Panthenol is a derivative of vitamin B5, also known as vitamin precursor B5. Vitamin B5 is called pantothenic acid. Its properties are unstable and are easily affected by temperature and formulation, resulting in a decrease in its bioavailability. Therefore, its precursor, panthenol, is often used in cosmetic formulations. Compared with vitamin B5/pantothenic acid, panthenol has more stable properties and can effectively penetrate the stratum corneum, quickly converting into vitamin B5. Vitamin B5 is an essential part of the body's metabolism and is an important raw material for the synthesis of coenzyme A. Pantanol has been widely used in the pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic industries.
