M-Aminophenol

M-Aminophenol, also known as 2-phenoxyethanol, is an organic compound that is a component of many industrial products as well as some cosmetic products. This substance has a wide range of uses, so it is rare not to find products in which it is present. The list includes everything from industrial coatings, adhesives and printing inks to cosmetic products such as skin creams, shampoos and more.

M-Aminophenol is considered a better tolerated alternative to conventional preservatives. It is a chemical substance used in cosmetics as a colour stabilizer and mainly as a preservative. Preservatives are substances that, when added to products, prevent them from spoiling due to, for example, bacteria or fungi. M-Aminophenol is also used in some medical and pharmaceutical products, again as a preservative. In addition to its wide use in industry and cosmetics, m-aminophenol is also used in laboratories as a reagent in the synthesis of certain drugs. Due to its unique properties and its wide range of uses, m-aminophenol is therefore an element that appears in many spheres of human life.
