Mimosa CO2 Extract 5 g

Sourcing and specification details

Acacia farnesiana flowers from Ukraine undergo supercritical CO2 extraction to yield an oily mass containing essential oil, tannins, phytosterols and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The 5 g pack meets requirements of cosmetic laboratories and supplement manufacturers seeking consistent botanical raw material. CO2 Extracts section lists similar grades for scale-up projects. Each batch is processed under controlled conditions that preserve the native aroma profile without residual solvents. International buyers appreciate the traceability of Ukrainian origin and the precise fatty acid composition documented in accompanying specifications.

Functional value in formulations

The fat-soluble extract integrates into oil phases at 0.01-2 percent. It refreshes and tones skin, supports barrier function and pairs well with carrier oils in serums and body balms. Cosmetic labs value its neutral colour and mild plant aroma. When incorporated into anhydrous balms the ingredient contributes to a smooth texture that melts evenly on application. Stability tests show no phase separation even after repeated temperature cycling between 5 and 40 degrees Celsius.

Use by supplement and food manufacturers

International producers purchase the extract as a botanical ingredient for dietary supplements and functional foods. It appears in drink powders, confectionery fillings and dry blends. Mimosa CO2 Extract 1 kg supports larger production runs. Food technologists often combine it with other botanical powders to create complex flavour profiles in herbal infusions and dessert coatings. Bulk orders allow manufacturers to maintain consistent supply chains across multiple product lines.

Processing parameters and solubility

Add the extract below 40 °C after emulsion formation. Full solubility in lipids eliminates the need for extra solubilisers in anhydrous systems such as massage bars. In emulsion systems the ingredient disperses uniformly without altering viscosity or requiring additional homogenisation steps. This simplifies scale-up from laboratory to pilot plant production. Botanical Extracts catalogue offers multiple pack sizes to match both pilot and full-scale needs.

Example B2B serum formulation

Combine 78 g squalane, 20 g jojoba oil and 2 g of this extract. Heat to 35 °C and stir until uniform. Package in amber glass. The finished serum provides light toning for mature skin. Formulators may adjust the carrier ratio to achieve different textures ranging from lightweight fluids to richer night treatments. Compatibility with common preservatives has been confirmed in internal stability protocols.

Storage and shelf life

Keep sealed in a cool, dark place. Shelf life extends to December 2028. Once opened, consume within twelve months. Proper storage prevents oxidation of sensitive polyunsaturated fractions and maintains the original sensory characteristics throughout the declared period. Regular inventory rotation ensures optimal freshness for end-use applications.
