Product Overview |
DL-Mandelic acid (CAS No. 90-64-2) is a racemic organic carboxylic acid widely used as a chemical intermediate in the production of pharmaceutical raw materials and cosmetic ingredients. Our DL‑Mandelic acid adopting mature mandelonitrile hydrolysis route with biocatalysis chiral resolution technology, delivering product purity ≥99.0% and strictly controlled impurities.Compared with traditional chemical separation, the enzymatic catalytic route has milder reaction conditions, generates fewer waste products, and is more conducive to environmental protection audits for customers in Europe and America.
It is particularly suitable for the formulation of skin-care exfoliating products and synthetic pharmaceutical intermediates.
DL-Mandelic acid can also be used in fine chemical synthesis and water-treatment formulation systems, where its molecular structure can support good water solubility, stable chemical activity, and formulation flexibility. DL-Mandelic-acid-based systems are also used in selected daily-care additives and biochemical reagent applications.

Applications of DL-Mandelic acid
DL-Mandelic acid (CAS 90-64-2) is a racemic aromatic carboxylic acid widely used as a building block in pharmaceutical intermediate and cosmetic formulation. Its molecular structure makes it particularly suitable for skin exfoliation cosmetic raw materials, fine chemical synthesis, and selected biochemical reagent systems.
Cosmetic & Personal-Care Formulations
DL-Mandelic acid is commonly used in the production of skin-care exfoliating formulations. Its molecular structure can support moderate peeling performance, good water solubility, and formulation flexibility, making it suitable for personal-care cosmetic applications.
Typical application areas include:
Skin exfoliation skincare products
Facial toner and essence formulations
Gentle acne-care cosmetic additives
Daily-care surface-active raw materials
Pharmaceutical & Fine-Chemical Intermediates
DL-Mandelic acid can be used in synthesis routes designed for pharmaceutical intermediates, antibacterial compound synthesis, and fine-chemical manufacturing. DL-Mandelic-acid-based synthesis routes may provide a useful balance of reaction activity and product purity, including resistance to microbial activity, good crystallization property, and chemical stability.
It is particularly suitable for formulations where high chemical purity, good solvent compatibility, and stable synthetic intermediate performance are required.
Biochemical Reagents & Water-Treatment Applications
DL-Mandelic acid is also used as an organic acid component in biochemical laboratory reagents. These reagent systems are used in analytical testing and applications requiring stable organic-acid performance.
Typical applications include:
Biochemical analytical reagents
Organic synthesis intermediates
Metal-ion complexing agents
Partial water-treatment auxiliary additives
DL-Mandelic-acid-based systems can be used in cosmetic, pharmaceutical intermediate and biochemical reagent applications, particularly where mild exfoliating property and long-term chemical stability are important performance considerations.
The final performance of DL-Mandelic acid in any cosmetic or synthesis system depends on the complete formulation, raw-material ratio, processing conditions, pH-adjusting system, and intended end use. Customers should evaluate product suitability according to their specific formulation and application requirements.
