KEM DIOL 10

Kem Diol 10 is a liquid preservative based on the globally accepted preservative Phenoxyethanol enhanced by the multifunctional Caprylyl glycol that has an emollient and preserving boosting effect.This combination provides broad spectrum protection to a variety of cosmetics without pH restrictions and with no impact on the odour, colour and viscosity of formulations.
Kem Diol 10 is an efficient and versatile alternative in cosmetic preservation without controversial ingredients that meets the stringent demands of modern market for safety, efficacy and global approval.
Kem Diol 10 is a broad spectrum preservative active against bacteria & yeasts with limited action on moulds. In this system the Caprylyl glycol boosts the antimicrobial performance of Phenoxyethanol and help to decrease the amount of preservative needed. Caprylyl glycol is a C8 linear diol that acts as preservative booster, it destabilizes the microbial membrane and promotes the entry of phenoxyethanol into the microbial cell.
