Sodium tocopheryl phosphate

Sodium tocopheryl phosphate (CAS 60934-46-5) is a water-soluble phosphate ester form of vitamin E, offering formulators a stable, water-dispersible alternative to oil-soluble tocopherols.

It functions as an antioxidant and skin-conditioning agent across cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and nutritional applications. In skincare and topical formulations, it delivers vitamin E activity in water-based systems.

This includes emulsions, serums, and lotions where conventional tocopherols cannot be incorporated without oil phases. Pharmaceutical manufacturers use it in aqueous drug delivery systems and topical preparations.

These applications require a stabilized, bioavailable vitamin E source. Nutritional supplement producers incorporate it into water-miscible vitamin E products, including fortified beverages and oral dosage forms.

In food and nutraceutical applications, it supports oxidative stability in formulations where lipid-soluble antioxidants are impractical. It is typically supplied as a white to off-white powder.

The material is also available as an aqueous solution at defined concentrations. It is available in cosmetic-grade and pharmaceutical-grade specifications to meet the purity requirements of different regulatory frameworks.

Buyers should confirm grade suitability and documentation compliance with USP or Ph.Eur. standards. This is particularly important when sourcing for pharmaceutical or regulated nutraceutical end uses.
