Tetrasodium glutamate diacetate works as a stabilizer in cosmetic formulations to preventing the natural discoloration of shampoos and gels. tetrasodium glutamate diacetate is used to enhance and preservative the formulation’s ingredients and also acts as a heavy metal chelating agent.

What Is Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate?
Tetrasodium glutamate diacetate is a vegetable-based chelating agent.

What Is Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate Used for? 
Tetrasodium glutamate diacetate is often found in sunscreen, facial cleanser, shampoo, makeup, lotion, and other products.[1] You can also find it in detergents, cleansing wipes, bar soap, and other cleaning products.[2]

How Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate Is Made
Metal organic acid chelates are made by reacting a metal ion from a soluble metal salt with an organic acid or its salt. For example, amino acid chelates have generally been made by reacting one or more amino acids, dipeptides, polypeptides, or protein hydrolysate ligands in an aqueous environment. Under appropriate conditions, this causes an interaction between the metal and amino acids to form amino acid chelates. 

Organic acid chelates have been generally been made by producing a reaction by using either amino acids, picolinic, nicotinic acids, or hydroxycarboxylic acids.[4]

Is Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate Safe for Skin? 
Research shows the ingredient is not a strong skin irritant.[5]

Why Puracy Uses Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate
We use tetrasodium glutamate diacetate as a rinsing aid in several of our products because it temporarily reduces the surface tension of water. This creates a sheeting effect and helps suds and grime rinse away quickly and completely. Fewer water droplets left on surfaces reduces the need to rinse repeatedly to get soap off (and therefore reduces water consumption). 

Which Puracy Products Use Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate?
The following Puracy products use this ingredient: 

Natural Body Wash
Natural Baby Shampoo & Body Wash
Natural Dish Soap
Natural Pet Shampoo

Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate
Tetrasodium glutamate diacetate is an organic salt synthesized from glutamic acid (an amino acid abundant in nature). It usually appears as an odourless white powder that is soluble in water, and is used as a multi-purpose, clear, liquid chelating agent and preservative booster.

Tetrasodium glutamate diacetate is what's known as a 'chelating agent', an ingredient that inactivates metallic ions (charged particles) in product formulations. Free roaming iron and copper ions in formulations can lead to rapid oxidation, meaning they will spoil quickly. Using a chelating agent helps to slow this process, allowing for the creation of products with improved stability and appearance. This also improves the effectiveness of preservative ingredients, allowing us to use a lower percentage of these, for safer shelf-stable products.
