Chemical and physical data
pH 9.5- 10.5
Water content:  max. 5.0 %
Assay by non aqueous titration:  99 - 102 %

Uses: E215 (Sodium Ethyl paraben) is a broad spectrum antimicrobial agent designed for preservation of a wide range of cosmetics, toiletries pharmaceuticals. 
E215 (Sodium Ethyl paraben) is suitable to preserve both rinse- off and leave- on formulations.
Sodium Ethylparaben is effective against bacteria, molds and yeast. 
The recommended use level of Nipagin A Sodium to preserve most product types is normally in the range of 0.1- 0.3 % based on the total weight of the finished product.
The Paraben esters have many advantages as preservatives,like broad spectrum antimicrobial activity, effective at low use concentrations, compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients, colourless, odourless, well documented toxicological and dermatological acceptability based on human experience (used in cosmetics, food and pharmaceuticals since 1930ies), p-Hydroxybenzoic Acid and a number of its esters occur naturally in a variety of plants and animals, stable and effective over a wide pH- range, etc.

The Sodium Parabens, like Sodium Ethylparaben have several additional advantages:
- Nipagin A Sodium is highly soluble in cold water for ease of addition.
- No heating stage required for incorporation, thus saving energy and plant occupancy.
- Increased antimicrobial activity at alkaline pH.

Applications: Sodium Ethylparaben is designed for preservation of a wide range of cosmetics and toiletries. 
Sodium Ethylparaben is suitable to preserve both rinse- off and leave- on formulations. 
Formulations which are prone to bacteria contamination an additional antibacterial preservative, like Nipaguard DMDMH might be necessary to add as Sodium Ethylparaben provides a higher efficacy against fungi than against bacteria.

Solubility
Water up to 50 %

Sodium Ethylparaben
SINGLE PRESERVATIVE
Sodium Ethylparaben is a highly water-soluble short-chain paraben in sodium salt form. 
The major benefit offered by the sodium salts is their high solubility in cold water, thereby enabling the introduction of parabens without heating or pre-dissolving in solvents.

Benefits
Sodium Ethylparaben has high solubility in cold water
Sodium Ethylparaben performs broad spectrum of activity against bacteria and fungi
Sodium Ethylparaben shows effectiveness at low concentrations
Sodium Ethylparaben has stability over a broad pH-range

Water-soluble
Biodegradability at environmental concentrations
Global acceptance in personal care applications

Ethylparaben Sodium, also known as Ethyl paraben or Ethyl parahydroxybenzoate, can be used as a food additive and as an antifungal preservative


Incorporation: 
Sodium Ethylparaben is highly soluble in water and so easily incorporated into cosmetic formulations.
It is important to note that, whilst the aqueous solubility in alkaline solution is high, if the pH of the formulated product is acidic the sodium salt reverts to the ester and the low solubility is regained.

Microbial activity: 
Sodium Ethylparaben has a broad spectrum of activity which includes the following common spoilage organisms.

Technical Data

Active Substance (ca.): 100%
INCI-Name: Sodium Ethylparaben

Applications
Aqueous concentrates may be prepared up to 40% in strength. 
The concentrate may then be added to the process, preferably slowly and with rapid mixing. 
Due to the high pH of aqueous solutions of sodium parabens, the pH of the final product requires adjustment. 
The aqueous solution should be used within a short time of preparation as prolonged storage will result in alkaline hydrolysis of the esters.

It is important to note that, at the target pH of the formulation, the parabens will exist as the free esters and not as salts and, therefore, the solubility will also be that of the free esters. 
Use of the sodium salts will facilitate introduction of the parabens; it will not allow higher concentrations to be used compared with the free esters.


pH stability: 
Sodium Ethylparaben remains fully stable over a wide pH range from 3.0- 11.0. 
Aqueous solutions of Nipagin A Sodium are not long- term stable at alkaline pH.

Temperature stability
The recommended maximum handling temperature is 80°C.

Storage instructions
Sodium Ethylparaben is stable in sealed original containers.
Further information on handling, storage and dispatch is given in the EC safety data sheet.

Parabens are a family of related ingredients commonly used as preservatives in cosmetics and personal care products. 
They help prevent the growth of harmful bacteria and mold, protecting both products and consumers. 
Parabens are highly effective and widely used preservatives that enhance the shelf life and safety of products including all types of cosmetics, as well as foods and drugs, and protect the families who trust and enjoy them. 
The most commonly used parabens in cosmetics are methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben.


Paraben preservatives all share para-hydroxybenzoic acid, or PHBA, as a common chemical structure.  
PHBA occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables. 
The parabens used in cosmetics are identical to those found in nature, and are quickly eliminated by the body.
Any product that contains water is susceptible to being spoiled by the growth of fungi or bacteria, which could cause problems such as discoloration, malodor, or breakdown of the product. 
Under certain conditions, an inadequately preserved product can become contaminated, allowing harmful levels of microorganisms to grow. 
Parabens are highly effective preservatives that protect products against such changes, thus enhancing the shelf life and safety of products, and have been used safely for decades.


Ethylparaben, also known as e-214 or aseptin a, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as p-hydroxybenzoic acid alkyl esters. 
These are aromatic compounds containing a benzoic acid, which is esterified with an alkyl group and para-substituted with a hydroxyl group. 
It is used as an antifungal preservative. 
Sodium ethyl para-hydroxybenzoate, the sodium salt of ethylparaben, has the same uses and is given the E number E215. 
Ethylparaben is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 
Its formula is HO-C6H4-CO-O-CH2CH3. 
Ethylparaben is a mild and phenolic tasting compound. 
Outside of the human body, ethylparaben has been detected, but not quantified in, alcoholic beverages. 
This could make ethylparaben a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 
Ethylparaben (ethyl para-hydroxybenzoate) is the ethyl ester of p-hydroxybenzoic acid. 
Ethylparaben is a potentially toxic compound. As a food additive, it has E number E214.
