BH-800(1,2-Hexanediol ) High purity 1,2-Hexanediol

Introduction The full ingredient display system was enforced in 2008, and since then, many cosmetic companies have looked for substitutes for paraben, sorbate, Benzoate a Dehydroacetate. However, it turned out that those substitutes also had lots of problems, and finally "1,2-Hexanediol", which was already used widely in France, Germany and Japan, was selected as a substitute. 1,2-Hexanediol is a mandatory ingredient with no harm to a human body that plays the role as an antiseptic, a sterilizer and a moisture material for cosmetics, living products and other products that make contacts with human bodies. Especially, since cosmetics are very sensitive to odors, if an additive ingredient has strong smells, it can suppress the original odor of the cosmetic. So far, although many cosmetic companies have developed And manufactured 1,2-Hexanediol, they failed to remove the odors. However, B&B Co.,LTD has successfully developed high quality 1,2-Hexanediol with no color/odors but purity of 99.7% after three years of hardwork. In the past, the entire amount of 1,2-Hexanediol was imported from Japan, but nowadays our technology enables us to produce them and even exporting them to Japan, Germany and France.
