Glyceryl Monostearate (CAS 31566-31-1) is a nonionic surfactant with excellent emulsification, thickening, lubrication, moisture resistance and stabilization properties. It plays a key role as a multifunctional additive in food, cosmetics, medicine and industrial fields, and is an indispensable basic raw material in modern formulation systems.
1. Food industry
Glyceryl Monostearate is widely used in food processing and is a recognized food-grade emulsifier and texture modifier. Its main uses include:
Bakery products: improve dough stability, improve fluffiness and softness
Ice cream and cream: prevent fat and water separation, improve smooth taste
Chocolate and candy: increase gloss, improve taste, and prevent oil seepage
Milk powder and instant beverages: as anti-caking agent and emulsifier, improve brewing and dissolution speed
2. Cosmetics and personal care products
Cream and lotion: as oil-water emulsifier (W/O or O/W), forming a stable emulsion system
Skin care products: improve skin feel and enhance moisturizing effect
Makeup and sunscreen: stabilize active ingredients and improve product uniform distribution
3. Pharmaceutical industry
Used as drug emulsifier, lubricant, controlled release material
Improve drug release rate and skin absorption in soft capsules and creams
Can be used as a structural component in delivery systems such as liposomes and nanoemulsions
4. Industrial applications
Plastic processing: as internal and external lubricants, improve resin processing fluidity and surface finish
Coatings and inks: enhance gloss and improve coating flexibility
Application of PVC antistatic agents, anti-sticking agents and other additives
GRAS certification: Glyceryl Monostearate is listed in the GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) list by the US FDA and is suitable for food, medicine and cosmetic formulations.
Low toxicity: extremely low oral and skin toxicity, non-sensitizing and non-irritating, suitable for daily contact products.
Good biodegradability: natural source, in line with the concept of environmental protection and sustainable development.
Compliance with standards: The product can meet the standards of many countries such as FCC, USP, GB, etc., and is widely used in global food and daily chemical formulation systems.
Precautions: It should be stored in a sealed container and avoid direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid overheating during high-temperature processing to prevent product decomposition.
