D-Panthenol 75% W is a liquid form of provitamin B5 , added to cosmetics for moisturisation , support of skin barrier recovery and hair conditioning. Both skin and hair tolerate it well, which is why it ranks among the most commonly used active ingredients in formulations for dry, irritated and sensitive skin and in care for stressed hair. The raw material contains 75 – 78.5 % D-panthenol dissolved in water. It is suitable for both rinse-off and leave-on products and is compatible with all common types of surfactants. Key benefits Moisturisation – panthenol acts as a humectant, binding water in the skin and hair shaft. Its most pronounced effect is in leave-on products, where it remains on the skin longer. Skin barrier recovery – supports skin regeneration after shaving, sun exposure, frequent washing or exposure to surfactants. Soothing effect – reduces the feeling of tightness and redness, which is why it has proven itself in children's cosmetics, after-shave products and intimate hygiene. Hair conditioning – improves elasticity and shine of hair, eases detangling and reduces brittleness. Suitable also for colour-treated and damaged hair. Broad compatibility – its non-ionic character allows it to be combined with anionic, cationic, non-ionic and amphoteric surfactants as well as with alcohol. Use in formulation It dissolves in water and tolerates alcohol as well. It cannot be incorporated directly into oils or anhydrous balms, where it would separate. In tonics, serums and gels it is added directly into the water phase while stirring. In emulsions it is safer to wait for
