Arginine Ferulate

Product Description

Green Stone Swiss supplies cosmetic-grade Arginine Ferulate as a high-purity L-arginine salt of ferulic acid for bulk antioxidant and skin-conditioning development. Direct factory production targets a defined 1:1 amino acid–phenolic salt rather than a loose blend, with GMP-aligned release, batch COA, TDS, and free samples for incoming QC and aqueous-system trials.

Arginine Ferulate (L-arginine 3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzene)-2-propenoate) pairs NMF-related arginine with the ferulate anion. CosIng lists the ingredient as skin conditioning. The salt is designed for water solubility and easier incorporation into aqueous serums versus poorly water-soluble free ferulic acid, while the phenolic ferulate moiety provides Typical free-radical scavenging support in leave-on systems. Assay and identity are confirmed on the batch COA because this is a discrete salt, not a botanical extract.

Brands specifying water-phase antioxidant serums, day creams, and sun-care-adjacent textures use Arginine Ferulate when they need ferulate chemistry without relying solely on oil-phase solvents. GSS factory-direct supply supports scale-up from sample to production with technical documentation and reliable replenishment.

Key Benefits & Applications

Arginine Ferulate is a water-soluble arginine salt of ferulic acid used as a skin-conditioning antioxidant active in professional aqueous formulas.

• Delivers ferulate chemistry in a water-soluble salt for aqueous serums and emulsions
• Supports free-radical scavenging from the phenolic ferulate moiety (Typical)
• Skin-conditioning arginine salt for hydrated, comfortable barrier feel
• Easier water-phase processing versus poorly soluble free ferulic acid
• Suitable for antioxidant serums, essences, day creams, and sun-care-adjacent textures
• Typical use level: 0.5–2.0% in final formulation

Formulation Guidelines

Use these process notes to keep Arginine Ferulate dissolved and functionally stable in cosmetic systems.

• Suggested Use Level: Typical 0.5–2.0% in final formulation
• pH Range: Suggested 4.5–7.0; avoid prolonged strongly alkaline conditions
• Addition: Predissolve in the water phase; add during cool-down below 45°C (Typical)
• Compatibility: Compatible with water-soluble ascorbyl phosphates, hyaluronates, and glycerin; protect from strong oxidizers and prolonged light exposure; confirm oil-phase tocopherol systems separately
• Combine with Aminopropyl Ascorbyl Phosphate for complementary water-phase ascorbate and ferulate antioxidant support.
