Features

Ferulic Acid Powder(3-methoxy-4-hydroxycinnamic acid) is a hydroxycinnamic acid. It is found in the cell walls of plants, and is the main phenolic acid in the cell walls of monocotyledonous plants.

Its processes include natural plant extraction, chemical synthesis, microbial fermentation and biotransformation. Cereals are ideal raw materials for the production of ferulic acid.

Process Flow Chart

1. Synthesis method
   Vanillin + malonic acid → organic base catalysis → condensation reaction → complex salt → hydrochloric acid acidification → crude ferulic acid → ethanol recrystallization twice → refined ferulic acid → drying → crushing → packaging
2. Fermentation method
   Fermentation → Filter → Bleaching → Crystallized → Centrifugal → Drying → Sieving → package

Advantages

There are both plant-derived and synthetic sources of ferulic acid, providing customers with different options.

The powder has good solubility and the solution is clear and transparent.

Safety of Ferulic Acid

The Cosmetic Industry Association of America (CTFA) and the European Union allow ferulic acid to be used as a cosmetic raw material.

Japan also allows ferulic acid to be used in sunscreens.

Function

1. In the medical field, ferulic acid may provide new ways to treat chronic inflammatory diseases and fight depression.
   This ingredient has good anti-inflammatory effect on Alzheimer's disease, liver and kidney dysfunction.
   It has potential to help chronic inflammatory diseases and provides a new way to fight depression.
2. Sunscreen
   It can absorb ultraviolet rays with a wavelength of 290 to 330 nm, prevent and reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays of this wavelength to the skin.
3. It can inhibit or reduce the proliferation activity of melanocytes, and its inhibition rate on tyrosinase activity is as high as 86%.
4. In addition, ferulic acid also has good antioxidant and oxygen free radical scavenging effects.

Application

• Applied in the field of medical care.
• Its small molecule water-soluble characteristics make it easy for ferulic acid to enter the skin and exert its efficacy and biological activity. It can generally be added to cosmetics.
