About Ammonium Benzoate
Ammonium Benzoate is the ammonium salt of benzoic acid.[1] Its solubility and charge state vary depending on the components forming the salt and the formula's acidity, which also affects how it interacts with other raw materials. In cosmetics, it is used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms in products and slow deterioration during storage.[3] In Europe, when used as a preservative, it is permitted at up to 0.5% (based on acid content).[2]
