Heroes of Modern Product Protection: 3. Tropolone

In this series of publications, we review individual multifunctional ingredients to highlight their importance in modern product protection and to offer a glimpse into the benefits they can bring to formulators and consumers. We call them “heroes”, because they play a critical role in ensuring shelf-life and product safety of cosmetic products.

This publication focuses on Tropolone, a multifunctional ingredient with powerful antioxidant properties, commercially part of the few available choices to support broad spectrum protection in multifunctional blends.
