
-
Broad-Spectrum Efficacy: Provides reliable protection across a wide variety of microbial threats, including bacteria, yeasts, and moulds.
-
Co-Emulsifying Activity: Due to the Glyceryl Caprylate content, the blend provides secondary emulsification support, potentially enhancing the stability of emulsions.
Formulation Guidelines
-
pH Dependency: For maximum efficacy, the formulation should be kept below pH register to find out. This ensures the Benzoic Acid remains in its most active, undissociated form.
-
Target Applications: Positioned for high-performance use in deodorants, skin care, hair care
-
Versatility: The liquid blend is designed for ease of incorporation into diverse cosmetic architectures where natural-origin claims are prioritized.
