Definitions

  • Microorganisms lead to the decay of food and goods of daily use such as cosmetic compositions, household products, plastics, paper or paints. Particularly, cosmetic products are prone to be attacked by microorganism.
  • the reduction of growth of microorganisms is essential for the consumers safety and health when using a cosmetic product.
  • the shelf life of a cosmetic product can be increased.
  • Currently a variety of substances are known to reduce the growth of microorganism. As the use of certain antimicrobial agents are under public discussions a reduction of antimicrobial agents is a strong desire in the cosmetic industry.
  • EP 2 794 729 B1 disclose the preparation of specific hyperbranched polyesters which can be used as flocculants in paper production and in dishwater detergents.
