Ascorbyl Palmitate Supplier in Malaysia
Ascorbyl palmitate supplier in Malaysia for food, feed, personal-care and ingredient manufacturers. Ascorbyl palmitate is the ester of ascorbic acid and palmitic acid, identified by CAS 137-66-6 and supplied as a neat crystalline powder or as a prepared form designed for controlled distribution in a formulation.
Buyers may specify neat ingredient powder, a dispersible preparation or a carrier-based free-flowing grade. The commercial specification should distinguish active ascorbyl palmitate content from the total preparation and declare any carrier, dispersion medium, particle behaviour and relevant impurity limits.
Suitable grades are used as antioxidant ingredients in oils, fats, food and feed premixes, personal-care emulsions and other compatible systems. Ascorbic acid, palmitic acid and finished multi-ingredient antioxidant blends remain separate products and should not be used as aliases for this ingredient.
Send the required ascorbyl palmitate form, specification, quantity and delivery location for a quotation. Availability, packing, ingredient documents and delivery timing are confirmed against the stated active and carrier requirement.

Ascorbyl Palmitate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neat ascorbyl palmitate ingredient powder | fine crystalline powder | — | Food, feed and personal-care systems where the buyer specifies ascorbyl palmitate identity, assay basis, moisture, colour and relevant impurity limits for direct incorporation into a compatible phase. | Pack format and ingredient documents are confirmed with the quotation. |
| Dispersible ascorbyl palmitate preparation | fine dispersible powder or prepared dispersion | — | Manufacturing processes that need controlled distribution of ascorbyl palmitate, with the active content, dispersion medium, particle behaviour and application compatibility declared by the buyer. | Packing and dispersion details are confirmed for the quoted requirement. |
| Carrier-based ascorbyl palmitate powder | free-flowing powder on a declared carrier | — | Dry premixes and ingredient blends where the formulator needs a specified ascorbyl palmitate contribution, carrier identity, flow profile and mixing behaviour rather than neat crystalline material. | Pack format, active basis and carrier composition are confirmed with the quotation. |

Ascorbyl Palmitate applications
Safety and handling
Keep ascorbyl palmitate sealed in a cool, dry place and protect it from moisture, excessive heat, light and contamination. Follow the storage and handling information supplied for the quoted neat or prepared grade.
Common questions about Ascorbyl palmitate
Is ascorbyl palmitate the same as ascorbic acid?
No. Ascorbyl palmitate is an ester made from ascorbic acid and palmitic acid, with different solubility and formulation behaviour from ascorbic acid. They should be specified as separate ingredient identities.
Is ascorbyl palmitate the same as palmitic acid?
No. Palmitic acid is a fatty acid, while ascorbyl palmitate is a defined ester with CAS 137-66-6. A buyer should use the full ingredient name and CAS number to avoid substituting one for the other.
When should I request neat powder or a dispersible grade?
Neat crystalline powder suits processes that can incorporate the ingredient directly into a compatible phase. A dispersible or carrier-based grade may suit controlled dosing or mixing, but its active basis and full preparation composition must be stated.
Can ascorbyl palmitate be added directly to a water-based product?
Its behaviour differs from water-soluble ascorbic acid. For a water-rich system, specify a suitable dispersible preparation and validate the addition method, particle distribution and stability in the complete formulation.
Does this page cover finished antioxidant blends?
No. This page covers ascorbyl palmitate and clearly declared carrier or dispersion preparations. Blends containing tocopherols, emulsifiers or other antioxidants require their own full ingredient and active-content specification.
Which specifications matter when buying ascorbyl palmitate?
State the ingredient form, ascorbyl palmitate content, assay basis, moisture, colour, relevant impurity limits and particle or dispersion requirements. For prepared grades, include the carrier or dispersion-medium identity.
What details are needed for an ascorbyl palmitate quote in Malaysia?
Send the grade and composition specification, application, quantity, delivery location and timing. Mention packing and document needs so they can be addressed for the specific quotation.
