Tocopheryl Acetate, also known as tocopherol acetate or vitamin E acetate, is a synthetic derivative of vitamin E widely used in cosmetic products and dietary supplements due to its enhanced stability.
Alpha-tocopheryl acetate (ATA) is the most stable form of vitamin E used in humans and is commonly included in products designed to provide antioxidant protection against free radicals, including those generated by UV radiation.
CAS No.: 7695-91-2
Synonyms: alpha-Tocopherol acetate, Tocopherol acetate, Vitamin Ealpha acetate,

Tocopheryl Acetate does not generally clog pores; however, overapplication or use in high concentrations may contribute to pore clogging in acne-prone skin
Tocopheryl Acetate is synthesized by esterifying tocopherol (a form of vitamin E) with acetic acid, resulting in a more stable, synthetic form of vitamin E commonly used in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical formulations.
