What is Ascorbyl Palmitate?

Ascorbyl Palmitate is a fat-soluble form of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) that combines ascorbic acid with palmitic acid, a fatty acid. This combination results in a compound that retains the antioxidant properties of vitamin C while being more stable and less prone to degradation.

Vitamin C ester magic benefits

  • Antioxidant Properties: Like vitamin C, ascorbyl palmitate has antioxidant properties, helping to protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
  • Stability: Ascorbyl palmitate is more stable than pure vitamin C. This makes it a common additive in food products and cosmetics to provide the benefits of vitamin C while maintaining stability.
  • Uses in Food: It is used as a preservative and antioxidant in various food products to extend shelf life and maintain color and flavor.
  • Uses in Cosmetics: Ascorbyl palmitate is often found in skincare products to help reduce signs of aging and improve skin texture and tone.
  • Fat-Soluble: Ascorbyl palmitate is fat-soluble. This property allows it to be incorporated into lipid-based formulas and penetrate cell membranes more effectively.

Ascorbyl Palmitate’s Applications

  • Food and Beverage: Acts as a preservative to prevent oxidation and rancidity, extending shelf life.
  • Cosmetics and Skincare: Provides anti-aging, skin-brightening, and antioxidant benefits, enhancing the stability of formulations.
  • Pharmaceuticals: These are used for Vitamin C supplementation and to stabilize drugs.
  • Animal Nutrition: Preserves freshness and enhances nutrition in pet foods and animal feeds.
  • Nutraceuticals: These are included in supplements for immune support and antioxidant benefits.
  • Industrial: Stabilizes oils and fats in various non-food products.

Ascorbyl Palmitate Bulk Powder Manufacturing Process

  • Preparation: Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) and Palmitic Acid are sourced and purified.
  • Esterification: These acids are mixed and heated with a catalyst, forming Ascorbyl Palmitate through a chemical reaction.
  • Purification: The product is purified by separating, washing, and crystallizing the Ascorbyl Palmitate.
  • Drying: The purified compound is dried to remove moisture.
  • Milling and Sieving: The dried product is milled and sieved for uniform particle size.
  • Quality Control and Packaging: The final product undergoes quality checks and is then packaged for storage and use.
