Phytol, also referred to as chlorophyll alcohol, is a side chain on plant chlorophyll molecules. As a chain diterpene fatty alcohol composed of four isoprene units, it forms a lipophilic aliphatic chain that endows chlorophyll with liposolubility. This product is refined and purified from natural plant raw materials to obtain natural alcohol substances.
