Properties
Description
Sodium palmitoyl hyaluronate with a molecular weight ranging from 10 to 200 kDa, is a valuable ingredient frequently employed in cosmetics and medical applications, contributing to improved hydration, skin health, and overall product efficacy.
Molecular Weight
10-200 kDa
Source
Sodium palmitoyl hyaluronate is chemically modified sodium hyaluronate (SH). Modification was achieved by an acylation process.
Form
White powder or granules
Solubility
Solubility properties are influenced by molecular weight (MW) and the degree of substitution (DS) of the derivative, the higher these parameters, the slower the dissolution in water. Solubility of the derivatives may be increased by adding alcohols to aqueous solutions.
Applications
Sodium palmitoyl hyaluronate with a molecular weight of 10-200 kDa can be used for the study of skin-care formulations, showcasing its potential to enhance skin moisturization and elasticity through its unique structure and properties.
