Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate manufacturer

1. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate Overview

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP), also known as Magnesium L-Ascorbyl-2 Phosphate, is one of vitamin C derivatives. It is synthesized by esterification of vitamin C. MAP not only has the same biological activities as vitamin C, but is more stable than vitamin C. Plamed Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate is cosmetic grade raw material with purity up to 98%. It is white to light yellow powder. Due to its lipophilicity, MAP is easily absorbed by skin. It is a water-soluble whitening agent. It is soluble in water and dilute acid, and is insoluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, chloroform or ether.

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate is one of the most stable and most popular vitamin C derivative. It is a tyrosinase inhibitor that reduces melanin intermediate. After entering human body, it can eliminate oxygen free radicals; also it can promote formation of dermal collagen. It has functions of anti-wrinkle and anti-aging. MAP has become a common additive in whitening and freckle cosmetics.

2. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate Source

At present, there are two main methods to synthesize Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate at home and abroad: direct acylation and group protection.

3. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate VS Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside

	Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate	Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside
Connection	They are derivatives of vitamin C and are more stable than vitamin C.
Molecular Formula	C12H12O18P2Mg3·10H2O	C12H18O11
Molecular Structure
pH stability	Highly stable at pH of about 7	Stable at a wide pH
Whitening mechanism	MAP enters human body and rapidly decomposes into vitamin C by phosphatase. Thereby MAP inhibits tyrosinase activity.	After entering skin cell body, Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside is hydrolyzed by enzymes and converted into vitamin C. Then VC can inhibit activity of tyrosinase and reduce production of melanin.
Application	Whitening and removing freckle, anti-aging cosmetics

6. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP) Benefits

• Whitening skin

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate enters human body and rapidly decomposes into vitamin C by phosphatase. Thereby it exerts the unique function of VC. Thus MAP effectively inhibits tyrosinase; and it can block oxidation process from dopa to melanin. Accordingly, MAP has whitening and removing freckle effect. It can treat skin chloasma, pigmentation, aestates, etc.

• Anti-oxidation

There are two mechanisms for scavenging superoxide anion free radicals by Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate: one is the absorption and utilization of superoxide anion free radicals in human body; and the other is to inhibit production of superoxide anion free radicals in the body. Therefore, MAP has anti-oxidation effect. It can promote dermal collagen formation. It owns anti-wrinkle and anti-aging effect.

7. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate Features

As a whitening ingredient of cosmetic, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate has following features:

• MAP has property of alkali and high temperature resistance. It is not easily oxidized and is stable in light, heat and air. The degree of oxidation in boiling water is only 1/10 of VC.
• MAP inhibits tyrosinase activity, reduces melanin and exerts whitening effect.
• MAP can eliminate oxygen free radicals after entering human body, so as to remove wrinkle, and function as anti-ager.
• Stable, not easy to change color.
• Non-toxic, no irritation.

8. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate Application and Reference Dosage

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate is widely used in whitening, anti-wrinkle, anti-aging cosmetics, such as eye cream, essence, emulsion, toner, cream, sunscreen, foundation; but also it can be made into detergent, such as eye cleaner, shower gel and toothpaste.

Attention:

• MAP is stable in neutral pH, and has no irritation to skin.
• It is usually used in combination with vitamin E for synergistic effect.
• It is most stable in solution and emulsion.
• Excessive use of MAP can interfere with normal enzyme conversion of tyrosine into melanin in skin, which may cause adverse reactions to skin.
