Product Name: Piroctone Olamine (octopirox)
CAS No: 68890-66-4
M.F: C14H23NO2·C2H7NO
Other Name : Octopirox
Appearance: White/Slightly Yellow Crystalline( Powder)
Identification: Positive
Molecular Structure:
Odor: Almost odorless
Content: Not less than 98%
Melting point : 130 - 135℃
Loss on drying : Not more than 0.3%
Ash (SO4): Not more than 0.2%
Solubility:
Freely soluble in 10% ethanol in water; soluble in solution containing surfactants in water or in 1%-10% ethanol; slightly soluble in water and in oil. The solubility in water varies by pH value, and is a litter larger in neutral or weak basic solution than in acid solution.
Thickening:
Piroctone Olamine increases the viscosity of many surfactant system
Stability:
a). pH: Stable in solution of pH 3 to pH 9.
b). Heat: Stable to heat, and to short time of high temperature above 80℃. DF-206 in shampoo of pH 5.5-7.0 remains stable after one year of storage at a temperature over 40℃.
c). Light: Decompose under direct ultraviolet radiation. So it should be protected from light.
d). Metals: An aqueous solution of Piroctone Olamine degrades in the presence of cupric and ferric ions.
Compatibility:
Piroctone Olamine is compatible with many cosmetic ingredients,especially with cationic surfactants (tetramine salt) and cationic active components. In some cases, this re-mixture increase the solubility of Piroctone Olamine.
Uses:
Piroctone Olamine is a broad spectrum of microbiocide/microbiostat, may be used informulating antidandruff shampoo, hair keep and hair care, soap, etc.
