Oil Soluble Copper Chlorophyll 15% Liquid | E141(i)

What is Oil Soluble Copper Chlorophyll 15% Liquid?

Oil Soluble Copper Chlorophyll 15% Liquid is a standardized, fat-soluble natural food colorant designated under regulatory code E141(i)다. Obtained by replacing the central magnesium atom with copper, this lipid-compatible compound is derived from plant sources and standardized to a minimum concentration of 15% total chlorophyll copper complex using a compliant vegetable lipid matrix carrier.

The molecular structure of E141(i) ensures superior resistance to thermal processing degradation and light exposure compared to native chlorophylls. Its low-viscosity liquid form exhibits excellent fluid dynamics under ambient conditions, allowing for homogeneous blending within industrial oil phases without precipitating sediment or causing micro-particle aggregation.

Distributed globally by Green Spring 기술, this raw material conforms strictly to international safety criteria for food additives, including EU and US FDA purity requirements. The ingredient is manufactured under validated protocols to guarantee compliance with maximum heavy metal thresholds, residual solvent limits, and free ionic copper parameters.

Quality & Compliance

• Global Facility Audits: Manufactured under audited systems at Green Spring Technology holding BRCGS (Grade A), IFS (Higher Level), ISO 9001, and ISO 22000 certifications.

• 
  

• Regulatory Alignment: Conforms to identity and purity criteria under European Union Regulation (EU) No 231/2012 for E141(i) and US FDA specifications.

• Oxidation Mitigation: Free ionic copper is strictly restricted to ≤ 0.025% to prevent downstream oil-phase lipid oxidation.

• Dietary Certifications: Validated under independent global supervision for Halal and Kosher manufacturing compliance.

• 
  

• Contaminant Exclusion: Heavy metals adhere to Pb ≤ 1.0 ppm, As ≤ 1.0 ppm, Cd ≤ 0.5 ppm, Hg ≤ 0.1 ppm (USP <2232>), with solvents verified via ICH Q3C.

• Clean-Label Status: Confirmed as 100% Non-GMO, Non-Irradiated, Allergen-Free, and BSE/TSE Free raw material.

Key Advantages

• Superior Thermal and Photolytic Stability: The replaced copper-porphyrin ring structure in E141(i) provides exceptional structural integrity under industrial processing up to 120°C and prolonged UV exposure, preventing the color fading or browning typically observed in native chlorophylls.

• Advanced Oil-Phase Dissolution Kinetics: Formulated within a low-viscosity vegetable lipid matrix, the ingredient exhibits immediate miscibility in lipophilic carriers, ensuring rapid, homogeneous dispersion during standard mixing protocols without requiring high-shear emulsification.

• Automated Pipeline and Dosing Compatibility: The non-aggregating liquid status maintains consistent viscosity parameters across varying ambient processing temperatures, preventing micro-particle crystallization, pipeline hang-up, and wall-deposition in high-speed, continuous automated liquid filling lines.

• Zero Stratification and Clogging Risk: The formulation leverages a fully integrated lipid carrier system that prevents phase separation and concentration gradient layering during long-term storage, completely eliminating the precipitation of plant waxes and insoluble sediment.

Applications

• Dietary Supplement Softgel Content Matrices: The lipophilic nature of E141(i) allows for direct integration into oil-filled softgel formulations without risking suspension phase separation. Its standardized 15% concentration guarantees uniform color distribution across high-speed rotary die encapsulation lines, eliminating matrix stratification and maintaining clean-die execution during long-term manufacturing runs.

• Functional Lipids and Specialized Bakery Fats: The ingredient demonstrates exceptional heat tolerance up to 120°C, making it highly compatible with functional margarines, shortenings, and compound coatings. It integrates seamlessly into fat phases during industrial blending, delivering a stable, vibrant green hue that resists fading or browning through commercial baking heat cycles and extrusion processes.

• Oil-Phase Nutricosmetics and Skincare Topicals: Operating as an oil-soluble botanical colorant, the extract dissolves completely into premium lipid bases, oil-in-water emulsions, and anhydrous balms. Its strict free ionic copper limit of ≤ 0.025% prevents the catalytic oxidation of sensitive fatty acids, protecting the long-term scent, texture, and physical shelf-life stability of the finished cosmetic formulation.

• Confectionery Lipid Mass Coloring: The low-viscosity liquid carrier allows for rapid, non-aggregating incorporation into cocoa butter, compound chocolates, and oily fillings. Formulators can achieve precise shade control without introducing moisture, successfully avoiding the sugar bloom or rheological thickening that typically interferes with continuous confectionery deposit molding equipment.

Technical FAQ

Q1: How does the viscosity profile of Oil Soluble Copper Chlorophyll 15% Liquid respond during continuous automated piping dosing, and is there a risk of wall-deposition or batch stratification in unheated holding tanks?

A1: The lipid-based oil soluble copper chlorophyll liquid exhibits Newtonian behavior between 15°C to 25°C, maintaining a stable kinematic viscosity profile that eliminates pipeline clogging. This refined E141(i) compliant copper chlorophyll avoids localized concentration gradient layering or phase separation even when kept in stagnant blending vats for up to 72 hours, guaranteeing consistent color absorbance intensity without continuous mechanical agitation.

Q2: Does the addition of this oil-soluble chlorophyllin copper complex at industrial dosage thresholds interfere with the rheological stability or cause sugar bloom in high-speed confectionery molding or softgel encapsulation lines?

A2: No. Formulated strictly within an anhydrous carrier, oil-soluble chlorophyllin copper complex 15% contains zero free moisture (Loss on Drying ≤ 1.0%), preventing rheological disruption. In high-speed rotary die softgel encapsulation lines, the fluid status integrates into gelatin content matrices seamlessly without precipitating active color particles, successfully avoiding the die-sticking issues and moisture-induced sugar bloom that halt automated machinery.

Q3: What analytical protocols are established to verify that the copper complex of chlorophylls liquid maintains international purity compliance regarding free metallic residues under thermal stress up to 120°C?

A3: Every production lot of E141(i) copper complex of chlorophylls liquid undergoes mandatory ICP-MS testing to verify that free ionic copper parameters remain strictly ≤ 0.025%. The copper atom is firmly locked into the center of the porphyrin ring via coordinate covalent bonds, ensuring the pigment remains chemically inert under thermal treatments up to 120°C, preventing heavy metal release or catalytic oxidation of downstream fatty acids.
