Polyglycerol -10 Palmitate (CAS: 500128-62-1) is a high - quality product available at the best price. It is an ester formed from polyglycerol and palmitic acid. This product usually appears as a white to off - white waxy solid. With a high degree of purity, it meets the strict quality standards required for various industries.
The molecular weight of polyglycerol -10 palmitate is determined by the specific structure of polyglycerol and the attached palmitate groups. It has good solubility in some organic solvents such as ethanol and can be dispersed in water to form an emulsion under appropriate conditions. The HLB (Hydrophilic - Lipophilic Balance) value of this product is in a suitable range, which makes it an excellent emulsifier and surfactant.
In the food industry, polyglycerol -10 palmitate is widely used as an emulsifier, stabilizer, and dispersant. It can improve the texture and stability of food products, prevent oil - water separation in emulsified foods such as mayonnaise and salad dressings, and extend the shelf - life of bakery products by preventing staling. In addition, it can also be used in the production of chocolate to improve its flow properties and prevent fat blooming.
In the cosmetic industry, it serves as an emulsifier and moisturizer. It helps to form stable oil - in - water or water - in - oil emulsions in creams, lotions, and serums, improving the spreadability and feel of the products on the skin. Moreover, it has a certain moisturizing effect, which can keep the skin hydrated and smooth.
In the pharmaceutical industry, polyglycerol -10 palmitate can be used as an excipient in the formulation of drugs. It can improve the solubility and bioavailability of some poorly soluble drugs, and also play a role in stabilizing drug formulations.
When using polyglycerol -10 palmitate in food production, first, it should be added to the oil or water phase according to the specific recipe requirements. For example, in the production of mayonnaise, it can be added to the oil phase and then emulsified with the water phase under high - speed stirring. The dosage usually ranges from 0.1% - 5% depending on the specific product and process requirements.
In the cosmetic industry, it can be added during the emulsification process of creams and lotions. It is recommended to pre - dissolve it in the appropriate solvent or phase before adding it to the main formulation to ensure uniform dispersion. The usage amount is generally between 1% - 10%.
In the pharmaceutical field, when formulating drugs, it should be mixed with other excipients and active ingredients according to the prescription. The specific usage method and dosage need to be determined through pre - formulation studies and in - vitro and in - vivo tests.
Case 1: Bakery Products
A bakery company was facing the problem of rapid staling of its bread products, which led to a short shelf - life and reduced consumer acceptance. By adding 0.5% polyglycerol -10 palmitate to the bread formulation, the company found that the bread remained soft and fresh for a longer time. The texture of the bread was also improved, with a finer crumb structure. This not only increased the shelf - life of the products but also enhanced the overall quality and consumer satisfaction.
Case 2: Cosmetic Creams
A cosmetic brand was developing a new anti - aging cream. During the initial formulation, they encountered difficulties in achieving a stable emulsion and a smooth texture. After adding 3% polyglycerol -10 palmitate, the cream showed excellent stability, with no signs of oil - water separation even after long - term storage. The product also had a better spreadability and a more luxurious feel on the skin, which was well - received by consumers in the market research.
Case 3: Pharmaceutical Tablets
A pharmaceutical company was working on a new oral tablet for a poorly soluble drug. By using polyglycerol -10 palmitate as an excipient at a dosage of 2%, they were able to improve the solubility of the drug in the gastrointestinal tract. In vitro dissolution tests showed a significant increase
