Description For Euxyl® PE 9010 to perform effectively in destroying organisms in products already contaminated, a minimum contact time of 48 hours is necessary. Since the effect of Euxyl® PE 9010 takes place through chemical reactions with the microorganisms, when it is used in heavily contaminated products, loss of its active ingredient (phenoxyethanol) must be taken into account. Euxyl® PE 9010 can be used in formulas containing natural raw materials (which have a greater risk for microbial contamination). Microorganisms introduced by this pathway are quickly eliminated by Euxyl® PE 9010. Good production hygiene as well as the use of raw materials with low microorganism levels, as a result of correct raw material control, are vital prerequisites for the production of finished products. Applications Euxyl® PE 9010 is recommended for use in: Creams, lotions, and serums Formulations containing natural raw materials Wet wipes Shampoo, conditioners and other hair care products Body washes Anhydrous skincare products * High loads of ethoxylated surfactants can result in a loss of efficacy. Euxyl® PE 9010 contains: Phenoxyethanol 90.0% Ethylhexylglycerin 10.0%
