Details:

Cosmetic Raw Materials 1,3-Dihydroxyacetone / DHA Powder CAS 96-26-4

 

Description:
1,3-Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet odor. It is a simple sugar molecule and belongs to the class of ketoses. DHA is primarily derived from natural sources, such as sugar cane or sugar beets.

Specification:
The specifications of 1,3-Dihydroxyacetone can vary depending on the specific grade and application. Here are some general specifications:

• Chemical formula: C3H6O3
• Molecular weight: 90.08 g/mol
• Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow liquid
• Purity: Typically, not less than 98% or higher (depending on the grade)
• Density: Approximately 1.33 g/cm³
• Melting point: Approximately 80-85 °C
• Boiling point: Approximately 150-151 °C
• Solubility: Soluble in water and most organic solvents

Application:
The primary application of 1,3-Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is in the cosmetic industry, specifically in self-tanning products. It provides a temporary tan or artificial color to the skin without exposure to UV radiation. DHA interacts with the amino acids in the outermost layer of the skin, resulting in a chemical reaction that produces a brown pigment called melanoidin. This reaction is commonly known as the Maillard reaction.

Self-tanning products containing DHA are available in various forms, including lotions, creams, sprays, and wipes. They are used to achieve a sun-kissed or bronzed appearance without the risks associated with sun exposure or tanning beds. The resulting tan typically lasts for several days as the skin naturally sheds its outermost layer.

Features:

1. Non-toxic and non-carcinogenic: DHA is considered safe for topical application on the skin and is approved by regulatory authorities such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in self-tanning products.

2. Temporary color: DHA provides a temporary tan that gradually fades as the skin naturally exfoliates. The longevity of the tan depends on factors such as individual skin characteristics, skincare routine, and product formulation.

3. Customizable color: The intensity of the tan achieved with DHA can be tailored based on factors such as the concentration of DHA in the product, application method, and duration of product contact with the skin. This allows users to control the desired level of color.

4. Quick results: DHA-based self-tanning products typically provide visible results within a few hours of application. The full development of the tan may take up to 24 hours, depending on the product formulation.

5. Compatibility with other ingredients: DHA is compatible with various cosmetic ingredients, allowing its incorporation into different types of self-tanning formulations. It can be combined with moisturizers, emollients, and other skincare ingredients to enhance the overall performance and sensory characteristics of the product.
