Zinc Ricinoleate Powder

Zinc Ricinoleate is a highly effective deodorizing ingredient derived from ricinoleic acid obtained from castor oil. Unlike traditional deodorants that mask odor, Zinc Ricinoleate works by trapping and absorbing odor-causing molecules, helping maintain long-lasting freshness without interfering with the skin's natural perspiration process.

Widely used in deodorants, body care products, foot care formulations, and odor-control cosmetics.
