  • Chlorphenesin Optimum pH Range

    Hi all,

    Looking to incorporate chlorphenesin in a preservative system for an emulsion with pH 7 - 7.5. I was wondering what’s the optimal pH range for it. Most sources list a wide pH range of 3 to 9. While this Azelis / Sharon description lists a much narrower 4 to 6 pH range:

    Any input is appreciated.

    @Formulator If anything chlorphenesin will be better in the mild alkaline range (pH 7 - 9), so your project is ideal.
