Description
D-Panthenol Product Overview
D-Panthenol (C9H19NO4) is a clear, colorless, very viscous liquid that mixes with water and ethanol; a 75% aqueous solution is easier to handle. The skin and hair convert it into pantothenic acid (vitamin B5).
In addition, cosmetic producers use it at about 0.5–5% in creams, lotions, after-sun and baby care products for moisturizing and soothing, and in shampoos and conditioners to improve hair shine and strength. Similarly, pharmaceutical companies use it in creams, ointments, nasal sprays and eye drops for wound and skin care. It works well together with Allantoin and Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Salt).
Notably, related ingredients in our range include Nicotinamide (Vitamin B3), Calcium Pantothenate (Vitamin B5) and Glycerine.
