Sodium Benzoate

Sodium Benzoate is technically the sodium salt of benzoic acid, also known as sodium benzoate . It is produced by neutralising benzoic acid with a suitable sodium base, most commonly sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate, followed by crystallisation, drying and processing into a powder or granular form. This product is supplied as a technical grade . It is not declared as a cosmetic, pharmaceutical or food-grade raw material and is therefore intended primarily for technical, cleaning, laundry, industrial and non-cosmetic use . Do not use it as a replacement for a cosmetic preservative in cosmetic products intended for the skin. Key benefits Water-soluble sodium salt of benzoic acid , suitable for aqueous technical systems. Technical auxiliary raw material for non-cosmetic formulations, especially where a water phase is involved. Suitable for cleaning and laundry blends as an auxiliary component of technical grade. Good compatibility with aqueous solutions , where it can be incorporated easily without the need for heating to high temperatures. Stable powder raw material with easy dosing and good blendability in both dry and aqueous mixtures. Usable in more acidic technical systems , where a more effective undissociated form of benzoic acid may be released from sodium benzoate. Also suitable as an auxiliary component in the development of non-cosmetic aqueous preparations , where it is necessary to work with a soluble organic salt. Suitable for products such as technical aqueous solutions and auxiliary technological mixtures, cleaning products for non-cosmetic use, laundry ble
