Fatty Acid Glyceride : GSE471

Fatty Acid Glyceride (GSE471), also known as glyceryl stearate, is a multifunctional emulsifier extensively used in food, cosmetic, and plastic industries. In the food sector, it helps to emulsify, improve the texture, and extend the shelf life of processed products. Commercially sold as Radiamuls MG 2143 K, it is palm-derived from mono- and diglycerides and appears in powder, flake, or bead forms. It is an effective softness enhancer and anti-sticking agent, particularly in biowaxes and polymers, where it also facilitates better mold release. GSE471 is available in a wide range of packaging options and has a melting point between 55-61°C.

Key Features

• Widely used as an emulsifier in food, cosmetics, and plastics
• Improves texture and extends shelf life in food products
• Reduces stickiness and enhances mold release in polymer processing
• Derived from palm-based mono- and diglycerides
• Available in powder, flake, and bead forms for different applications

Oleic Acid

Oleic Acid is a versatile yellow to red oily liquid with a characteristic lardlike odor. Known for its ability to darken upon exposure to air, it is insoluble in water but readily soluble in alcohol, ether, and most organic solvents. This nontoxic and combustible compound serves as an essential ingredient in soap production, providing a slippery feel, stingy lather, and gentle conditioning properties, making it suitable for skin. Oleic Acid is also widely used as a soldering flux for joining lead components and as an emulsifier in industrial applications. With a typical analysis showing a high content of oleic acid (67%-77%), alongside linoleic acid (5%-15%), it is a high-quality fatty acid suitable for specialized purposes.

Key Features

• Yellow to red oily liquid with lardlike odor.
• Darkens on exposure to air, soluble in alcohol and ether.
• Nontoxic and combustible, versatile in industrial use.
• Enhances soap lather, conditioning, and skin-friendliness.
• Effective soldering flux and emulsifier for multiple applications.

Stearic Acid Flakes (Vegetable Source)

Stearic Acid Flakes, derived most likely from vegetable sources, is a saturated fatty acid known for its versatility in various industrial and cosmetic applications. With an 18-carbon chain, stearic acid is a soft, waxy solid commonly used in the production of soaps, candles, cosmetics, and lubricants. The IUPAC name for stearic acid is octadecanoic acid, and its chemical formula is CH₃(CH₂)₁₆CO₂H. It is valued in cosmetic formulations for its thickening properties, ability to stabilize formulations, and enhance the texture and shelf-life of products. Stearic acid also acts as an emulsifier, helping to blend oil and water-based ingredients.

With a melting point of 156.7°F (69.3°C) and a boiling point of 681.8°F (361°C), stearic acid flakes offer high stability, making them suitable for use in a wide range of temperatures. Its molar mass is 284.48 g/mol, and it has a density of 941 kg/m³, making it a reliable choice for consistent performance in manufacturing processes.
