Basic Properties
CAS No.: 125-46-2
Usnic acid is a natural dibenzofuran monomer extracted from lichen raw materials. It delivers strong broad-spectrum antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-viral effects. Light yellow crystalline powder; mainstream purity specifications: 98%, 99%. Applicable to pharmaceutical, cosmetic, veterinary and feed additive grades. Store airtight away from light, high heat and moisture to prevent decomposition. Each batch is attached with complete COA, HPLC, heavy metal, residual solvent and microbial test reports.
Production Technology
Natural lichen raw materials undergo ethanol reflux extraction, macroporous resin separation, multiple recrystallization purification and low-temperature vacuum drying. Strictly control heavy metal and solvent residues, high yield of high-purity monomer without harmful impurity contamination.
Core Advantages
High antibacterial activity at low dosage, stable chemical properties under conventional formula processing conditions. Natural plant-derived antibacterial raw material, good compatibility with cream, lotion, ointment and solid tablet formulations.
Application Fields
- Cosmetic raw materials: anti-acne, oil-control, antibacterial additives for facial care, body cream and deodorant products
- Pharmaceutical intermediates: raw material for topical antibacterial ointments, wound care preparations
- Veterinary & feed additives: natural antibacterial growth promoter for livestock and poultry premix
- Daily chemical raw materials: antibacterial ingredients for hand sanitizer, oral care products
Storage & Operation
Vacuum aluminum foil inner bag + fiber drum packaging, warehouse relative humidity ≤60%. Strictly avoid strong light irradiation and high temperature environment. Wear dust-proof gloves, masks and goggles during sampling and blending; store separately from edible food raw materials.
