Diazolidinyl Urea

Diazolidinyl Urea is a water-soluble preservative commonly used in cosmetic and personal care formulations to prevent microbial growth and extend the shelf life of products. It functions as a formaldehyde-releasing agent, slowly releasing small amounts of formaldehyde over time to provide effective antibacterial and antifungal protection. Diazolidinyl Urea is often used in combination with other preservatives to create a broad-spectrum preservative system that helps ensure product safety and stability.
