Beta Cyclodextrin
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Beta Cyclodextrin is a seven-unit cyclic oligosaccharide, serving as the industry standard for molecular encapsulation of organic compounds. This Pharma Grade carrier is utilized to stabilize volatile actives and transform liquid ingredients into stable, free-flowing powders.
In the cosmetic sector, it functions as a Technical Grade odor absorber and controlled-release agent for fragrances. Its crystalline structure allows for the protection of sensitive actives like Retinol or Vitamin E from oxidative and thermal degradation.
The product offers superior purity levels and cost-effectiveness compared to other cyclodextrin variants. It is a critical component in modern drug delivery, enhancing the shelf-life stability of a wide range of pharmaceutical dosages.
APPLICATIONS
- Drug Stabilization: Protects active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) from hydrolysis and oxidation, extending formulation shelf life.
- Cosmetic Fragrance Fixation: Encapsulates fragrance oils in skin care products to provide a sustained, long-lasting scent release.
- Odor Neutralization: Used in household and industrial cleaners to trap and neutralize malodorous molecules effectively.
SAFETY & RISKS
