Glycolic acid

The mechanism of action of

glycolic acid Cas:79-14-1 is to reduce the adhesion of keratinocytes by interfering with the binding force on the cell surface, accelerate the shedding and renewal of epidermal cells, and stimulate collagen synthesis in the dermis, enhancing moisturizing function. The hydroxyl groups in glycolic acid cas:79-14-1 have strong water absorption ability, and the substance can promote the generation of natural moisturizing factors after penetrating into the dermis, thus being able to moisturize. Glycolic acid is an important chemical raw material used in the production of ethylene glycol, menthyl ethanoate, and quinine ethanoate. Glycolic acid Cas: 79-14-1 can also be used to produce tanning agents, hair dyes, leather dyes, fiber dyes, adhesives, metal chelating agents, petroleum emulsifiers, electroplating agents, aluminum plate etchants, crosslinking agents for cellulose fabrics, stainless steel electropolishers, etc. Glycolic acid is also used as a cleaning and disinfecting agent for food processing plants, cattle and sheds, boiler scale inhibitor, copper and other metal surface treatment agents, as well as in the formulation of skincare cosmetics.
