Distilled Monoglyceride & Glycerol Monolaurate DMG95 powder
Glyceryl monostearate (GMS) is an effective Emulsifier used in the baking industry available in the form of small beads, flakes, or powders. In addition to emulsification, GMS is a thickening agent and a stabilizer.
In baking, it is used to improve dough quality and stabilize fat/protein emulsions.
CAS No.:31566-31-1 MF:C21H42O4
EINECS No.: 204-664-4 Model Number: E471/Food Grade
The ratio of hydrophilic to lipophilic moieties, called hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) is used in classifying emulsions. HLB values range from 0-20 with lower values indicating dominant lipophilic character while higher values indicate hydrophilic character. GMS has a HLB value of 3.8, making it lipophilic and suitable for uses in w/o emulsions, such as batters and doughs, dairy and other products.
GMS is used in a paste form, i.e. mixed with water and other ingredients to improve gel stability. It is an unsaturated monoglyceride and offers better stability than other unsaturated monoglycerides, such as oleic acid.
It is used in the baking industry to:
