General Description

NANOACTIV NaBENZOATE, chemically known as Sodium Benzoate, is a widely used preservative in the cosmetic and personal care industry. It is the sodium salt of benzoic acid and is primarily valued for its ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria, yeast, and fungi. Water-soluble and highly stable under acidic to neutral pH conditions, NANOACTIV NaBENZOATE is a go-to preservative in clean-label and natural formulations due to its GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. It is often used in synergy with other preservatives like potassium sorbate or phenoxyethanol.

Uses in the Cosmetics Industry

NANOACTIV NaBENZOATE is commonly found in:

  • Prevents microbial contamination in water-based systems.
  • Extends shelf life by protecting against mold and bacteria in aqueous formulations.
  • Acts as a gentle preservative in leave-on products.
  • Provides microbial protection without irritating the skin.
  • Used in "preservative-free" or minimal-preservative systems where synthetic options are limited.
    Formulators often buy NANOACTIV NaBENZOATE in bulk for eco-conscious and pH-dependent preservation strategies.

Hazards

NANOACTIV NaBENZOATE is generally regarded as safe when used within recommended limits, but awareness of the following is important:

  • Generally low, but high concentrations can cause mild irritation, especially on broken or sensitive skin.
  • Most effective at pH levels below 6; efficacy drops significantly in more alkaline formulations.
  • Should not be combined with ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in high-heat or acidic conditions due to the potential formation of trace benzene (a known carcinogen), though this is rare under typical cosmetic conditions.

Storage & Stability

  • Store in a cool, dry environment in tightly sealed containers. Protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
  • Stable under normal storage conditions and highly soluble in water. Optimal efficacy at pH 3–5.5.
    NANOACTIV NaBENZOATE is available in wholesale and bulk packaging for manufacturers seeking a reliable, skin-friendly preservative that supports clean beauty and safety standards.
