CAS 83271-10-7
:Dextrin palmitate
Description:
Dextrin palmitate is a chemical compound formed by the esterification of dextrin, a polysaccharide derived from starch, with palmitic acid, a saturated fatty acid. It is typically used as an emulsifier and stabilizer in various food and cosmetic formulations due to its ability to improve texture and enhance the solubility of ingredients. Dextrin palmitate is characterized by its amphiphilic nature, which allows it to interact with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances, making it effective in creating stable emulsions. It is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in food products, although its specific applications may vary based on regulatory guidelines. In cosmetics, it can contribute to the moisturizing properties of formulations and improve the spreadability of creams and lotions. The compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in organic solvents while being less soluble in water. Its stability and functionality make it a valuable ingredient in both food science and cosmetic chemistry.
