Inolex granted European patent for protected, sustainable preservation expertise
And introduces Spectrastat™ CHA, a 100% pure Caprylhydroxamic Acid in powder type
PHILADELPHIA PA, April 12, 2024 — European Patent EP3075401B1
Inolex is constructing on its protected and sustainable preservation platform with a newly issued European patent EP3075401B1 which is directed to paraben-free multifunctional compositions for topical beauty, toiletry, and pharmaceutical formulations that require Caprylhydroxamic Acid and a vicinal diol, in addition to strategies of utilizing the compositions to guard towards microbiological development.
Inolex aalso proclaims the addition of Spectrastat™ CHA, a 100% pure, non-palm derived chelating agent in powder type, to its line of Spectrastat™ preservation merchandise.
When designing preservation programs with Caprylhydroxamic Acid (CHA), pairing it with a vicinal diol, generally known as a Medium Chain Terminal Diol (MCTD), is essential for efficient product safety. A wide range of MCTDs can be utilized to perform efficient preservation when mixed with CHA, together with Caprylyl Glycol, Glyceryl Caprylate, and Caprylyl Glyceryl Ether. This mix of supplies and the ensuing efficient preservation of beauty merchandise is described in Inolex’s newly granted patent. The optimized combos are the inspiration of Inolex’s broad spectrum preservation programs provided below the Spectrastat™ tradename.
“Inolex’s protected preservation expertise combines a number of methods to create an surroundings that’s inhospitable to microbial development, often called the hurdle expertise strategy,” explains Michael J. Fevola, PhD, VP R&D at Inolex. “Hurdle expertise is an clever mixture of various preservation elements or methods (“hurdles”) to realize broad spectrum and dependable preservation results.”
Combining Spectrastat™ CHA with an MCTD creates a extremely efficient hurdle expertise ingredient mixture that gives broad spectrum microbial development safety over a large pH vary in beauty formulations.
Inolex is introducing Spectrastat™ CHA, a 100% pure, coconut derived natural acid and chelating agent, as a stand-alone part to supply most flexibility. For microbiologists and formulators preferring to work with particular person elements when designing their preservation programs, Spectrastat™ CHA presents a sustainably derived supply of Caprylhydroxamic Acid that continues to be efficient at impartial pH and prevents the expansion of yeast and mould in formulations. It’s backed by Inolex’s top quality requirements and the corporate’s in depth portfolio of security testing validated by the Beauty Ingredient Evaluate (CIR) Professional Panel.
“Our broad portfolio of protected, sustainable preservation expertise consists of particular person multifunctional parts and full broad spectrum programs so manufacturers can select their strategy to preservation,” says Fevola.
• Formulators preferring to work with pre-optimized combos or choose to simplify provide chain complexity by buying only one product, can select from Inolex’s broader vary of Spectrastat™ merchandise. The Spectrastat™ line combines CHA and MCTDs in optimized ratios for one of the best preservation efficacy plus added carriers for ease of formulation.
• Formulators preferring to work with particular person elements to create their very own combos can select to mix Spectrastat™ CHA with an MCTD from Inolex’s Lexgard® line to realize broad spectrum preservation efficacy. The Lexgard® vary of elements supplies extra advantages relying on formulation wants.
“Our patented compositions and strategies yield a flexible ingredient platform which provides formulators optionality when creating their optimum preservation system for client merchandise,” says Fevola. “We’re taking the guess work out of superior preservation by giving formulators a complete expertise platform and full flexibility to satisfy their particular person wants.”
