D-Delta Mixed Tocopherols

D-Delta Mixed Tocopherols – Natural Vitamin E Ingredient for Food, Supplement & Personal Care Formulations

D-Delta Mixed Tocopherols is a naturally derived vitamin E ingredient produced by Shaanxi Herbcosher Phychemistry Co., Ltd. through vegetable oil extraction, concentration, and purification. Featuring d-δ-tocopherol as the primary active component, it is available in purity grades of 70% and 90%, verified by HPLC testing. The product appears as a light yellow to brownish-yellow transparent oily liquid, fully soluble in oils and fat-based systems. Backed by ISO9001, GMP, FDA, Kosher, and Halal certifications, with an MOQ of just 1 kg and sufficient stock on hand, it supports flexible B2B procurement at any scale.

What Are D-Delta Mixed Tocopherols?

The products are a natural occurring vitamin E complex with the major isomer being delta-tocopherol along with other naturally occurring forms of tocopherol including alpha, beta and gamma variations.

These tocopherols are derived from edible vegetable oils and are concentrated and purified to give standardised purity standards. The natural d-form is more readily recognised by the liver transport proteins in the body, which actively choose and deliver it to the tissues of the body, unlike synthetic vitamin E.

This means the natural form is a popular ingredient choice for formulators working on clean-label, natural or organic-certified products.

Product Characteristics

At room temperature, the product is a transparent oily liquid with light yellow to brownish-yellow colour. Its physical form is directly compatible with oil-based, lipid-rich and fat-soluble formulation techniques.

It is water insoluble but fully soluble in oils and organic solvents, and is useful for such applications as edible oil stabilisation, soft gel encapsulation, and lipid-based personal care formulations.

There are two purity grades, 70% and 90%, that allow formulators to choose the right concentration according to application needs and cost targets.

Technical Specifications

Quality Control & Testing

Every batch is evaluated by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to confirm δ-tocopherol concentration, assuring accurate quantification and lot-to-lot purity.

Herbcosher operation is under ISO9001 and GMP quality management system, encompassing the whole production chain from raw material input to completed product release. The FDA registration gives assistance for entry into the US market, while the Kosher and Halal certifications give support for appropriateness for a broad array of consumer markets worldwide.

For buyers requiring additional compliance documentation for regulatory submissions or product labelling purposes, we have third party testing reports accessible by request.

Applications

Food & Edible Oil Industry

D-Delta Mixed Tocopherols are natural antioxidants that assist delay oxidation of oils, fats and oil-rich food products in food applications. They can extend the shelf-life and maintain the flavour without synthetic additions.

Functional Foods & Dietary Supplements

This ingredient is a natural source of vitamin E tocopherols and is suitable for use in soft gel capsules, oil-based supplements and functional food products for antioxidant support and general wellness formulations.

Personal Care & Cosmetics

The oil-solubility of δ-tocopherol makes it compatible with skin creams, hair care oils, serums and other lipid phase cosmetic systems where it provides antioxidant stabilisation to the formulation itself while delivering skin-conditioning advantages.

Formulation Considerations

This chemical is oil soluble and not normally water dispersible hence it is best added to the lipid phase of a formulation. In aqueous environments, you would normally need to use either emulsification or encapsulation techniques.

The 70% grade is suitable for most typical food and supplement uses, and the 90% grade is selected for applications where a higher concentration of δ-tocopherol is required in a smaller dose volume.

If you need a different purity, blend or delivery type, Herbcosher also provides OEM and ODM services. Turnaround for custom orders is approximately 15 working days.

Packaging & Supply

Packaging options scale from small research and development quantities up to full industrial bulk orders, making this product accessible whether you are sampling for a new formulation or placing a large production order.

Herbcosher maintains a warehouse of 4,000–5,000 m² with sufficient stock available for rapid dispatch. Orders can be shipped by air, sea, or rail depending on your location and timeline requirements.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between the products and standard mixed tocopherols?

A: The products had delta tocopherol as the predominant active component, whereas the regular mixed tocopherols had alpha or gamma tocopherol as the primary fraction. This renders the delta-dominant variant appropriate for formulations where focused δ-tocopherol activity is desired.

Q: What purity grades can you supply?

A: Two levels of purity are available, 70% and 90%. The proper grade will be determined by your application concentration requirements and formula design.

Q: Is this product acceptable for consumption?

A: Yes. Suitable for food, nutritional supplement and functional food applications Certified by FDA, Kosher and Halal to support use in numerous regulated markets

Q: How do you test the purity?

A: We evaluate purity using HPLC, which allows us to identify and quantify the tocopherol isomers present in each batch accurately.

Q: What is the minimum order quantity?

A: The MOQ is 1 kg, which is workable for formulation in both development and production stages.

Q: Can custom formulations or private label products be arranged?

A: Yes. Herbcosher provides complete OEM and ODM services, including bespoke purity, mixing and packaging. Delivery is usually within 15 working days from purchase confirmation.
