Sodium Phytate
I’m a plant-based chelating agent, which basically means I help to keep a formula stable, so it can stay awesome and last as long as it needs to.
Technical Term
Sodium Phytate
Ingredient Class
Supportive ingredient
I’m a supporter: I help make sure formulas feel and work just right.
How I'm made
I’m the sodium salt of Phytic Acid, a saturated cyclic acid that can be found in plant tissues, especially bran & seeds.
How I work
I keep things from getting weird: as a plant-based chelating agent, I prevent reactions that could spoil a product—basically, I help to keep a formula stable, so it can last and do its job.
