Description

EDTA (Еthylenediaminetetraacetic acid) is an important ingredient in cosmetics that is used for various purposes. Functions of EDTA: 1. Chelating agent: EDTA is used to remove heavy metals from water used in cosmetic products, thereby preventing their impact on the stability and effectiveness of the product. 2. Preservative: It can be used to increase the shelf life of cosmetic products, helping to prevent the growth of microorganisms and keeping them stable for a longer period of time. 3. Formula stabilizer: EDTA helps maintain the stability of cosmetic product formulas, preventing their decomposition and changes in properties over time.
