Description

In rinse-off products:

  • maintains foaming properties in the presence of hard water
  • prevents the precipitation of insoluble salts of fatty acids in soaps
  • efficiency optimal at higher pH (~ 6)

Recommended concentration:

  • O/W emulsions 0.05 – 0.2 %
  • Rinse-off products 0.1 – 0.2 %
  • WORKING WITH sodium phytate

In emulsions:

  • Can be added to the aqueous phase at any step during the formulation process; can be dissolved in cold water
  • Consider the high amount of electrolytes introduced into the emulsion

In formulations with surfactants:

  • Sodium phytate should be added to the aqueous phase before adding the thickener.

Keep in mind the very high pH.

When working with alkali-sensitive raw materials, it is recommended to dissolve sodium phytate in water, then add the appropriate substances.
Perfectly stable in U/W emulsions and aqueous systems.

INCI: sodium phytate
