PCMX Concentration and Production Yield Calculation
Question
What is the recommended concentration for PCMX?
If I have 1000 grams of PCMX and want to make a product with 0.2% concentration, how much total product (in grams) can I produce?
Answer
PCMX Concentration and Yield
Based on the product information for Chloroxylenol (PCMX) (100% Powder), the recommended concentration for use in hand disinfectant products is 0.2%. For killing Coronavirus, a rate of 0.12% is effective, but 0.2% is generally recommended for hand disinfectants. It can also be used as a preservative in cosmetic formulas at a maximum rate of 0.5%.
To calculate how much product you can make with 1000 grams of PCMX at a 0.2% concentration:
The formula is: (Amount of ingredient / Concentration) * 100 = Total amount of product
Amount of ingredient = 1000 grams
Concentration = 0.2%
Total amount of product = (1000 g / 0.2) * 100 = (1000 / 0.002) = 500,000 grams
Therefore, with 1000 grams of Chloroxylenol (PCMX) (100% Powder) at a 0.2% concentration, you can produce 500,000 grams of product.
