Product Description

Product Description

Ascorbyl Palmitate is a fat-soluble derivative of vitamin C (ascorbic acid), synthesized by esterifying ascorbic acid with palmitic acid. It appears as a white to pale yellow crystalline powder or granules, odorless, and stable under heat and light. Unlike water-soluble ascorbic acid, it is soluble in oils and fats, making it ideal for lipid-based systems. Recognized for its antioxidant, stabilizing, and skin-brightening properties, it is widely used in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals to prevent oxidation, enhance shelf life, and deliver vitamin C benefits in lipid environments.

Product Application

Food Industry

Antioxidant in Oils & Fats: Protects frying oils, margarine, and snack foods from oxidative rancidity, extending shelf life.
Processed Meats & Dairy: Inhibits lipid oxidation in sausages, cheese, and powdered milk.
Fortified Foods: Adds vitamin C activity to lipid-based supplements (e.g., softgel capsules, fortified oils).
Bakery Products: Stabilizes fats in baked goods to prevent off-flavors during storage.

Cosmetics & Skincare

Anti-Aging Formulations: Neutralizes free radicals in serums, creams, and sunscreens to reduce UV-induced skin damage.
Skin Brightening: Inhibits melanin production, addressing hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone.
Stabilizer: Protects oxidation-prone ingredients (e.g., vitamin E, retinoids) in emulsions.
Lip Products: Enhances antioxidant protection in lipsticks and balms due to lipid compatibility.

Pharmaceuticals & Nutraceuticals

Lipid-Based Supplements: Delivers vitamin C in softgels or oil-based formulations for improved bioavailability.

Topical Medications: Used in ointments or transdermal patches for wound healing and collagen synthesis.

Antioxidant Synergy: Combines with vitamin E to regenerate its antioxidant capacity in therapeutic products.

Industrial & Specialty Uses

Animal Feed: Stabilizes fats in feed formulations and supports livestock health.

Bioactive Packaging: Incorporated into edible films to prevent lipid oxidation in packaged foods.
