Alfa Chemistry Offers Wax Esters for Use in Cosmetics and Pharmaceutical Industry

New York, United States – May 17, 2022 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

Earlier this month, Alfa Chemistry announces the offering of was esters, a type of lipids for potential uses in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industry. Alfa Chemistry is a recognized supplier of various fatty acids and lipids, including fatty acids and esters, glycerides, sphingolipids, sterols, fatty alcohols, fatty amines, soaps of fatty acids, fatty acetates, and alkyl methane sulfonates for customers around the world.

Wax esters are major constituents of the surface lipids. They are found in microorganism, animal, and plant tissues and play an important role in waterproofing and also serve as energy reserves in marine organisms. Most of the wax esters in their natural form contain small amounts of sterols, sterol esters, fatty alcohols, fatty acids, and resinous matters.

“Traditionally, waxes are extracted from plants and animals but too expensive or scarce to be commercialized. Therefore, researchers resort to industrial synthesis to produce waxes in a larger volume,” says one of the senior scientists from Alfa Chemistry.  

All the wax esters provided by Alfa Chemistry are fast-delivered and are purposed to support many research projects in multiple fields, whether saturated or unsaturated. Consisting of a fatty acid esterified to a fatty alcohol, wax ester serves a variety of biological functions. Overall, wax esters are widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceutical and industrial applications.
