About Acetic Acid

Acetic acid is a compound containing an acidic group.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to buffer the formulation so its acidity does not change rapidly and to prevent the characteristic odor or taste of raw materials from becoming too pronounced.[3] It is described as a colorless liquid with a strong odor, so the order and temperature of mixing it with other liquid raw materials affect the uniformity of the finished product.[2]
