About Ammonium Chloride

Ammonium Chloride is an inorganic salt.[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 ingredients. In cosmetics, it is used to buffer the formula so its acidity does not change rapidly, to prevent the characteristic odor or taste of ingredients from becoming too noticeable, and to adjust the formula's viscosity and flow.[2]
