Cobiostab 400 100 ml

A Gentle Broad-Spectrum Solution for Sensitive Water-Based Formulas

Cobiostab 400 is a modern preservative system designed to protect water-containing cosmetic formulations against bacteria, yeast and mold. Its formula was created as a softer alternative to conventional preservatives, which makes it a popular choice for products marketed toward sensitive skin, baby care lines and naturally positioned cosmetics. This item belongs to the Preservatives and Antioxidants category, where formulators find reliable options for maintaining microbiological stability across every production scale. The 100 ml size fits small-batch and studio-level production well, giving independent brands and formulation labs a steady supply without frequent reordering, and it also works nicely for testing new recipes before scaling up.

The main application of Cobiostab 400 lies in the production of emulsions, creams, lotions, gels, shampoos and other water-based products where microbial growth is a constant risk. The preservative performs reliably across a wide pH range and tolerates the presence of plant extracts, hydrosols and other oxidation-sensitive ingredients without losing efficacy. It should be added at the final stage of production, once the main emulsion has cooled to no more than 40 degrees, to avoid breaking down its active compounds under heat. Recommended dosage typically ranges from 0.5 to 1.5 percent of the total formula weight, with the exact figure depending on the product composition and the intended shelf life.

Cobiostab 400 pairs well with other protective systems, allowing chemists to build a layered preservation strategy. To broaden protection against gram-negative bacteria and improve overall stability, it can be combined with Silver Citrate, known for its strong antimicrobial properties and frequent use in organic and naturally derived formulas. Another common approach is pairing it with plant-derived peptide preservatives such as Leucidal SF Max, which helps build multi-layer protection without relying on formaldehyde-releasing agents. For formulas requiring extra resistance against yeast and mold in complex emulsion systems, many formulators also add NIPAGUARD SCE preservative, which works synergistically with most modern preservation systems.

Beyond the cosmetic industry, preservatives of this type are also used in water-based household chemical products, in certain categories of moisturizing gel additives, and in some pharmaceutical auxiliary formulations where microbiological control is needed without significantly altering product texture. Cobiostab 400 should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources, at room temperature not exceeding 25 degrees. After opening, it is best used within the timeframe indicated by the manufacturer, keeping it away from moisture and contamination to preserve its full preservative efficacy throughout the usage period.

Объясните какой процент ввода? В описании указана концентрация 0,6-2,5%, однако дальше по тексту говорится, что консервант безопасен до 0,1% . Что это означает? Спасибо!

Ответ администратора

Юлия, дозировки рекомендуется самим производителем. 0,6-2,5%-это допустимый процент ввода в рецептуру,но как и много других синтетических консервантов,могут вызвать аллергические реакции,хотя срок хранения будет очень длительным. Для безопасного консервирования в натуральной косметике вводится в проценте 0,1гр. Данный консервант разрешен и одобрен странами ЕС
