Cosphaderm® Sodium pAS natural is the sodium salt of plant-derived anisic acid. Due to its gentle and pleasant odour, Cosphaderm® Sodium pAS natural can be used as a masking agent to cover undesired odours from other ingredients. Another core property of sodium anisate is the strong antimicrobial efficacy against yeasts and moulds at pH values below 6.0. The big advantage of sodium anisate is its superior water-solubility, which makes this product even easier to incorporate into cosmetic formulations than anisic acid.

It allows for versatile textures such as creams, sprays, lotions, and butters, providing a smooth and soft skin feel. In addition, its solid flake form enables easy and dust-free processing.

Cosphaderm® PA-12 is a powder product consisting of the sodium salt of phytic acid, which acts as a strong natural chelating agent and is effective over a wide pH range. Derived from the soak water of corn bran, Cosphaderm® PA-12 is completely natural and COSMOS-approved. Like other chelators, sodium phytate can contribute to preservation strategies by sequestering physiologically important metal ions. Its chelating properties additionally provide antioxidative functionality by preventing the formation of reactive oxygen species while also reducing discoloration of cosmetic products.
