Application
UniProtect 1,2-PD (Natural) is a compound recognized for its functional activity in cosmetic formulations (as a solvent and preservative) and the benefits it brings to the skin:
UniProtect 1,2-PD (Natural) is a moisturizer that can retain moisture in the superficial layers of the epidermis. It is composed of two hydroxyl (-OH) functional groups, which have an affinity for water molecules, making it a hydrophilic compound. Therefore, it can retain moisture in the skin and hair fibers, preventing breakage. It is recommended for the care of dry and dehydrated skin, as well as weak, split, and damaged hair.
UniProtect 1,2-PD (Natural) is often used as a solvent in products. It can dissolve various active substances and ingredients and is frequently added to formulations to stabilize mixtures. It does not react with other compounds, making it an excellent solvent.
As a preservative, it can limit the growth of microorganisms and bacteria in formulations. UniProtect 1,2-PD (Natural) can protect skincare products from microbial growth, thereby extending the product’s lifespan and maintaining its effectiveness and safety over time. It can also protect the skin from harmful bacteria, particularly Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis, which are commonly found in wounds and may cause noticeable body odor, especially in the underarm area.
