40% water-soluble salicylic acid is a compound widely used in cosmetics and pharmaceutical products for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and exfoliating properties. However, 40% water-soluble salicylic acid also has some disadvantages, such as causing skin irritation and discomfort at high concentrations, poor water solubility, and limited application.

In order to overcome these shortcomings, Zhiyuan Biotechnology has developed an inclusion complex of salicylic acid and cyclodextrin – 40% water-soluble salicylic acid based on cyclodextrin inclusion technology. Cyclodextrin is a ring-shaped molecule that contains salicylic acid within it, forming a stable complex.

The advantages of this product mainly include the following points:

Improve stability: The 40% water-soluble salicylic acid has better stability and can prevent salicylic acid from decomposing or deactivating under high temperature, high humidity or acid-base environment.

Reduce irritation: The 40% water-soluble salicylic acid can reduce the irritation and discomfort of salicylic acid, making it more suitable for sensitive skin.

Improve dermal permeability: The 40% water-soluble salicylic acid can enhance the permeability of salicylic acid in the skin, there by improving its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and cuticle exfoliation effects.

Increased solubility: The 40% water-soluble salicylic acid can increase the solubility of salicylic acid in water, making it easier to use.

In summary, 40% water-soluble salicylic acid has many advantages and can improve the physical and chemical properties and biological activity of salicylic acid, thereby improving its application effect in cosmetics and pharmaceutical products.
