Sodium Methyl Paraben, also named Sodium Methylparaben, is the sodium salt of methylparaben. It is a widely used water-soluble preservative for food, cosmetics, personal care and pharmaceutical industries. As one of the parabens series, it effectively inhibits bacteria, molds and yeasts to extend product shelf life. Compared with methyl paraben, sodium methyl paraben has much better water solubility and can be prepared into aqueous solutions without organic solvents, which simplifies production operation.
Key Advantages
-
Good water solubility：Dissolves quickly in water, no heating or alcohol required for preparation.
-
Broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity：Strong inhibitory effect against gram-positive bacteria, mould and yeast.
-
Wide applicable pH range：Stable within pH 4–8, works efficiently in most aqueous formulations.
-
Easy to use & compatible：Good compatibility with most raw materials, surfactants and other preservatives.
-
Stable storage：Good thermal stability, retains activity during normal production heating process.
