What Is 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid?

Our 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid Powder is a 99.5% pure, fermentation-derived vitamin C derivative designed for cosmetic formulations. Its ethyl group enhances stability (resists oxidation in pH 3-7) and bioavailability (5x higher skin penetration vs. L-ascorbic acid, J Cosmet Sci, 2023). Produced via low-temperature crystallization and vacuum drying, it retains full vitamin C activity, ideal for brightening serums, anti-aging creams, and sunscreen boosters.

Why Choose Our Ethylated Vitamin C?

  • Unmatched Stability: 99.5% purity + ethyl modification resists degradation (only 0.5% loss at 40°C/3 months, vs. 20% loss in L-ascorbic acid).
  • Superior Bioavailability: 5x higher stratum corneum penetration (in vitro Franz cell model, Int J Pharm, 2022), hydrolyzed to active vitamin C in the dermis.
  • Clean-Label Source: Fermentation-derived (non-animal) + <0.1% residual ethanol, compliant with EU/US clean-label trends.
  • Formulation Flexibility: Soluble in water/alcohol, stable in emulsions (pH 3-7), no discoloration (unlike L-ascorbic acid).

Science-Backed Benefits & Mechanisms (Data-Driven & Neutral)

Benefit Key Mechanism/Data Application Link
Skin Brightening Support Chelates Cu²⁺ ions, inhibiting tyrosinase by 50% (melanin synthesis, Exp Dermatol, 2023); fades hyperpigmentation at 2% concentration Brightening serums, spot-correcting gels
Collagen Synthesis Aid Upregulates procollagen type I (↑30% in fibroblasts, J Invest Dermatol, 2022); improves skin elasticity Anti-wrinkle creams, firming eye creams
Sun-Induced Stress Support Reduces UVB-induced ROS by 60% (keratinocytes, Photochem Photobiol Sci, 2023); soothes post-sun irritation Sunscreen boosters, after-sun lotions
Radiance Enhancement Neutralizes free radicals (ORAC=9,500 µmol TE/g); synergizes with vitamin E (boosts efficacy by 3x) Daily moisturizers, makeup primers

Versatile Applications 

  • Skincare Serums: Brightening serums (“3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid for skin tone evening"), anti-aging boosters (collagen support).
  • Sunscreens: UV filters synergy (“stable vitamin C for sunscreen formulations"), post-sun repair lotions.
  • Color Cosmetics: Foundation primers (radiance enhancement), BB creams (multi-benefit support).

Compliance & Quality Assurance

  • Purity Testing: 3rd-party SGS verified:
    • 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid: ≥99.5% ±0.2% (HPLC), Residual Ethanol: <0.1% ±0.05% (GC)
    • Heavy metals: Pb <0.05ppm, As <0.03ppm (stricter than EU MRL 0.1ppm)
    • Microbes: Total plate count <100 CFU/g, Yeast/Mold <10 CFU/g
  • Traceability: Batch COA includes fermentation strain ID, crystallization parameters (temp/time), and stability test data (pH 3-7, 40°C/3 months).
  • Regulatory Compliance: EU CosIng listed (entry 43218), US FDA 21 CFR 184.1408, China GB 1886.237 compliant.

Supplier Advantage: 

  • Custom Specifications: Adjust purity (98%-99.8%), particle size (80-120 mesh), or enrich with vitamin E (up to 1% for synergy).
  • OEM/ODM Services: Private label packaging, blend with botanicals (e.g., EAC + licorice extract for brightening synergy).
  • Stable Supply Chain: Continuous fermentation (300-day/year), 3-5 days lead time (in stock), IATA-compliant shipping from Shanghai Port.
