Study of thermal behavior of phytic acid

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 49 (2), 2013
Phytic acid is a natural compound widely used as depigmenting agent in galenic cosmetic emulsions. However, we have observed experimentally that phytic acid, when heated to 150 ºC for around one hour, shows evidence of thermal decomposition. Few studies investigating this substance alone with regard to ...
