Linatural® PA Plus

Linatural® PA-Plus is a synergistic liquid blend engineered to provide “Clean Beauty” protection without compromising on sensory performance. It utilizes the Phenethyl Alcohol (extracted from corn) as a nature-derived antibacterial and masking agent, while Benzoic Acid acts as the high-potency antifungal anchor. The addition of Glycerin ensures the blend provides immediate skin comfort and ease of formulation.

Key Benefit: A 100% liquid “Double-Action” active that delivers microbial protection and humectancy

Performance & Multifunctional Benefits

  • Broad-Spectrum Protection: Effectively inhibits bacteria, yeast, and mold, providing the robust “hurdle”.

  • Humectancy & Emolliency: Glycerin and the aromatic alcohol work together to bind moisture to the skin while providing a light, emollient film that prevents dryness.

  • Nature-Identical Masking: The Phenethyl Alcohol provides a mild, rose-like floral scent that naturally masks base odors, making it ideal for “fragrance-free” positioning.

Formulation & Handling Guidelines

Linatural® PA-Plus is a stable, non-ionic liquid, but its antimicrobial power is pH-sensitive.
