Pure Plant Extract Alpha Cyclodextrin CAS10016 - 20 - 3 White Powder Food Additives
Cyclodextrin has a hole at the center of its cyclic structure, with an oxygen atom bound by -CH- and glucose glycosides inside, presenting a sulfur-aqueous property. The -OH groups at the 2nd, 3rd, and 6th positions of glucose are hydrophilic and can complex other molecules into inclusion complexes through weak van der Waals forces.

3.Application
1). Pharmaceutical Industry Applications
Cyclodextrins serve critical roles in drug formulation by:
- Enhancing the stability of chemically unstable pharmaceutical compounds;
- Converting deliquescent, viscous, or liquid substances into free-flowing powders;
- Improving solubility and bioavailability of hydrophobic or insoluble drug molecules.
2). Agricultural (Pesticide) Applications
Cyclodextrin inclusion complexes enhance pesticide performance by increasing chemical stability during storage and amplifying insecticidal efficacy through controlled release mechanisms.
3). Food Industry Applications
In food processing, cyclodextrins function to:
- Neutralize or mask undesirable odors;
- Modify textural and structural properties of food products;
- Reduce bitterness in ingredients;
- Act as antioxidants to delay oxidation;
- Preserve and stabilize volatile flavor compounds.
4). Cosmetic and Personal Care Applications
Within daily chemical products, cyclodextrins act as:
- Emulsifying agents and formulation stabilizers in cosmetics;
- Deodorizing agents (e.g., oral care products for halitosis control);
- Preservative extenders with antimicrobial properties.
5). Environmental and Energy Applications
Cyclodextrins demonstrate utility in:
- Oil-contaminated wastewater treatment processes;
- Oil tank cleaning systems, where post-treatment solutions enable fuel oil recovery through recycling.
6). Analytical and Chemical Research Applications
As a versatile chemical reagent, cyclodextrins:
- Amplify fluorescence intensity in protein/amino acid assays;
- Facilitate separation of complex organic mixtures (e.g., long-chain compounds, racemates);
- Serve as specialized adsorbents in chromatographic separation techniques.
Additional Note: Cyclodextrins are recognized as high-value multifunctional additives across these interdisciplinary fields.
