Description

Magnesium(2+) (E)-4'-Hydroxy-3'-Methoxycinnamate is a magnesium salt derivative of ferulic acid, a naturally occurring phenolic compound. This specialized ingredient offers enhanced stability and bioavailability compared to its acid form, making it a valuable functional additive. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the cosmetic, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries for its potent antioxidant and skin-protective properties.

Application

• Cosmetic & Skincare Formulations: Used as a key active ingredient in anti-aging serums, creams, and sun care products for its strong antioxidant and UV-protective effects.
• Dietary Supplements & Nutraceuticals: Incorporated into capsules and tablets for its potential health benefits, including supporting cardiovascular health and providing systemic antioxidant support.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a starting material or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex therapeutic agents targeting oxidative stress.
• Functional Food & Beverage Fortification: Added to health-focused foods and drinks to enhance their nutritional profile with a stable antioxidant compound.
• Advanced Material Science: Investigated for use in polymer stabilization and as a functional component in specialty coatings due to its phenolic structure.

Quality Control

Our production of Magnesium Ferulate adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch is analyzed to ensure high purity and consistency, with specifications suitable for cosmetic and nutraceutical applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), detailing parameters such as assay, heavy metals, and microbiological limits, is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and tendency to be easily oxidized, prolonged exposure to light, heat, or air should be avoided to maintain product integrity.
