Dipotassium azelate

Dipotassium azelate (CAS 52457-54-2 ), the dipotassium salt of azelaic acid, is a water-soluble organic salt used in personal care, pharmaceutical, and specialty formulations.

It functions as a pH buffer and humectant, offering formulators a more soluble, milder-handling alternative to free azelaic acid. In cosmetic formulations, it is incorporated into serums and creams.

It is used in toners where controlled pH and skin-conditioning properties are required without the solubility limitations of azelaic acid. Pharmaceutical topical preparations use it as a buffering agent.

This salt helps to stabilize active ingredient systems in aqueous bases. In personal care products targeting uneven skin tone or sebum regulation, it delivers the functional profile of the azelate ion.

It is provided in a readily dispersible salt form for various manufacturing needs. Food and nutrition applications leverage its buffering capacity in specialty formulations requiring potassium-based pH adjustment.

Dipotassium azelate is typically supplied as a white to off-white powder or crystalline solid. It is available in technical and cosmetic-grade specifications, with purity levels commonly at 98% or above.

Packaging ranges from small laboratory quantities to bulk industrial supply depending on supplier and application requirements. This ensures flexibility for both research and large-scale production.
