Trade Name: KAD-15
INCI Name: kojic dipalmitate
Features:
a. Skin Lightening. Compared with kojic acid, Kojic Dipalmitate markedly enhances the inhibitory effects on tyrosinase activity, which prohibits the formation of melanin.
b. Light and Heat Stability: Kojic Dipalmitate is light and heat stable, while kojic acid tends to oxidize over time.
c. pH Stability: Kojic Dipalmitate is stable within a wide pH range of 3-10, which provides flexibility to formulators.
d. Color Stability: Kojic Dipalmitate is stable to pH, light, heat and oxidation, and does not complex with metal ions, which leads to color stability.
