Price range: 11,75 € through 141,35 €
Inci: Zinc Ricinoleate

Zinc Ricinoleate is a raw material of natural origin, a highly effective odor absorber, based on the zinc salt of ricinoleic acid. Unlike classic deodorant actives, it has no antimicrobial effect, which means that it does not disrupt the natural microflora of the skin or block the physiological process of sweating. It works by chemically binding odor molecules (short-chain fatty acids, amines and sulfur compounds), thus neutralizing them instead of masking them. It is suitable for a wide range of deodorant formulations; emulsions (roll-on, creams, sprays), as well as stick products.

Description
Key features
- 100% natural origin (ISO 16128: Ino = 1.00)
- COSMOS approved
- Active ingredient: 98.5%
- Appearance: white pellets
- Stable in the pH range 4 – 8
- Does not significantly affect the viscosity of emulsions
✔ Does not clog pores
✔ Does not disrupt the microbiome
✔ It does not mask, but neutralizes
✔ Ideal for “clean”, dermo and sensitive formulations
It is particularly relevant for brands that want to:
- formulate microbiome-friendly deodorants
- avoid classic antiperspirant mechanisms
- develop natural and COSMOS concepts
- offer an alternative to the “aluminium-free” category that really works
Formulation insight
- It is added to the oil phase and heated above 85°C for complete dissolution.
- The sticks require a small amount of water (~5%) for activation
- Avoid combination with Sodium Phytate (chelates zinc → loss of effectiveness)
