Applications

• RIANOX® TT, a sterically hindered phenolic antioxidant, is a highly effective, non-discoloring stabilizer to prevent deterioration of ingredients sensitive to antioxidant, such as perfumes, natural oils, fatty acids and the like.
• It protects rinse-off products as well as leave on formulations efficiently against thermo-oxidative degradation (e.g. rancidification and color changes).
• RIANOX® TT can be added to the oil, perfume or organic phase care formulations. Because of its insolubility in water a sufficient amount of solubilizing compound is needed in aqueous formulations to avoid precipitation.
• The product can be used at maximum end-use concentration levels of 0.3% for leave-on and 0.5% for rinse-off applications.
• The product can be used in combination with other phenolic or non-phenolic antioxidant. In general its effectiveness is enhanced by using in combination with chelating agents (e.g. EDTA, NTA, citric acid, phosphoric acid, ascorbyl palmitate, lecithin).
