Ferulic Acid Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Trans-Ferulic Acid
Ferulic Acid is supplied to Malaysian formulators as a defined phenolic ingredient for personal-care, food and nutrition, pharmaceutical development and laboratory work. Commercial requirements commonly identify purified trans-ferulic acid and then set the assay method, isomer profile and related- substance controls needed for the application.
Personal-care projects may also specify particle profile and compatibility with an emulsion, oil or solvent system. Food, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical enquiries need their own ingredient-grade specification and qualification criteria, while laboratory work may prioritise a tighter identity or impurity profile. These grades are selected against the buyer's written requirement.
Purified ferulic acid is not the same commercial material as a rice bran or other botanical extract that merely contains ferulic acid within a wider plant matrix. Finished creams, capsules, beverages and proprietary antioxidant blends are also separate products. This page covers the raw ferulic acid ingredient without making therapeutic, cosmetic-performance or consumer efficacy claims.
Send the required Ferulic Acid grade, isomer and assay basis, intended application, target specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, suitable packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.
- Grade
- purified trans-ferulic acid, personal-care formulation grade, food and nutraceutical ingredient grade, laboratory grade

Ferulic Acid 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Purified trans-Ferulic Acid | crystalline powder | — | Formulation and technical work that specifies ferulic acid as a defined compound, with the trans isomer, assay basis and related-substance profile stated in the material specification. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Personal-care formulation grade | fine crystalline powder | — | Skin-care, hair-care and toiletry development where the formulator requires a declared ferulic acid identity, purity basis, particle profile and compatibility with the complete formulation. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Food and nutraceutical ingredient grade | crystalline powder | — | Ingredient formulation where the buyer specifies identity, isomer basis, purity controls and application-specific quality requirements. Supply is subject to applicable requirements. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Laboratory grade | fine crystalline powder | — | Method development, formulation trials and research work that calls for a defined ferulic acid grade rather than a botanical extract containing a variable mixture of phenolic compounds. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Safety and handling
Keep ferulic acid sealed in a dry, well-ventilated place and protect it from excessive heat, strong light and contamination. Follow the handling and storage information supplied for the quoted grade.
Common questions about Ferulic Acid
Is ferulic acid the same as trans-ferulic acid?
Trans-ferulic acid is the geometric isomer commonly specified for purified commercial material. State the required isomer and related-substance profile on the enquiry rather than assuming every ferulic acid preparation has the same isomer basis.
Is ferulic acid the same as a rice bran or botanical extract?
No. Purified ferulic acid is a defined compound, while an extract contains a broader plant matrix and may only declare ferulic acid as one constituent. The two materials need separate composition, identity and quality criteria.
How do source route and grade affect a ferulic acid specification?
Different production or isolation routes may carry different impurity, solvent and traceability considerations even when the purified compound has the same identity. Ask for the source-route declaration and grade-specific controls that matter to the intended application.
Which ferulic acid grade should a buyer request?
Name the application first, then state the required isomer, assay method, related-substance controls and particle or dispersion needs. Personal-care, food or nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and laboratory requirements should not be treated as interchangeable specifications.
Does ferulic acid dissolve directly into every formulation?
Do not assume that one powder grade will disperse or dissolve in every base. Provide the solvent, oil, emulsion or dry-blend system and processing conditions so particle profile and formulation compatibility can be assessed during development.
Which documents can be requested with ferulic acid?
List the documents and test results required by the buyer's qualification process. Available documentation is confirmed for the selected grade and production basis with the quotation rather than guaranteed across every option.
What details are needed for a ferulic acid quotation?
Include the grade, isomer requirement, assay and test-method basis, intended application, target specification, quantity, preferred packing and delivery location. These details establish the correct commercial comparison.
