ZINC RICINOLEATE

Zinc Ricinoleate is made by pressing the seeds of the Ricinus communis (Castor bean) plant to extract the oil, which after that is hydrolyzed to create ricinoleic acid. Ricinoleic acid is then combined with zinc oxide to create Zinc Ricinoleate.

Zinc Ricinoleate is a really powerful natural odor absorber and for this reason it’s a popular ingredient in personal care and cleaning products. Zinc Ricinoleate does not prevent perspiration but has antibacterial properties, which makes it a perfect ingredient in our deodorant.
