Hyaluronic acid HMW - description
Sodium Hyaluornate is regarded as an ideal natural moisturizer factor and widely used in cosmetics, being suitable for different skins, climates and environments. HMW type has functions like slow release, good recovering effect, good lubricity effect, forms a dense protective and breathable layer on the surface of the skin.
Tests shows that sodium hyaluronate - also known as hyaluronic acid, has the highest moisture absorption at low relative humidity while the lowest at high relative humidity comparing to commonly used humectants like glycerin, sodium PCA, sorbitol etc.
HMW type sodium hyaluronate is high molecular weight.
Molecular weight range: 1.0 mDa ~ 1.6 mDa
INCI: sodium hyaluronate
Organoleptic properties: white odorless powder
