Sugar Cane Extract
Octacosanol
Octacosanol (1‑Octacosanol), main active constituent of Policosanol, is long‑chain aliphatic alcohol derived from sugar‑cane wax or rice‑bran wax. It appears as white to off‑white crystalline / flaky powder, practically insoluble in water, dispersible in hot oil‑phase and organic solvent. We supply mixed Policosanol blends as well as high‑content Octacosanol monomer grades for nutraceutical and cosmetic applications.
Non‑GMO, Vegan, BSE‑TSE free. Complies with ISO22000, HACCP, GMP, HALAL & KOSHER, US‑GRAS reference documents and CosIng database. Widely used in endurance‑support sports nutrition capsules, cholesterol‑wellness tablets, moisturizing anti‑aging cream and skin barrier repair ointment formulas. Stable batches, factory wholesale price, free samples and complete COA, GC chromatogram & SDS documents are provided.

Core Benefits & Functional Mechanism
Octacosanol is signature long‑chain aliphatic alcohol isolated from plant wax. As nutraceutical raw material, Policosanol / Octacosanol is widely applied for sports endurance‑support and lipid wellness formulas. For cosmetics, it acts as skin‑compatible wax‑alcohol ingredient to strengthen skin barrier, deliver moisturizing and anti‑aging effects for cream and ointment systems.
Classic compound collocation: blend with Coenzyme Q10, Astaxanthin, Resveratrol for multi‑antioxidant nutraceutical formulas; compound with plant oils for cosmetic oil‑phase system. Since it is water‑insoluble, heating is required for uniform dispersion within oil‑phase during cosmetic manufacturing.
- Plant‑derived long‑chain aliphatic alcohol, main marker component of Policosanol wax‑alcohol complex.
- Nutraceutical application: sports endurance support & lipid wellness oral supplement raw.
- Cosmetic performance: strengthen skin barrier, moisturizing and anti‑aging for oil‑phase cream‑base.
- Stable chemical property: resistant to light, weak‑acid and weak‑base condition.
- Multi‑grade options: mixed Policosanol blends and high‑purity Octacosanol monomer available.
- Vegan clean‑label friendly for global nutraceutical and cosmetic brand requirements.
Tip: Nutraceutical serving:5‑20mg Octacosanol per serving; cosmetic addition:0.3‑3.0%, must be heated and dispersed in oil‑phase system. Store sealed cool‑dry & light‑proof; avoid direct water‑phase addition without oil‑dissolving pretreatment.
Octacosanol / Policosanol Production Process
Complete Manufacturing Steps
- Premium sugar‑cane wax / rice‑bran wax raw‑material sorting and impurity‑removal pretreatment.
- Purification pre‑treatment for crude wax, remove non‑wax miscellaneous impurities.
- Multi‑stage molecular‑distillation separation & enrichment of long‑chain aliphatic‑alcohol fractions.
- Multiple recrystallization to raise Octacosanol / Policosanol target content.
- Low‑temperature solvent‑removal procedure to eliminate residual organic solvent.
- Crushing & particle‑size sieving to obtain uniform flaky‑crystal powder.
- Light‑proof moisture‑proof vacuum sealed packaging with unique batch trace‑code.
All separation and recrystallization processes are operated in GMP clean workshop. Strict GC gas‑chromatography monitoring for each batch aliphatic‑alcohol component ratio, guarantee stable component indexes batch‑by‑batch for nutraceutical and cosmetic raw‑material global‑specifications.
