Sodium Phytate is the sodium salt of Phytic Acid, a saturated cyclic acid. Phytic Acid is found abundantly in plant tissues, especially bran and seeds, where it acts as the principal storage form of phosphorus.
CAS: 14306-25-3
EINECS: 238-242-6

Properties
Sodium phytate is used as an antioxidant and immunostimulant. It is used in natural cosmetics as a powerful sequestrant (of metal ions). Its presence produces an increase in skin hydration, elasticity and luminosity, and it also has sebum-regulating properties. Sodium Phytate is an all-natural chelating agent that can be used as a replacement for disodium and tetrasodium EDTA in cosmetic products. It will help to prevent undesirable metal-catalyzed reactions, thereby stabilizing cosmetic products. It may help with discoloration and rancidity caused by metals present in formulations and works synergistically with other antioxidants.
Specification(Food Grade):
| Items | Specification |
| Characteristic | White Powder |
| Sodium Phytate ( By HPLC ) | Not less than 90% |
| Inorganic Phosphorus (P) | Not more than 0.02% |
| Chloride (Cl) | Not more than 0.02% |
| Sulfate (SO4) | Not more than 0.02% |

| Arsenic (As) | Not more than 0.0005% |
| Heavy metals (Pb) | Not more than 0.003% |
Chelating agents are commonly added to cosmetic formulations to act as a preservative potentiator, Micro organisms need trace metals for cell wall maintenance and survival. Chelants bind with these metals, making them unavailable to bacteria, thereby weakening bacteria and allowing cosmetic preservatives to work more efficiently. EDTA is commonly added to cosmetic formulations for this purpose and Sodium Phytate should have a similar function.
In addition to its chelating properties, Sodium Phytate has other skin benefits:
| 1 | Moisturizes skin |
| 2 | Improves skin elasticity |
| 3 | Normalizes oily skin |
| 4 | May help reduce pore size |
| 5 | Helps lighten skin |
| 6 | May help improve the appearance of cellulite |
| 7 | Sodium Phytate is fully neutralized and has a pH of ~12 |
