Cosphaderm® Sodium LAAS is a white powder comprising the solid mixture of Sodium Levulinate and Sodium Anisate. This blend displays skin conditioning and masking properties, as well as a broad antimicrobial effectiveness. This way, Cosphaderm® Sodium LAAS can help to ensure a formulations microbiological stability without the use of traditional preservatives.

COSPHADERM SB-75H is a fractionated and hydrogenated, de-oiled soybean lecithin in powdered shape (PC content min 70 %). The hydrogenation of double bonds in the fatty acids results in a higher stability towards destructive oxidation and much better emulsifying and dispersion properties in aqueous media compared to common fractionated lecithin.

Cosphaderm® pAS natural is a plant-derived anisic acid with multifunctional properties. Due to its very gentle and pleasant scent, Cosphaderm pAS natural can be used as a masking agent to cover undesired odour from other ingredients. Another function of anisic acid is the strong antimicrobial efficacy at pH values below 6.0, especially against yeasts and molds.

Cosphaderm® CHA is the Hydroxamic Acid of caprylic acid. The natural organic acid is a chelator and antimicrobial with a strong efficacy against a broad spectrum of microorganisms, especially yeasts and molds. In contrast to other organic acids, Cosphaderm® CHA remains undissociated even at neutral pH and is therefore applicable over a broad pH range up to pH 7.5. The combination of chelating and antimicrobial properties in one molecule allows for use of Cosphaderm CHA for stabilization of cosmetic formulations against metal ion-induced oxidation and protection against microorganisms at the same time.
