NICOTINAMIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Nicotinamide, also known as niacinamide, is a form of vitamin B3 used in various health and skincare products. It plays a crucial role in energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cell signaling. Nicotinamide is commonly employed in the formulation of creams, serums, and supplements due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and skin barrier-strengthening properties. It is also used in the treatment of niacin deficiency and certain skin conditions, such as acne and hyperpigmentation. Proper handling and storage of nicotinamide are essential to preserve its efficacy and prevent degradation. Safety measures should include the use of appropriate containers and adherence to manufacturer guidelines. Regular quality checks and monitoring of products containing nicotinamide ensure optimal performance and safety, making it a valuable ingredient in health and skincare applications.
