Amino acid solvent preservative system: HenkelRecent Research Landscape

Microbial instability in aqueous detergents requires synthetic biocides that increase toxicity and regulatory risk. This lever utilizes specific amino acid and solvent ratios to engineer intrinsic self-preservation.

What technical problems is Henkel addressing in Amino acid solvent preservative system?

Liquid detergent visual instability

(10)evidences

High-density liquid detergents suffer from phase separation and chemical degradation of active components. Preventing ingredient breakdown in low-water environments ensures long-term product efficacy and shelf stability.

Surfactant system visual instability

(9)evidences

Incompatibility between polymer additives and surfactant bases leads to cloudiness and poor visual clarity. Achieving transparency ensures product stability and consumer acceptance of premium liquid formulations.

Microbial degradation and skin irritation

(7)evidences

Mild liquid detergents often lack traditional harsh preservatives, leading to rapid microbial growth and product spoilage. Addressing this vulnerability ensures product safety and shelf-life without compromising skin compatibility.
