VCIP Oil


VCIP full name Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate / Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate, CAS:183476-82-6, a classic fat-soluble vitamin C derivative, pale yellow transparent oily liquid with excellent oil miscibility. It avoids the instability and irritation of raw vitamin C; after skin absorption, it gradually decomposes into active VC to play antioxidant brightening effect. Food-grade VCIP is used for oral antioxidant soft capsules, anti-glycation nutritional supplements. Cosmetic-grade VCIP is widely applied in oil essence, face cream, sunscreen, foundation, sensitive skin brightening anti-aging skincare.

We supply 99% high-purity VCIP original oil and 50% VCIP plant oil diluent. Strictly control free VC content, peroxide value, heavy metals, residual solvents and microorganisms, compliant with FDA GRAS, CosIng, ISO22716, GMP, HALAL & KOSHER. Free testing samples and complete COA & SDS documents can be provided for formula development.

Core Benefits & Functional Mechanism of VCIP


VCIP is an ester-modified fat-soluble vitamin C derivative with ultra-high stability. It resists light, heat and oxidation, hardly turns yellow and fails during production and shelf life. When used orally, VCIP is digested and decomposed into active VC in the body, scavenges systemic free radicals, inhibits glycation, delays whole-body aging. When applied topically, VCIP dissolves along skin sebum and penetrates deep into the dermis, slowly releases active vitamin C, inhibits melanin synthesis, fades acne marks and sun pigmentation, blocks UV-induced oxidative damage, promotes collagen production, smooths fine lines; mild formula does not stimulate fragile barrier skin.

VCIP cannot be added to full water formulas; it needs oil emulsification matching. Classic compound collocation: oral VCIP + Vitamin E + Resveratrol anti-oxidation capsule; skincare VCIP + Idebenone + Squalane anti-photoaging brightening oil formula

  • Ultra-stable structure: no decomposition under light/high temp, solves raw VC instability and yellowing troubles
  • Lipophilic deep penetration: enters dermis through lipid channel, better long-term brightening effect than water-soluble VC
  • Dual oral & topical efficacy: internal anti-glycation antioxidant, external fade spots anti-wrinkle anti-sun damage
  • Mild low irritation: no acidic irritation, suitable for sensitive skin and retinol intolerant skin
  • Full oil-phase compatibility: compatible with cream, oil, sunscreen, makeup, soft capsule all oil formulasFull oil-phase compatibility: compatible with cream, oil, sunscreen, makeup, soft capsule all oil formulas
  • Dual-grade separation: food grade for oral consumption, cosmetic grade meets cosmetic filing standards

VCIP Esterification Synthesis & Molecular Distillation Purification Process


Complete Manufacturing Process Steps

  1. High-purity L-ascorbic acid raw material inspection, heavy metal and microbial pre-screening
  2. Closed low-temperature catalytic esterification reaction with isopalmitate under nitrogen protection
  3. Multi-stage high-vacuum molecular distillation to remove unreacted raw VC and fatty acid impurities
  4. Adsorption decolorization and fine filtration to eliminate yellow substances and particulate impurities
  5. Deodorization treatment to remove residual solvent and fatty odor
  6. Custom dilution with cold-pressed plant oil to prepare 50% VCIP ready-to-use oil solution
  7. HPLC full index testing, light-proof nitrogen-sealed aseptic filling

GMP closed low-temperature synthesis workshop, whole process nitrogen protection to prevent oxidation of finished oil. Strictly control free VC and peroxide value, batch color and solubility keep consistent, fully meet global food and cosmetic raw material safety regulations.
