It is the process by which unpleasant compounds,

from an organoleptic point of view, are generated

in fats due to exposure to oxygen. Light, heat or

humidity can accelerate this process.

What is Oxidative Rancidity?

How does BTSAsolve it?

Tocobiol® C is a tocopherol-based natural

antioxidant designed exclusively by BTSA in

1994, to protect cosmetic and personal care

formulations against oxidation, increasing their

shelf-life while preserving its active ingredients.

The high antioxidant power of Tocobiol® C is the result of

the synergy between its main components such as

tocopherols, monoglycerides, squalene and plant sterols,

which are naturally present in the product.

- Better performance- Less cost-in-use

- Higher emulsifying capacity- Better dispersion

Natural Vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol) is the

best alternative to synthetic Vitamin E due to

its higher bio-availability and

healthier-for-you marketing opportunities.

� Moisturising products

� Anti-aging products

� Anti-wrinkle products

� Sunscreen & After sun products

� Anti-pollution products

� Color cosmetics

Natural Vitamin E is a single stereoisomer (called

"RRR") while synthetic Vitamin E is a mixture of 8

different stereoisomers, where only one of them is the

same as the natural one.

After the absorption of Vitamin E, the transport

protein α-TTP, which is present in the liver, prioritizes

the recognition of the natural form over synthetic. Due

to this, natural Vitamin E is retained better and for a

longer time in the body than synthetic Vitamin E.
