Description: Sodium benzoate is used to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi in cosmetics and food products. 

It’s pH dependent and works best at acidic pH levels (3-5). It’s not strong enough to be used in itself so it’s always combined with something else, often with potassium sorbate.

Score: 1

Role: Preservative, anticorrosive, and masking.
