Zinc ricinoleate is a zinc salt of ricinoleic acid, which is derived from castor oil.
Zinc ricinoleate is commonly used in cosmetic and personal care products as an odor absorber. It works by trapping and neutralizing the odor-causing molecules that are produced by the bacteria on the skin.
When added to cosmetic and personal care products, zinc ricinoleate does not affect the product’s texture, appearance, or stability. It has a very low vapor pressure, which means it does not evaporate or release any odor molecules into the air. Instead, it binds to and traps the odor molecules, preventing them from escaping and causing unpleasant odors.
Zinc ricinoleate is also safe to use and does not cause any skin irritation or sensitization. It is a natural, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly ingredient that does not have any adverse effects on the skin or the environment.
To use zinc ricinoleate in cosmetic and personal care products for odor control, it is usually added at a concentration of 0.5% to 2%, depending on the product and the desired level of odor control. It can be used in a wide range of products, including deodorants, antiperspirants, foot powders, body lotions, and creams, among others.
