What is Caffeic Acid Powder?   

Caffeic acid is a naturally occurring organic acid belonging to the phenolic acid class of compounds. It is widely found in various plants, its name deriving from its initial discovery in coffee, but it is also abundant in many fruits, vegetables, and traditional Chinese medicines. Caffeic acid is a small molecule phenolic acid produced during plant metabolism. It is a key precursor for the synthesis of lignin (a key component of plant cell walls) and a variety of other complex compounds.

Applications

In the pharmaceutical field, its derivative, caffeic acid is a commonly used hemostatic drug in clinical practice, working by promoting platelet aggregation and enhancing capillary resistance. It is also an ingredient in certain hepatoprotective and choleretic medications and traditional Chinese medicine formulas.

In cosmetics and skincare products, it is added to serums and creams as a natural antioxidant to combat free radical-induced skin aging. By inhibiting tyrosinase activity, it helps reduce melanin production, resulting in whitening and lightening effects. It is used in products targeting inflammatory skin conditions such as acne and allergies.

In the food industry, its antioxidant and antibacterial properties are used to extend the shelf life of foods. In processes such as coffee roasting, it is an important precursor to the formation of complex aroma compounds.

Product Parameters

For some products that require special packaging during transportation, we will carry out more delicate packaging. For example, retinal needs to be stored at -20 °C, so we choose cold chain transportation during transportation; deoxyarbutin will change color during transportation, so we will Vacuum packing of deoxyarbutin
