Product Information

Potassium Sorbate

Potassium Sorbate is an effective antimicrobial preservative widely used in cosmetic and personal-care formulations. It helps control the growth of yeasts, moulds and certain microorganisms, particularly in formulations with an acidic pH.

Potassium Sorbate is the potassium salt of Sorbic Acid and is widely used as a preservative in cosmetic, personal-care, pharmaceutical and food formulations. It is supplied as a white crystalline powder or granules and is highly soluble in water, making it convenient for use in aqueous formulations. PubChem

In cosmetic formulations, Potassium Sorbate is primarily used to help protect products against microbial growth, particularly yeasts and moulds. It is commonly incorporated into creams, lotions, shampoos, conditioners, cleansers and other water-based personal-care products. Its preservative performance is influenced by the formulation pH and the overall preservation system.
