Ascorbyl Palmitate is the oil-soluble form of Vitamin C also known as Vitamin C Ester, facilitated by bonding with palmitic acid. Because it is oil soluble and nonacid, it is much more stable than the water-soluble form of Vitamin C, L Ascorbic Acid. For that reason, it can be used freely in formulation without the oxidation that turns your products brown. The oxidation of the vitamin L Ascorbic Acid is the same oxidation that turns copper green, apples brown, and metal to rust. Ascorbyl Palmitate is one of the most stable forms of vitamin C to use in formulation though the most stable form would be the encapsulated form.
