Catechin 98%

The raw material for catechins 98% is fresh green bud tea. Catechins 98% are the most core and highly active functional component in green tea polyphenols. Catechins are refined through various modern processes such as low-temperature water extraction, membrane separation, concentration, and aseptic spray drying. No solvent residues are added, no artificial colors are used, and no preservatives are present throughout the process. The entire process is controlled at low temperatures, which not only enhances the purity of the effective components of catechins but also ensures the stability of catechin content. Catechins are not a single component but a composite system of various highly active green tea polyphenols. The core active components include EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), ECG (epicatechin gallate), EGC (epigallocatechin), and EC (epicatechin), among which EGCG is the core active component with the best stability. Catechins are uniform and fine white powder, with loose powder without lumps and good fluidity. They have a natural green tea aroma and a light and pure smell. They have good water solubility and can quickly dissolve in warm water or cold water. After dissolution, the solution is clear, transparent, without sediment or suspended matter, and will not exhibit stratification or turbidity. They can also be compatible with organic solvents such as ethanol, and are suitable for various production systems such as water-based formulas and alcohol-soluble formulas.

The core function of catechins is to act as an antioxidant. It can quickly capture and neutralize free radicals within the system, and its antioxidant capacity far exceeds that of ordinary vitamin-based raw materials. It can also effectively delay the oxidation of oils, the deterioration of components, and the yellowing and deepening of color. It can provide long-term protection for product activity and extend the stability period of materials.

Catechins have a very good inhibitory effect on common bacteria. Unlike chemical preservatives, the catechins derived from natural plants have no residues or side effects, and will not affect the flavor or texture of the product. They can replace some chemical preservatives and antibacterial raw materials.

Catechins can effectively soothe redness, dryness, sensitivity and discomfort of the skin, alleviate skin irritation caused by external environment, and also reduce mild inflammatory reactions of the skin.

Catechins have excellent inhibitory effects and can reduce problems such as dullness, yellowing and sagging of the skin caused by glycation reactions. They can also protect the body's cells from excessive oxidative glycation damage. They have both internal regulation and external application anti-aging values.

High-purity catechins can assist in regulating body metabolism, reducing lipid accumulation, and helping to maintain the body's functional balance. They are gentle and do not cause any burden.

The functional food and beverage industry is the most common application area for catechins, with current products on the market including sugar-free tea drinks, functional beverages, sparkling water, meal replacement foods, baked goods, and nut snacks.

In the field of dietary supplements, catechins are widely used in various forms such as tablets, capsules, powders, and oral liquids.

Catechin is a popular ingredient in the natural skincare category, widely used in serums, toners, lotions, creams, masks, and personal care products.
