Monostearin

Description:
Monostearin, also known as glyceryl monostearate, is a monoester derived from glycerol and stearic acid. It is characterized by its white, waxy solid form at room temperature and is commonly used as an emulsifier, stabilizer, and thickening agent in various food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications. Monostearin has a hydrophobic tail due to the long stearic acid chain, which allows it to interact with oils, while the glycerol part is hydrophilic, enabling it to interact with water. This amphiphilic nature makes it effective in forming stable emulsions. It is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in food products and is also utilized in the formulation of creams and lotions in the cosmetic industry. Additionally, monostearin can serve as a surfactant in various industrial applications. Its melting point is typically around body temperature, which contributes to its functionality in formulations. Overall, monostearin is valued for its ability to improve texture and stability in a wide range of products.

  • Glyceryl monostearate

    CAS:

    Glyceryl monostearate is a white powder that is composed of glycerin and stearic acid. It has been shown to have high chemical stability in the presence of benzalkonium chloride, which is an antiseptic. Glyceryl monostearate can be used as a particle stabilizer in the preparation of some medications, such as sodium citrate and water vapor. Glyceryl monostearate may also have potential for use in the treatment of metabolic disorders like diabetes mellitus. The mechanism by which glyceryl monostearate may work to treat diabetes mellitus is not well understood. Glyceryl monostearate has also been shown to inhibit leukemia inhibitory factor and phase transition temperature, but its function in these areas is unknown.
