Bronopol (2-Bromo-2-nitro-1,3-propanediol) CAS:52-51-7
Bronopol is widely utilized as a preservative in the manufacturing of personal care products, such as shampoos, lotions, creams, and makeup, to prevent microbial growth and extend shelf life. Its effectiveness against a broad spectrum of microorganisms makes it a popular choice for maintaining product quality and safety. In industrial settings, Bronopol is often added to water-based systems like paints, adhesives, metalworking fluids, and cooling water to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi that can cause degradation and spoilage. Its ability to control microbiological contamination helps protect these products from deterioration and maintain their efficacy. While Bronopol is an effective preservative, there have been concerns about its potential for skin irritation and sensitization in some individuals. Proper handling and dosage control are essential when using products containing Bronopol to minimize the risk of adverse reactions. Regulatory guidelines and safety assessments play a crucial role in ensuring the appropriate use of Bronopol in consumer goods and industrial applications, emphasizing the importance of following recommended concentrations and application methods to achieve optimal preservation effects while maintaining safety standards.
