Product Introduction

Natural Cyclodextrin:

Gamma Cyclodextrin CAS 17465-86-0

Cyclodextrin Derivatives & Compounds:

Hydroxypropyl Gamma Cyclodextrin

Product Description

γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) is a cyclic oligosaccharide composed of 8 glucose units connected by α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Its cavity diameter is larger than that of α-CD and β-CD and can include larger molecules. Therefore, it has unique application value in the medical field.

Product Applications

In the Food Industry

1. Improved stability: Encapsulating flavors, pigments, and functional ingredients reduces degradation and volatilization during processing and storage.

2. Flavor release: Precise flavor release during processing or consumption is achieved through temperature or pH response, enhancing the overall experience.

3. Masking undesirable odors: Encapsulating off-flavors such as fishy or bitter tastes in raw materials like seafood and plant extracts improves food palatability.

In the Cosmetic Industry

1. Carrier and Controlled Release: Encapsulating active ingredients (such as essential oils and whitening agents) and controlling their transdermal release rate to enhance the duration of their effects.

2. Improved Stability: Protecting antioxidant ingredients (such as Vitamin C and polyphenols) from light and oxygen, extending the product's shelf life.

3. Adjusting Skin Feel and Compatibility: Improving the dispersion of oil-soluble ingredients in water-based formulations, reducing stickiness and improving texture.

In the Dietary Supplements Industry

1. Enhanced bioavailability: Encapsulation improves the solubility and absorption efficiency of hydrophobic nutrients (such as coenzyme Q10 and curcumin).

2. Masking unpleasant tastes: Encapsulation masks the metallic or bitter taste of minerals, plant extracts, etc., improving the user experience.

3. Protecting sensitive ingredients: Encapsulation protects active ingredients such as probiotics and enzymes in storage or acidic stomach environments, ensuring their release in the intestines.

Product Summary

Gamma-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) plays many important roles in cosmetics due to its unique ring structure and inclusion capacity.

1. Bitter-Free, High-Catechin Tea Beverages: Many functional green tea beverages on the Japanese market use γ-CD.
2. Functional Water/Juice: Clear beverages with added γ-CD-encapsulated fish oil and vitamins.
3. Protein Beverages: Mask the unpleasant flavor of plant-based proteins.
4. Dairy Products: Stabilize flavor and texture in yogurt and ice cream, enhancing nutrients.
5. Confectionery and Baked Goods: Protect volatile flavors and extend flavor longevity.
