Abstract: The invention relates to a liquid concentrate for the preservation of cosmetic and pharmaceutical products based on 3-iodo-2-propynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) which, in addition to IPBC, comprises a liquid carrier chosen from polyvalent alcohols, glycol esters and glycol ethers or any mixture thereof and a stabilizer chosen from formic acid, formic acid salts and formate esters or any mixture thereof, no additional carboxylic acid chosen from benzoic acid, propionic acid, salicylic acid, sorbic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, dehydroacetic acid and 10-undecylenic acid or a salt thereof being present.

Abstract: The invention relates to an alcohol-free liquid concentrate for preserving cosmetic products, household products and technical products, which consists of a carboxylic acid component, a stabilizer component, solvents and optionally customary auxiliaries, additives and/or further active ingredients. Here, the carboxylic acid component comprises at least one salt of benzoic acid, propionic acid, salicylic acid, sorbic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, dehydroacetic acid and 10-undecylenic acid and optionally one or more of said free acids. The stabilizer component comprises substances which, in particular, have a colour-stabilizing action.
