Description

Dl-Pantothenyl Alcohol CAS NO 1113-70-8 is a key intermediate and derivative of pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5), essential for synthesizing coenzyme A. This compound is valued for its role in supporting metabolic processes and as a versatile building block in fine chemical synthesis. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic industries for producing active ingredients, dietary supplements, and personal care formulations.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Synthesis: A crucial intermediate in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those related to vitamin B5 and its derivatives.
• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplements: Used as a raw material in the formulation of vitamin complexes and health supplements to support energy metabolism.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Incorporated into skincare and haircare products for its moisturizing and conditioning properties, often as panthenol (provitamin B5).
• Animal Feed Additives: Serves as a vitamin supplement in premixes to promote animal health and growth.
• Biochemical Research: Utilized as a standard or reagent in laboratory studies of metabolic pathways and enzymatic functions.
• Food Fortification: Employed in the enrichment of food products to enhance their nutritional profile.

Quality Control

Our Dl-Pantothenyl Alcohol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product stability.
