Emulsifier used in food, cosmetics, plastics; improves texture and shelf life.
Versatile fatty acid in waxy solid form (most likely from vegetable sources)
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.

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.
