As a leading manufacturer and supplier of cosmetic raw materials, understanding the precise needs of R&D scientists and product developers is our priority. The pursuit of effective yet stable active ingredients is constant, and 3-O-Ethyl-L-Ascorbic Acid (CAS 86404-04-8) stands out as a remarkable solution for modern skincare formulations.

Traditional Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid) is a powerhouse antioxidant, but its instability is a significant hurdle. It degrades rapidly when exposed to light, air, and certain pH levels, diminishing its efficacy and often causing yellowing in products. This necessitates complex formulation strategies and limits its use in certain product types, such as creams and lotions that require a more robust ingredient.

Enter 3-O-Ethyl-L-Ascorbic Acid, also known as Ethyl Ascorbic Ether. This derivative is engineered to overcome the limitations of pure Vitamin C. Its chemical structure makes it exceptionally stable, resistant to oxidation, and effective over a wider pH range. For procurement managers, this translates to greater formulation flexibility and a longer shelf life for the final cosmetic products. Its dual lipophilic and hydrophilic nature also means it can penetrate the skin more effectively than water-soluble Vitamin C derivatives, reaching the dermis where it can be converted into active Vitamin C.

The benefits for the end-user are substantial: improved skin tone, reduced appearance of dark spots, enhanced collagen production for firmer skin, and potent antioxidant protection. For cosmetic formulators, this means a reliable ingredient that delivers visible results. As a supplier based in China, we ensure that our 3-O-Ethyl-L-Ascorbic Acid meets high purity standards, allowing for predictable performance in your formulations. Whether you are developing advanced anti-aging serums, brightening creams, or protective moisturizers, this ingredient offers a competitive edge.
