Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic Acid (D2323)

Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic Acid (D2323), known in the cosmetic industry as Pentetic Acid, is a versatile polyamino carboxylic acid characterized by a diethylenetriamine backbone adorned with five carboxymethyl groups. This white, water-soluble solid serves as a powerful chelating agent, making it invaluable in cosmetics and personal care formulations. Its primary function is to inactivate metallic ions, which helps maintain the stability and visual appeal of products. Commonly found in hair dyes, non-coloring hair products, and bath formulations, Pentetic Acid effectively prevents the oxidative deterioration of these cosmetic items, ensuring their performance and longevity. Its multifunctional properties make it an essential ingredient for delivering quality and reliability in both everyday and specialized beauty products.
