    Product Overview:

    Vitamin A acetate is a fat-soluble vitamin, which is a nutritional supplement for Vitamin A. Vitamin A is involved in a variety of physiological processes in the human body, and when there is insufficient Vitamin A in the body, it will lead to impaired function of the optic rod cells, anaemia, decreased immune function, poor growth, etc. Therefore, Vitamin A nutritionally fortified foods have been widely used in many countries. Vitamin A acetate is an unsaturated ester, oily, easy to oxidise, soluble in fat or organic solvents, but insoluble in water, it is difficult to add uniformly to the food J, so the scope of application is limited, the microencapsulation, you can improve its water solubility and stability, and the form of oil into powder, easy to store and transport and progress in processing.

    Vitamin A Acetate Powder Usage and Synthesis.

    Vitamin A Acetate can be absorbed transdermally, anti-keratinisation, stimulate the growth of collagen and elastin, increase the thickness of epidermis and dermis. It enhances skin elasticity, effectively eliminates wrinkles, promotes skin renewal and maintains skin vitality. It is used in eye cream, moisturising cream, repair cream, shampoo and conditioner.

    Functions of Vitamin A Acetate.

    Vitamin A acetate can maintain the normal metabolism of the human body, can maintain the stability and development of cell membranes, maintain the normal function of the reproductive system, the formation of vision, easing the keratinisation of the tissues, and enhance the cellular immunity has a significant role.

    The vitamin is fat-soluble and is a necessary factor in regulating the growth and health of epithelial tissue cells, thinning the surface of rough aged skin and removing wrinkles. It can be used in skin care, wrinkle removal, whitening and other high-level cosmetics.

    Vitamin A Acetate vs Retinol

    Dimension Retinol Vitamin A Acetate
    Potency (Bioactivity) Higher. Retinol is directly usable by the body (no conversion needed) and has stronger biological effects at the same dose. Lower. It must first be converted to retinol (by removing the acetate group) in the liver before the body can use it. ~20% less potent than retinol by weight.
    Stability Less stable. Easily degraded by light, heat, and oxygen (oxidation). Requires opaque, airtight packaging. More stable. The acetate group protects it from oxidation/breakdown, making it easier to formulate and store (e.g., in supplements or skincare).
    Irritation Potential Higher. Directly interacts with skin cells (e.g., accelerates cell turnover), often causing dryness, redness, or peeling (especially at high doses or for sensitive skin). Lower. Its reduced bioactivity means gentler effects on the skin and digestive system. Rarely causes irritation at recommended doses.
    Absorption & Metabolism Absorbed directly in the small intestine (with dietary fat). Immediately available for use in vision, cell growth, etc. Absorbed similarly (with fat) but requires an extra step: the liver cleaves the acetate group to convert it to retinol. This slower conversion reduces "peak" levels in the blood.
    Food Sources Natural animal sources: beef liver, cod liver oil, egg yolks, whole milk. Not naturally occurring in significant amounts. Mostly synthetic (used in supplements/skincare).

    Key Applications: How to Choose?

    A. Dietary Supplements

    Vitamin A is essential for vision, immune function, and cell differentiation. In supplements:

    Vitamin A acetate is the preferred form. Its stability ensures the nutrient does not degrade during production or storage, and its lower bioactivity reduces the risk of vitamin A toxicity (poisoning caused by excessive vitamin A). Most multivitamins or single-vitamin A supplements use this form.

    Retinol is less commonly used in supplements. Its higher bioactivity increases toxicity risk, and it degrades more readily, making it less reliable for long-term use.

    B. Skincare

    Retinol: The gold standard for anti-aging. It penetrates the skin’s outer layer, converts to retinoic acid (the active form that binds to skin cells), and stimulates collagen production, fades dark spots, and unclogs pores. However, its potency causes side effects (dryness, sun sensitivity) — start with low concentrations (0.25–0.5%) and use 2–3x/week.

    Vitamin A Acetate: A “gentle retinoid” for sensitive skin. It converts to retinol slowly in the skin, leading to milder cell turnover and minimal irritation. It is ideal for:

    Beginners new to retinoids.

    Sensitive or dry skin types.

    Preventative skincare (maintaining texture, not targeting severe wrinkles/acne).

    Summary: When to Pick Which?

    Goal Best Choice Reason
    Daily vitamin A supplementation Vitamin A Acetate Stable, low irritation, lower toxicity risk.
    Anti-aging (wrinkles, dark spots) Retinol Higher potency, directly stimulates collagen and cell turnover.
    Sensitive skin or retinoid beginners Vitamin A Acetate Gentle, minimal dryness/redness, gradual effects.
    Long-term product storage Vitamin A Acetate Resists degradation from light/heat/oxygen.

    Vitamin A Acetate Raw

    Product Method of  Bulk Vitamin A Acetate Powder.

    A method for the preparation of vitamin A acetate, comprising the steps of (1) condensation reaction between 3-methyl-4-oxo-2-buten-1-yl acetate (referred to as C5 aldehyde ester) and tetraethyl methylene diphosphonate under alkaline conditions to obtain the intermediate C6 phosphate ester (chemically named as 5-(diethyl phosphonate)-3-methyl-2,4-hexadien-1-yl acetate); (2) C6 phosphate ester was transposed under alkaline conditions and added to C14 aldehyde (chemically named 2-methyl-4-(2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohexen-1-yl)-3-butene-1-aldehyde) in a Wittig-Horner condensation reaction to produce vitamin A acetate.

    Frequently Asked Questions.

    Q: Is vitamin A acetate powder safe for use in infant foods?

    A: Yes. Our vitamin A acetate powder complies with EU Regulation (EU) 2016/127 and the U.S. FDA GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) standard for infant nutrition products. When used at recommended dosages (e.g., 150-200 IU per 100 grams of infant formula), this product is completely safe and effectively prevents infant vitamin A deficiency.

    Q: How does vitamin A acetate powder differ from natural vitamin A sources like beta-carotene?

    A: Unlike β-carotene (which requires conversion to active vitamin A in the body with low conversion efficiency), vitamin A acetate powder is a direct active form—its absorption rate exceeds 85%, making it more suitable for populations with weaker conversion capabilities (such as the elderly, infants, or those with digestive disorders). This product also offers higher stability and is less susceptible to degradation from light or heat during processing.

    Q: Can customized specifications be provided based on product requirements?

    A: Certainly. We can adjust active ingredient concentration (e.g., 250,000 IU/g or 325,000 IU/g), particle size, and carrier (maltodextrin, starch, etc.) according to application scenarios (capsules, tablets, or liquid supplements). Complimentary samples are available for testing to ensure compatibility with your production processes.
