Parchem – fine & specialty chemicals serves a wide variety of industries, from food additives to cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. This week Parchem highlights Cocoa Butter, a widely used ingredient in many applications such as cooking and cosmetics.
Cocoa Butter [ CAS # 8002-31-1 ], also known as Theobroma Oil, consists of various fatty acids and is considered very stable. It occurs as a solid at room temperature, but melts at temperatures close to 100°F. This leads to many possible uses for cocoa butter, such as in cosmetics, food products, and pharmaceutical formulations. It has become a popular ingredient in cosmetics thanks to its emollient properties and mild fragrance.
Cocoa butter supplied by Parchem is extracted directly from cocoa beans. It has a velvety texture and is resistant to oxidation, which helps prolong its shelf life as a raw material and in the formulations in which it is used.
Parchem – fine & specialty chemicals is the premier raw material supplier in the personal care and food chemical markets. We are committed to providing the highest quality raw materials and services to all of our partners.
