In the production process of cosmetics, water is an extremely critical raw material that does not Only the main ingredients of numerous cosmetic formulas still play a crucial role in the production process Important functions such as washing and dissolving. Failure to meet water quality standards may lead to microbial exceedance and Loss of activity and even consumer allergies.
Why is water so important for cosmetics
1. High proportion of ingredients: Most cosmetics have a moisture content of 60% to 90% (such as toner
Lotion);
2. Direct contact with skin: Poor quality water may carry pathogenic bacteria or chemical pollutants;
3. Affects product stability: Metal ions, organic compounds, etc. can accelerate component oxidation or separation
Layer.
Selection and maintenance of water production system
·Process selection:
-RO reverse osmosis: With a filtration accuracy of 0.0001 microns, it can remove over 99% of ions
Organic matter, colloids, and microorganisms (such as bacteria and endotoxins) ensure that the water quality reaches primary level
Pure water standard (conductivity ≤ 10 μ S/cm).
-EDI Electrodeionization: Deep desalination through ion exchange resin and electric field action, without the need for chemical treatment
Learn regeneration to directly produce ultrapure water, avoiding the risk of acid-base pollution from traditional mixed bed resins.
Product safety and stability:
-Avoid impurities in water (such as Ca ²+, Mg ²+) reacting with cosmetic ingredients, which can cause sedimentation
Staining, discoloration, or loss of activity.
-Microbial control meets GMP and ISO22716 standards, reduces dependence on preservatives, and is suitable for
Development of sensitive muscle products.
● Maintenance key:
-Rinse the pipeline weekly to prevent biofilm formation;
-Replace the filter element monthly and verify the sensor quarterly.
