Capsaicin Powder Usage and Synthesis.

Capsaicin, also known as capsaicin or capsaicin, with the chemical name of trans-8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenyl amide, is an extremely pungent vanillyl amide alkaloid in chilli peppers with antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-tumour and anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, which is widely used in the fields of food and health care, pharmaceuticals, planting, farming, paint industry and military, and has a higher value of application.

Uses and functions of Capsaicin.

1. Biological control

a. Green grain storage with capsaicin as the main component of rodent repellent for rural grain storage pests have a good repellent effect, containing 1% capsaicin repellent repellent effect can be maintained for more than five months.

b. Protection of cables and optical fibre cable capsaicin irritation of animals will have a repellent effect, for cable, optical fibre cable industry can be used as a rodent-proof cable sheathing plastic additives; used in PVC, PE and other plastics can be prevented from rodents, termites on the product of the eclipse injury

c. Anti-fouling coatings using capsaicin repellent properties made of bio-fouling coatings, coated on ships and offshore buildings in contact with seawater, can effectively prevent the attachment of marine organisms and aquatic organisms in the hull of the gathering. At present, capsaicin has replaced organotin as a new type of anti-fouling coatings for ships and offshore buildings in the field of anti-fouling.

d. Bio-pesticide capsaicin in the field of bio-pesticides can be used as a new type of green pesticides, has a good touch, repellent effect on crop pest control can be achieved with high efficacy, long-lasting and degradable characteristics, is a new type of environmentally friendly bio-pesticides.

2.Medical beauty

a.Medical capsaicin has significant effect on neuropathic pain, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, psoriasis, acne, baldness and so on. One of the analgesic is currently the most mature capsaicin research application. Capsaicin can also be used in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, in addition, capsaicin can prevent and control peptic ulcer and respiratory diseases, and has a weight loss, anti-fatigue and assist in detoxification of special effects.

b. Beauty can be used as a raw material for the production of beauty care products, for the face, arm skin improvement, but different parts of the concentration of the difference should be noted.

3. Other fields

a.Military capsaicin has a good effect of tear, can trigger a strong physiological reaction in the human body, so that people produce coughing, vomiting, tears and other symptoms, and even disorientation, but there are no toxic side effects, so in the military is the manufacture of tear gas canisters, tear gas gun and the main raw material for defence weapons, in the United States, Japan, Germany and Southeast Asia and other countries have been widely used. At the same time, capsaicin is also used for personal defence weapons and tools to subdue offenders.

b. Food additives can be used in food industry in a variety of spicy food processing, including a variety of spicy fat food, daily condiments, spicy sauces, baked goods. In addition, capsaicin has strong antibacterial, bactericidal properties, bacteria, fungi and yeast have a certain inhibition, can be used as a potential food preservation agent.

Physical and Chemical Properties of Capsaicin.

The nature of capsaicin-like substances and capsaicin is very similar to capsaicin, capsaicin pure product was monoclinic rectangular flake or needle colorless crystals, melting point 65 ℃, boiling point 210-220 ℃, soluble in ethanol, ether, acetone, benzene and chloroform and other organic solvents and hot water and dilute alkali solution, slightly soluble in carbon disulfide, insoluble in cold water, capsaicin-like substances are chemically stable in a variety of organic solvents in the process of extraction losses Very small, but at high temperature will produce irritating vapour.

In alkali solution, phthalamide will be hydrolysed into vanillylamine and decenoic acid. It is easy to crystallise in ether and petroleum ether. Capsaicin is weakly acidic because of its phenol light group, and can be colour-forming reaction with Ferrin reagent.

As the nitrogen atom in the molecule of capsaicinoid molecule exists in the form of phthalamide bond, the alkalinity is almost disappeared, and it can't combine with acid to react. Capsaicin in low concentration often forms purple oil soluble substance with pigment body, ligand body and phospholipid.
