INCI name: Glycerol Monosatearate
MONSA®GMS-90 is a polyol-type nonionic surfactant with a lipophilic long-chain alkyl group and two hydrophilic hydroxyl groups, so it has good surface activities such as emulsification, foaming, dispersion, defoaming, and anti-starch aging.
Glycerol Monosatearate represents a refined variant, originating from the esterification process of stearic acid with glycerol. It boasts exceptional properties for emulsification, dispersion, and stability, making it a popular choice across the food and various industrial sectors. The fine powder form of the product presents a waxy, granular texture that contributes to the product's viscosity, stability, and emulsification. It is utilized in food to refine taste and texture, functioning as a humectant to maintain freshness by preserving moisture and preventing decay. Moreover, it excels as an emulsifier, adept at integrating ingredients that typically do not mix well, such as oil and water, to create a uniform blend.
