It appears in a variety of products, including bath, skin care, suntan, sunscreen, fragrance, shav- ing, hair and nail care products, and eye and facial makeup, because of its ability to kill microorganisms and prevent their growth and reproduction, thus protecting cosmetics and personal care products from spoilage. Novaguard SDHA is considered to be an effective antimicrobial and preservative even at very low concentra- tions, as low as .6%, prohibiting the growth of bacterial and fungal microbes, although they do not necessarily kill already developed microbes.

Whatever under acidic, neutral and alkaline condi- tion, it has good effect and strong inhibition capacity especially for mold, yeast and bacteria, and the concen- tration of effective working is low. And heat resistance and light resistance is good, it will not be decomposed and evaporated with steam during food produced. The testing proved that Novaguard SDHA is almost non- toxic and safe.
