Osmocide™ is a complex with moisturising and preservative-like properties that allows formulators to reduce the level of preservatives in their formulas yet still create safe, long-standing products that resist contamination, as proven by in vitro studies.
Osmocide™ provides a preservative-like effect through osmotic action, the company reports, making it possible to minimize the preservative level of formulations or improve the bacteriological safety of systems that are difficult to preserve.
Osmocide™ is a viscous translucent gel based on sodium polyacrylate, polyols, and water and is characterized by a very large capacity for binding water, which enables it to also provide high moisturization.
