Zinc Ricinoleate Powder

Application & Integration

Zinc Ricinoleate powder is a white to off-white, free-flowing, odour-absorbing essential for natural deodorant formulations.  Zinc Ricinoleate powder is not anti-microbial or anti-bacterial, so it does not interfere with the skin's natural microbial flora. It works differently by actively neutralizing odour compounds, trapping and absorbing them, and seamlessly emulsifying them into oils and waxes.

Melting point 176°F to 222°F

Recommended usage rate is 1.5–3% by weight

Water-insoluble and derived from castor oil and zinc sources. 

How does it work?  Zinc Ricinoleate actively neutralizes odour compounds produced when bacteria break down perspiration, offering effective odour control in both solid and emulsified deodorant formats.

Sourced from the USA, this ingredient (INCI: Zinc Ricinoleate) is ideal for formulators developing natural or conventional deodorant products.
