citrus grandis peel powder

Citrus grandis peel powder is a dried, finely ground powder obtained from the peel of Citrus grandis, a species commonly known as grapefruit or pomelo. It belongs to the Rutaceae family and is recognized for its subtle citrus sensory profile, especially in odor and flavor. The powder exhibits a light citrus scent associated with grapefruit peel and is primarily utilized in cosmetic and fragrance applications. Also known by synonyms such as citrus maxima peel powder and pomelo peel powder, this ingredient is derived from the fruit's outer rind after drying and milling. Further chemical and safety information for this substance can be accessed via the PubChem database. This raw material is valued for its natural origin and functional properties in perfumery and absorbent formulations.

Citrus grandis peel powder originates biologically from the pomelo fruit, a large citrus species native to Southeast Asia. The powder is created by drying and grinding the fruit's peel, capturing its characteristic citrus notes. It finds applications predominantly within cosmetic and fragrance industries, where it functions as an absorbent and perfuming agent. These roles benefit from the powder's natural citrus aroma and physical properties. Its use aligns with IFRA (Global) standards for fragrance ingredients, ensuring formulated products meet industry safety practices. Overall, the powder serves as a natural additive to impart scent and absorbent characteristics to cosmetic and perfumery products.

As a dried herbal powder, citrus grandis peel powder exhibits physical properties that facilitate its use as an absorbent in cosmetic formulations. Its particle size and morphology improve texture and moisture regulation in various product types. Chemically, it carries a low-intensity citrus odor characteristic of grapefruit peel, which influences sensory perception in fragrances and flavors. The powder's composition includes natural citrus compounds that contribute to its aromatic qualities but lack volatile concentrations found in essential oils. Its stability and handling ease support incorporation into formulations without significant degradation or reactivity under normal conditions.
