  • Applications

    Ammonium Glycyrrhizate (CAS 53956-04-0) is used across several industries, notably in cosmetics and personal care as a skin-conditioning, soothing, and anti-irritant additive in creams, lotions, cleansers, and after-sun products; in topical pharmaceutical formulations it serves as an excipient with soothing properties and can help stabilize certain formulations; in industrial manufacturing it can function as an intermediate in the synthesis of glycyrrhizin derivatives and other licorice-based specialty chemicals; in cleaning products it may contribute to mild skin feel and reduced irritation from detergents. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
