Product Description

Tongze supplies cosmetic grade fruit acid AHA powder alpha hydroxy acid powder AHA fruit acid

 

Product Description

 Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are a class of natural or synthetic organic acids, with a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to the alpha carbon atom in the molecular structure. Common types include glycolic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, malic acid and tartaric acid. AHAs are widely used in skin care products (such as anti-aging, acne treatment) and medical cosmetology (chemical peels) by gently exfoliating, promoting cell renewal and collagen synthesis.

 

Product Parameters

Properties	Parameter value/explanation
Common types	Glycolic acid (C2H4O3), lactic acid (C3H6O3), citric acid (C6H8O7), etc.
Sources	Natural (sugar cane, yogurt, fruit) or chemically synthesized
Molecular weight	Glycolic acid (76.05), lactic acid (9008), citric acid (192.12)
pH range	Common pH for skin care products is 3-4, and pH for skin peeling agents is <3
Solubility	Water solubility (easily soluble in water and ethanol)
Concentration range	Skin care products (5-10%), medical skin peeling (20-70%)
Stability	Sensitive to light, need to be stored away from light (especially high concentration formulas)

 

Function

1. Exfoliation: dissolves desmosomes in the stratum corneum and accelerates the renewal of epidermal cells.
2. Moisturizing and locking in moisture: enhances the synthesis of natural moisturizing factor (NMF) in the epidermis (such as lactic acid).
3. Anti-aging: stimulates the production of collagen and elastic fibers, reduces fine lines and photoaging.
4. Whitening and lightening: inhibits tyrosinase activity and reduces melanin deposition (such as citric acid).
5. Oil control and acne removal: unclogs pores and regulates sebum secretion (such as glycolic acid).

 

Application

 

1. Skin care products
• Cleansers/toners: low concentration (2-5%) for daily gentle exfoliation.

• Essences/creams: 5-10% concentration to improve fine lines and dullness (such as glycolic acid).

• Masks: Lactic acid/lactobionic acid (second-generation PHA) for moisturizing and repairing sensitive skin.

2. Medical cosmetology
• Chemical peels: 20-70% concentration for the treatment of acne, acne marks, and pigmentation (professional operation required).

3. Other fields
• Agriculture: citric acid is used as a plant preservative.

• Industrial cleaning: acidic detergents (such as removing metal oxides).
