The Highly Efficient and Stable Whitening Agent
Kojic Acid Dipalmitate (KAD) is an efficient, new generation whitening agent that effectively suppresses the activity of tyrosinase and blocks or delays the formation of melanin. Its esterification with palmitic acid significantly reduces its sensitivity to light and heat, making it less prone to yellowing due to oxidation.
| INCI Name | Kojic Acid Dipalmitate |

| CAS No. | 79725-98-7 |
| Source | Derivative of Kojic Acid |
| Appearance | White crystalline powder |
| Core Function | Blocks melanin formation, high-efficiency, stable, safe whitening agent. |
For high-end skincare formulators, the instability of traditional brightening actives is a persistent hurdle. Exposure to light, heat, and oxygen often leads to formulation discoloration and reduced bioactivity long before the product reaches the consumer. Kojic Acid Dipalmitate (KAD) represents the next evolutionary step in depigmentation technology. By esterifying Kojic Acid with palmitic acid, we have engineered an oil-soluble, highly stable derivative that eliminates the “yellowing” common in traditional brightening serums while delivering superior penetration and potent tyrosinase inhibition.
High-Efficiency Melanin Block: Demonstrates a tyrosinase inhibition efficacy rate exceeding 80%, providing a robust defense against hyperpigmentation.
Clinical Cell Inhibition: At a concentration of just 5ug/ml, it significantly inhibits the growth of B16 melanoma cells; at 50ug/ml, it achieves a reduction in melanin content to approximately 68%.
Unmatched Stability: Confirmed stability over 100+ days of rigorous testing, proving its superiority over standard Kojic Acid and Arbutin in preventing oxidative degradation and ensuring the integrity of your final emulsion.

Empower your R&D pipeline with these optimized, synergistic combinations to create industry-leading brightening products:
The “Stability-Enhanced” Brightening Emulsion: Pair with Vitamin C Ethyl Ether. While the KAD acts as a stable, oil-phase anchor for depigmentation, the Vitamin C provides immediate surface radiance, creating a multi-layer brightening effect that resists degradation.
The “Spot-Correction” Concentrate: Integrate with Cyanoside (Cyanidin). This pairing creates a powerful defense system against UV-induced pigment pathways, offering a high-performance spot treatment that remains stable in non-aqueous or anhydrous bases.
The “Advanced Plumping & Brightening” Cream: Combine with Squalane and Ceramides. The oil-soluble nature of KAD integrates flawlessly into these lipid-rich systems, ensuring deep dermal penetration while maintaining a luxurious, non-greasy skin feel.
