SalSphere® Salicylic Acid (SA) is a time release delivery system of salicylic acid (SA). This hydroxy acid is a key ingredient in many skincare products for of dermatitis, acne, psoriasis, and more.
SA works as a keratolytic, comedolytic, and bacteriostatic agent, causing the cells of the epidermis to shed more readily, opening clogged pores, and neutralizing bacteria within.
SA is a white crystalline powder and poorly soluble in water (2g/L at 20°C). However, it is soluble in organic solvents that are not skin friendly (i.e. acetone, ether, alcohol, and chloroform-benzene), making it a challenge for formulation of topical skin applications.
