The properties of Ethyl Ferulate powder are much more efficient compared to other related phenolic acids. As a step to assist, Kraeber developed an Ethyl Ferulate Complex. This is a 40% stable solution of Ethyl Ferulate, Polyethylene Glycol and several high purity mono- and diglycerides. The ingredients are bacteriostatic and great emulsifying agents.
The benefits of the ready solution are e.g. the better dosage in the finished form and already after a short mixing time the formulation is perfectly homogenous.
Description
Ethyl Ferulate Complex is an all-rounder in preventing the skin from lines and signs of aging and has additionally antimicrobial effects. Because of the thermostable attribute it is easy to formulate in numerous applications.

Description: it is a white to light yellow crystalline powder, and soluble in propylene glycol and ethanol, etc.
Function:
1. Anti-oxidation, scavenging oxygen free radicals;
2. Promoting blood microcirculation;
3. Sun-screening;
4. Whitening skin and removing spots: It displays antagonistic action on endothelin-1 (ET-1), competitively inhibiting the binding of ET-1 and its receptors, and the proliferation of endothelin on melanocytes;
5. Bacteriostasis: It displays a superior inhibition on staphylococcus aureus, and can reduce the use of preservatives after adding in cosmetics.
Use: skin whitening and spot removing products, sun-screening products, anti-aging products and plant preservative products, etc.
