Phenoxyethanol CAS 122-99-6

Phenoxyethanol (CAS 122-99-6, also known as 2-phenoxyethanol or ethylene glycol monophenyl ether) is a high-boiling aromatic glycol ether and one of the most widely used broad-spectrum preservatives in personal care formulations worldwide. It is a clear, colorless, slightly viscous liquid with excellent antimicrobial activity against bacteria, yeast and mold, and it remains fully effective across a wide pH range (approximately pH 3–10). Its low irritation profile and outstanding formulation compatibility make it a cornerstone ingredient in skin care, hair care, sun care and baby care products, as well as in pharmaceutical and industrial systems.
