Symsave H

SymSave® H is a white to beige crystalline powder that serves as a nature identical multifunctional for high-performance cosmetics. While it serves primarily as a dose-dependent antioxidant and soothing agent, it is most prized by formulators for its ability to significantly boost the efficacy of broad-spectrum preservation systems.

  • Superior Stability: Remains stable across a wide pH range and under extreme temperature conditions with no reported emulsion destabilization.

Formulation & Solubility Profile

  • Solubility: Soluble in phenoxyethanol, glycerin, ethanol, pentylene glycol, and propylene glycol.
  • Versatility: Suitable for skin care, hair care, sun care (SPF 30 tested), body washes, and wet wipes.
