Ever wonder how shampoos, lotions and household cleaners keep you safe and in good health? The secret is in one special ingredient: BIT 85%. But first, what is BIT 85% and why is it critical for the quality of products we use every day?
BIT 85% is a preservative that is widely used in all sorts of products in order to keep harmful bacteria and mold away. One of the most amazing attributes of BIT 85% is its tolerance for pH, which enables a substance to continue to perform even if a product is different pHs. pH is a measure of how acidic or basic a substance is, and such products have varied pH levels. This is the beauty of pH-stable BIT 85%, it's able to adjust to these different pH and still provide protection to the product against spoilage.
Along with its pH tolerance, BIT 85% also supports broad compatibility and can be used in a variety of applications. BIT 85% is present in many everyday products, including cosmetics, and detergents. This compatibility is important for manufacturers looking for a dependable preservative that can perform well in most formulations with no compromise on product quality.
The use of pH-stable BIT 85% in formulations has several advantages. Suspending microbial activity the system, which comprises the antimicrobial and a high HLB emulsifier system, not only protects the product from microbial proliferation and spoilage, but also confirms to formulators that their product will remain as it should. Furthermore, pH-stable BIT 85% is also skin-friendly with no irritation, such that it may be safely employed in personal care compositions, such as shampoos and lotions.
The key to BIT 85%'s pH tolerance is its special formulation. Other preservatives can degrade or become less effective in acidic or alkaline solutions, but not pH-stable BIT 85%. This implies that BIT 85% products are unaltered (with respect to safety and efficacy properties) at any pH.
When choosing the appropriate concentration and when adding it at the appropriate stage to the formulation, manufacturers are able to optimise the compatibility of BIT 85%. When they follow recommended guidelines and best practices, they can rest assured that BIT 85% will function to preserve their products and will do so without any unintended side effects. This upstream approach ensures the end product is what it says it is, a safe and high-quality product, and will strengthen the bond of trust with customers in these products that they rely on every day.
