Description
Sodium Phosphate is a salt of phosphoric acid, which is often used in cosmetic products as a pH regulator, buffering agent, and preservative. Its main functions in cosmetics are: 1. Regulation of pH level. Sodium Phosphate maintains the acid-alkaline balance of the product, ensuring comfortable use and preventing skin irritation. 2. Buffering properties. Due to its chemical characteristics, the ingredient stabilizes the formula of the cosmetic, preventing it from changing its properties under the influence of external factors. 3. Increasing the effectiveness of preservatives. Sodium Phosphate often works in conjunction with other preservatives, increasing their ability to protect the product from bacteria and fungi. 4. Moisturizing and care. Although this is not its main function, Sodium Phosphate can slightly moisturize the skin by retaining moisture.
