We Offer Trisodium Ascorbyl Palmitate Phosphate (APPS)

Trisodium Ascorbyl Palmitate Phosphate (APPS)

APPS is an exceptionally advanced and stable vitamin C derivative. By combining vitamin C (ascorbic acid) with palmitic acid and phosphate groups to form a trisodium salt, it creates a highly stable molecule that exhibits both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties. This unique structure makes it highly favored in the skincare industry, particularly in premium brightening, antioxidant, and anti-aging products.

APPS is an “upgraded version” of regular vitamin C, addressing core issues like instability and poor absorption associated with traditional vitamin C.

Chemical Structure and Properties

Triple-modified structure:

 ●Ascorbic acid moiety: Provides the core vitamin C activity, serving as the source of its whitening, antioxidant, and collagen-boosting capabilities.

●Palmitate Component: A lipophilic (fat-soluble) long chain. This enables APPS to readily penetrate the skin's stratum corneum and cell membranes, as cell membranes are lipid bilayers. This significantly enhances its transdermal absorption rate.

●Phosphate Group and Trisodium Salt: The phosphate group provides excellent chemical stability, making it resistant to oxidation by air and light that causes yellowing and degradation. The trisodium salt form confers good water solubility, facilitating formulation use.

Key Characteristics:

●Exceptional Stability: Highly stable at room temperature, under light exposure, and in air, eliminating the stringent storage requirements of pure vitamin C (e.g., light protection, refrigeration, anhydrous conditions).

●High Transdermal Absorption Rate: Its unique “amphiphilic” nature allows solubility in both aqueous and oil phases, facilitating easier absorption and utilization by the skin.

●Intradermal Conversion: After skin absorption, APPS undergoes hydrolysis by the skin's own enzymes (e.g., phospholipase), releasing pure vitamin C (ascorbic acid) to exert its biological effects. This process is termed “bioconversion.”

Primary Functions and Mechanisms in Skincare Products

1.Powerful Antioxidant

●Mechanism: Neutralizes free radicals (such as reactive oxygen species generated by UV rays and pollution) to prevent oxidative stress damage to skin cells, collagen, and elastic fibers.

●Effect: Prevents photoaging, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, brightens complexion, and protects the skin barrier.

2.Significant Brightening and Spot Reduction

●Mechanism: Inhibits melanin production through multiple pathways:

①Suppresses tyrosinase activity, the key enzyme in melanin synthesis.

②Reduces oxidized melanin (quinone melanin) back to colorless precursors.

●Effect: Effectively fades dark spots and acne marks, improves uneven skin tone, and achieves overall skin brightening and translucency.

3.Promotes Collagen Synthesis

●Mechanism: As a cofactor for prolyl hydroxylase and lysyl hydroxylase, vitamin C is an essential component for collagen synthesis.

●Effect: Increases collagen content in the dermis, resulting in plumper, firmer, and more elastic skin to combat sagging and wrinkles.

4.Synergistic Sun Protection and Repair

●Mechanism: When used with sunscreen, APPS acts as a “second line of defense” by neutralizing free radicals generated by UV rays not fully blocked by sunscreen, enhancing overall photoprotection. Simultaneously, it aids in repairing daytime photo-damage.

Application Areas and Product Types

APPS are widely used in various mid-to-high-end skincare products, commonly found in:

●Serums: As a core active ingredient in brightening and anti-aging serums.

●Ampoules: Delivering high-concentration treatments.

●Creams and Lotions: Used in day creams (for antioxidant benefits) and night creams (for repair).

●Eye Creams: Improving dark circles and fine lines around the eyes.

●Sunscreen products: Enhances photoprotection as an antioxidant.
