About

Lauramidobutyl Guanidine Acetate is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Lauramidobutyl guanidine acetate (CAS 161865-39-0) shares structural similarity with the HCl salt (id 29095), differing only in the acetate counterion. Both fall into the cationic guanidine class of compounds associated with contact sensitization. No EU restriction entries are present, but the acetate form carries similar concerns as other guanidine-type antimicrobials used in cosmetic formulations.
