  • Applications

    Hispolon, CAS 173933-40-9, is a natural polyphenol derived from fungi such as Phellinus igniarius and is evaluated for several industrial uses. In cosmetics and personal care, it is studied as an antioxidant active ingredient and functional component in formulations. In pharmaceutical research, it is explored as a lead structure in medicinal chemistry and is examined for various biological activities in laboratory studies. In coatings, inks, and polymer materials, it can act as a natural antioxidant additive and stabilizer, and it may serve as a chemical intermediate for the synthesis of organic materials. In agriculture, it is investigated for antifungal activity and as a lead for agrochemical research.
