BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol - Multifunctional ingredient with preservative properties
BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol is based on the chemical compound 1,2-pentanediol, a member of the alkanediol family, which occurs in two isomeric forms. This structure gives pentylene glycol its exceptional properties, which make it an indispensable ingredient in modern skin care. In addition to its function as a moisturizer and active ingredient booster, it has a proven preservative effect from a concentration of 5 %.
Preservative effect from 5 %
1,2-pentanediol, the chemical basis of pentylene glycol, exhibits a strong antimicrobial effect from an application concentration of 5 %. This effect effectively inhibits the growth of bacteria, yeasts and moulds, thereby stabilizing cosmetic formulations and protecting them from microbial contamination. This makes BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol an excellent alternative or supplement to conventional preservatives.
The antimicrobial effectiveness of this compound helps to extend the shelf life of cosmetic products without resorting to aggressive synthetic preservatives. At the same time, skin tolerance is maintained, making BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol also suitable for sensitive skin types.
Further advantages of the preservative effect
- Multifunctionality: In addition to its preservative effect, 1,2-pentanediol supports moisture retention and increases the penetration of other active ingredients into the skin.
- Compatibility: The chemical stability and versatility of the alkanediol structure allows for easy integration into water and oil based formulations.
- Reduction of synthetic preservatives: The use of BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol from 5 % reduces the need for parabens or other synthetic preservatives.
Recommended application
BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol can be used in a concentration of 5-10% to make the most of its preservative, moisturizing and stabilizing properties. It is ideal for a variety of formulations including creams, gels, serums and masks. Combine it with ingredients such as glycerin or hyaluronic acid to maximize skin care synergies.
Clinical studies and efficacy
Studies have shown that 1,2-pentanediol in its isomeric form as BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol has a reliable and stable antimicrobial effect without irritating the skin. It effectively protects both water-based and emulsified formulations from contamination and extends shelf life. Source: International Journal of Cosmetic Science
Conclusion: BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol - A solution for multifunctional skin care
With the chemical basis of 1,2-pentanediol, BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol offers a unique combination of moisturizing, active ingredient boosting and preservative properties. From a concentration of 5 %, it is a safe, effective and skin-friendly solution for stable and innovative cosmetic products. Rely on BIOLISSE® Pentylene Glycol to add a modern and multifunctional component to your formulations. Sources: Cosmetic Formulation Innovations, Organic Skincare Research
