Vitamin B5 Panthenyl Triacetate
What is Vitamin B5 Panthenyl Triacetate?
Panthenol triacetate (CAS 94089-18-6), also marketed as Lipoderma DPT and Ritapan TA, is the triacetylated ester form of panthenol used in personal care and pharmaceutical formulations.
Where is Vitamin B5 Panthenyl Triacetate used?
- Skin care: moisturizing active in oil-based serums, balms, and anhydrous creams
- Hair care: humectancy in conditioning oils, leave-on treatments, and silicone blends
- Pharmaceutical topicals: skin barrier support in ointments and lipophilic wound-care bases
- Color cosmetics and sun care: oil-phase compatibility
- Its improved lipophilicity enables formulators to deliver provitamin B5 activity through anhydrous and emollient-rich bases.
Good to know: Unlike standard panthenol, which has solubility limitations in oil-based systems, this ester derivative offers improved lipophilicity.
