Catalog Number | CI-SC-0042 |
Product Name | Hyaluronic Acid SLMW |
CAS | 9067-32-7 |
Structure | |
Description | Hyaluronic acid (sodium hyaluronate) is a natural polysaccharide (sugar) that occurs in body tissues including the skin providing hydration, stability, lubrication. The SLMW (super low-molecular-weight) form is made by enzymatically cleaving high-molecular weight hyaluronic acid into small fragments. Molecular weight 8-15kDa. Shelf-life up to 2 years if stored protected from humidity, sunlight and microbial contamination. |
Solubility | Water-soluble |
Appearance | Off-white odorless, fluffy powder |
Application | Hydrating, moisturizing creams & lotions, anti-aging & anti-wrinkle products, pre/after sun lotions, protecting / nourishing & moisturizing skin care products, products for sensitive or dry skin. |
Storage | Store in a closed container at a dry place at room temperature |

GMO | GMO-free |
HS Code | 3304995000 |
INCI | Sodium hyaluronate |
Manufacture | Hyaluronic acid is produced biotechnologically through microbial fermentation with the aid of yeast extract and peptones and serums. The high-molecular weight hyaluronic acid is then further enzymatically cleaved into smaller fragments. |
Preservation | Preservative-free |
Purity Grade | No purity grade applicable |
Raw Material Source | Glucose, soy peptone and yeast extract |
Uses | Typically used at 0.1-10%, a higher percentage is possible because the Low-molecular weight HA does not gel like the HMW-Hyaluronic acid. It may still clump and therefore needs to be mixed very well. Adding some glycerin or using a high-shear mixer is recommended to avoid clumping. The consistency of the powder is less "fluffy" than compared to the regular high molecular hyaluronic acid. There is no thickening effect like with the high molecular hyaluronic acid, making a higher concentration easier to deal with. |
