Due to its natural origin, E.C.E. can exhibit variations in the concentration of the ingredients due to harvesting, soil, weather etc.

The extended microbiostatic action of E.C.E. is accomplished via the synergism between ascorbic acid, citrus bioflavanoids and other organic acids contained in the E.C.E.

The antioxidant action of E.C.E. is also made possible by this synergism, and the product acts as a powerful free radical scavenger

  • Appearance- clear liquid
  • Taste- astringent )as citrus bioflavanoids)
  • Odor- pleasant (as light citrus smell)
  • Colour- light amber which darkens up. Change in color has no effect on efficacy
  • Density- (g/ml at 25C) typical value 1.038
  • PH 2.35
  • Ascorbic acid (Vit C) and citrus bioflavanoids- synergistic association 11.2ppm
  • Naringin (citrus bioflavanoids from grapefruit) 1300ppm minimum
  • Solubility- 100% water, alcohol and glycerine
  • PH to be mixed for use- better with products pH3.0 to 9.0 (Crystal Ki water is 7)
  • Stability- very stable at normal temperatures ( 15 to 30C)
  • Incompatible with anionic products
  • Hard water (Ca, Mg) can reduce its efficacy (crystal Ki water is softened)
