Description

Minoxidil is a piperidinopyrimidine derivative (2,4-diamino-6-piperidinopyrimidine 3-oxide) widely used as the active ingredient in topical hair growth formulations. As a potassium channel opener and peripheral vasodilator, it prolongs the anagen (growth) phase of the hair follicle cycle, improves follicular microcirculation, and stimulates the proliferation of dermal papilla cells. This high-purity minoxidil powder (>= 99%) is a white to off-white crystalline powder with well-defined physicochemical properties, suitable as a raw material for cosmetic and personal-care formulations such as topical solutions, foams, and serums for scalp care, as well as for laboratory research in hair follicle biology and dermal cell studies. The compound is slightly soluble in water and readily soluble in ethanol, methanol, and DMSO, enabling flexible formulation design across hydroalcoholic solvent systems.
