Sodium Copper Chlorophyllin Powder is a semi-synthetic, water-soluble derivative of chlorophyll, where the central magnesium ion is replaced by copper, and the phytol tail is removed to form sodium salts. This stable, dark green to blackish-green powder is widely used as a natural colorant (E141(ii)) in food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and textiles, while also exhibiting antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification properties.

Superior Stability as a Natural Green Pigment
Sodium Copper Chlorophyllin (SCC) is a water-soluble derivative of chlorophyll, with copper ions replacing magnesium to enhance photostability and thermal resistance:
Thermal Stability: Retains color at 121°C (autoclaving) for 30 minutes, outperforming natural chlorophyll (degrades at >80°C).
pH Tolerance: Stable across pH 4–9, maintaining green hue in acidic beverages (e.g., soft drinks) and alkaline foods (e.g., noodles), whereas natural chlorophyll fades at pH <6.
Lightfastness: Resists photodegradation under UV exposure (half-life >200 hours vs. 48 hours for chlorophyll), ideal for transparent packaging.
Diverse Industrial Applications
Food Industry:Certified as a natural colorant in EU (E141ii), US (GRAS), and China (GB 1886.26).
Used in confectionery (green candies), dairy (mint ice cream), and beverages (matcha-flavored drinks), with dosage 0.01–0.05 g/kg (10x lower than synthetic green dyes like FD&C Green No.3).
Pharmaceuticals:OTC products for bad breath (e.g., Chlorophyllin-Copper Complex tablets) and ulcerative colitis (reduces inflammation by 30% in clinical trials).
Cosmetics:Natural green pigment in eyeshadows, hair dyes, and sunscreens; additionally soothes irritated skin (clinical test shows 40% reduction in redness after 7 days).
Animal Feed:Improves egg yolk color (Yokohama color score +2) in poultry, enhances growth performance in fish (FCR reduced by 15%).
Stringent Safety Profile and Regulatory Compliance
Toxicological Data:LD50 > 10,000 mg/kg (oral, rats), classified as "non-toxic"; no genotoxicity (Ames test negative).
No reported allergies or skin irritation (patch test pass rate 99.7%).
Sustainable Sourcing and Green Production
Renewable Raw Materials:Extracted from plant by-products (alfalfa hay, mulberry leaves, silkworm feces), with 1 ton of alfalfa yielding 2–3 kg of SCC (95% purity).Closed-loop extraction using water-ethanol mixtures (solvent recovery rate >95%), reducing waste by 80% vs. petroleum-based solvents.
Carbon Footprint:Production emits 1.2 kg CO2/kg SCC, 60% lower than synthetic green dyes (e.g., FD&C Green No.3: 3.1 kg CO2/kg).
Organic Certification:Available in USDA Organic and EU Organic grades, sourced from non-GMO crops without synthetic pesticides.
Cost-Effectiveness vs. Synthetic Alternatives
Price Advantage:At $15–25/kg (bulk), SCC costs 40–60% less than premium natural pigments like spirulina extract ($40–60/kg) and 30% less than synthetic dyes when considering dosage efficiency.
Formulation Efficiency:Requires lower concentrations (0.01–0.05%) to achieve desired color intensity, compared to 0.05–0.1% for synthetic dyes, reducing overall usage costs.
Extended Shelf Life:Products formulated with SCC have a shelf life of 12–18 months (vs. 6–9 months for natural chlorophyll), minimizing rework and waste.
