About Phenyl Mercuric Borate
Phenyl Mercuric Borate is an organometallic compound.[1] Its solubility and charge state vary depending on the salt-forming components 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 and to inhibit microbial growth in the product, delaying spoilage during storage.[2]
