Cetyl Tranexamate HCL

Cetyl Tranexamate HCl (also known as TXC, CAS 913541-96-5) is an ester derivative of tranexamic acid formed from lipid hydrocarbon chains, offering deeper skin penetration than plain tranexamic acid; once absorbed, skin esterases gradually convert it to active tranexamic acid, giving a whitening effect the supplier describes as lasting around 12 hours by inhibiting the plasminogen/plasmin pathway involved in melanin production. Supplied as a white fine powder at 99% purity for use as a cosmetic raw material in creams, lotions, and whitening serums, often alongside other brightening actives such as alpha arbutin, glutathione, and vitamin C, it is manufactured directly by Shaanxi Yuantai Biological Technology Co., Ltd, a company established in 2014 that holds ISO 9001, ISO 22000, HALAL, KOSHER, HACCP, and FDA certifications. Samples are available, and the product is sold across North America, Latin America, Europe, Australasia, and Asia.
