Anti Dandruff Acne Water Soluble Hexamidine Diisethionate Powder Cas 659-40-5
HD99 (Hexamidine Diisethionate) – Advanced Anti-Dandruff & Acne Treatment Active Ingredient
Product Overview
HD99 (INCI: Hexamidine Diisethionate) is a high-purity, water-soluble cationic compound with exceptional broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties. It effectively targets bacteria (Gram-positive and Gram-negative), fungi, yeasts, and molds—particularly *Pityrosporum ovale*, the primary microbe linked to dandruff and scalp irritation. Beyond its anti-dandruff efficacy, HD99 is a breakthrough ingredient for acne treatment, making it a versatile active for personal care formulations. Its mild yet potent action ensures excellent skin and scalp tolerance, even in sensitive areas like the eyes.
