| Chemical Properties | Ascorbyl palmitate is a white or yellowish-white solid with a soapy taste and a citrus-like odor. It is very slightly soluble in water but freely soluble in alcohol, animal oil, and vegetable oil. It melts at 107° to 117°C (around 234°F). Ascorbyl palmitate prevents oxidative rancidity development by quenching singlet oxygen. The ascorbic acid part of the molecule donates hydrogen (a reducing agent). This phenomenon is also called “oxygen scavenging”. |
| Uses | Ascorbyl Palmitate is an ester formed from ascorbic acid and palmitic acid creating a fat soluble form of vitamin C. It is used as an antioxidant food additive. It is also used as a preservative and an anti-oxidant in cosmetic creams and lotions to prevent rancidity. Ascorbyl palmitate facilitates the incorporation of ingredients such as vitamins A, C, and D into cosmetic formulations. It has no known toxicity. |
| Application | Ascorbyl Palmitate is an antioxidant formed by combining ascorbic acid with palmitic acid. ascorbic acid is not fat soluble but ascorbyl palmitate is, thus combining them produces a fat-soluble antioxidant. it exists as a white or yellowish white powder of citric- like odor. it is used as a preservative for natural oils, edible oils, colors, and other substances. it acts synergistically with alpha-tocopherol in oils/fats. it is used in peanut oil at a maximum level of 200 mg/kg individually or in combination. |
