Application Of Cyclodextrin And Its Derivatives In Perfume

Some fragrances which are easy to oxidize, decompose and deteriorate, and unstable to light and heat can be made into inclusion compound of β - cyclodextrin for storage and use. In this way, the original flavor can be maintained, the deterioration can be prevented, and the storage time can be prolonged. Vanillin, which is widely used as flavoring agent for chocolate, ice cream and wine, and β - cyclodextrin inclusion complexes such as citral and ionone are very common. This kind of stabilized flavor inclusion complex is of great significance in food flavoring.

Not only that, the use of cyclodextrin encapsulated essence in cosmetics can prolong the fragrance retention time, reduce the irritation of essence to the skin, or make it use in water based products. For example, s-tocopherol can neutralize free radicals and avoid causing permanent skin damage, so it can be used as an anti wrinkle agent in cosmetics. After inclusion with cyclodextrin, it can be added to the cosmetic formula to solve the problem of oxidation and loss of activity.

Cyclodextrin (Betadex Sulfobutyl Ether Sodium,Hydroxypropyl Betadex) can also contain polyunsaturated fatty acids exuded from skin, prevent their oxidative deterioration, inhibit the formation of free radicals, reduce skin infection and inflammation, and is an effective anti acne agent.
