Sodium Hyaluronate

Product Overview

Sodium Hyaluronate is the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan with high water-binding and viscoelastic properties. It is widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, ophthalmology, and biomedical applications. Sodium Hyaluronate is valued for its moisturizing, anti-aging, wound healing, and tissue-repair properties.

It is suitable for topical formulations, injectable solutions, eye drops, and dietary supplements, making it a versatile ingredient in healthcare and personal care industries.
