  • Mold preservation with sodium benzoate

    Does this look sufficient, in general?

    It’s a water based formulation, pH ~4.5.

    Not much obvious food-for-mold-or-bacteria ingredients in the formulation.

    Preservation plan-

    sodium benzoate 0.4% and propanediol 5%


    caprylyl glycol+1,2 hexanediol for bacteria.
