Monostearateglycermonostearate ( GMS) is a
glyceride. It is a milky white, waxy solid with a nice fat smell. It is
dispersed in hot water and can dissolve in hot alcohol, oil and hydrocarbons.
From stearic acid and glycerol esterification, cooling to the finished product.
1. GMS is a food additive used as
thickening agent, emulsifier, anti-blocking agent and preservative; emulsifier
for oil, wax and solvent; protective coating of hygroscopic powder: curing
agent and controlled release agent in drugs; and resin lubricant. It is also
used in cosmetics and hair care products. As an emulsifier, the molecular
distillation monoglycerase product can reach 95% purity, which is very suitable
for use as an emulsifier in ointment production, safe and efficient.
2. GMS is mainly used for baking
preparation to add "connotation" to the food. It is somehow
responsible for giving the ice cream and whipped cream a smooth texture. It is
sometimes used as a preservative in the bread. Improve the cutting structure,
delay hardening, extend the shelf life, reduce or inhibit the formation of foam
in the production process of various foods, increase the volume, improve the
mass structure, and extend the shelf life.
3. GMS can be used as an additive in
plastics, where GMS is used as an antistatic agent and anti-fog agent. This is
very common in food packaging. With good lubrication effect, especially between
the metal surface of the forming machinery and the resin, it can improve the
production of the extrusion molding product and enhance the surface luster of
the molding product
