DESCRIPTION

Zinc ricinoleate is the zinc salt of ricinoleic acid, a fatty acid found in castor oil obtained from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant

Physical properties

Insoluble in water; melts with the other oily components in the oil phase. Melting point 71 °C/160 °F.

pH value 6.6

Beige pellets, characteristic odor.

Cosmetic properties

Zinc ricinoleate traps and absorbs the odor molecules formed when perspiration is broken down by bacteria. It does not inhibit perspiration and is therefore not an antiperspirant. Zinc ricinoleate has no bactericidal or fungicidal properties, so it does not interfere with the skin's natural flora.

It is also an anti-caking and opacifying agent.

Cosmetic uses

Stick deodorants or deodorant emulsions.

Can be melted together with the other oily components of the oil phase, preferably at 80 °C/176 °F

Practical formulation guide
Usage level: Usage concentration: typical use is 1.5–3 %
How to use and incorporate: Add during cool-down (below 40 °C/104 °F) unless the data sheet indicates another temperature; dissolve or disperse in the compatible phase (water or oil) and adjust the final pH to the range recommended by the manufacturer.
Formulation tips:
  • To communicate benefits on the finished product, respect the usage level evaluated by the manufacturer and keep the active's technical documentation.
  • Avoid combining it with ingredients that alter its optimal pH or stability (oxidizers, strong acids, excess electrolytes).
  • Before scaling up, make a pilot batch and run a stability test (cycles at 4 / 25 / 45 °C/39 / 77 / 113 °F for 4 weeks, checking odor, color, pH, viscosity and separation) in the final packaging.
Compatibility: Compatible with most cosmetic bases (emulsions, gels, serums); check compatibility with the preservative system and the pH of the formula.
Storage: Original container tightly closed, protected from light and heat. Some actives require refrigeration (2–8 °C/36–46 °F): follow the data sheet.
Precautions: Wear gloves and safety glasses when handling. Do not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes; in case of contact, rinse with plenty of water. See the Safety Data Sheet (available with purchase).
Technical information for formulators: This sheet describes industrial uses of the raw material in the development of cosmetic products. It is not an efficacy claim for any finished product. The person responsible for the formulation must validate the concentration, compatibility and claims of their product in accordance with applicable regulations.
