Whether the microformaldehyde produced by Bronopol can affect product safety?
Due to hydrolysis, will the microformaldehyde produced by Broball affect product safety? In fact, formaldehyde is present in humans and in a number of common foods, as shown in Table 8. Broball hydrolyzes to a formaldehyde content of less than 1ppm, which is lower than the formaldehyde content found in these common foods. At the same time, China's Hygienic Standard for Cosmetics (2007) stipulates that Bropol can be used in cosmetics as a limited preservative (the added dose should be less than 0.1%, while avoiding the formation of nitrosamines), which also proves the safety of Bropol used in liquid washing products under correct use conditions.
