sucrose polystearate

Synose sucrose esters of fatty acids is made from natural sucrose and fatty acids, which derived from vegetable oil. It is synthesized by solvent-free method, with the process of refining and purification.

1. Chemical structure

The sucrose molecule contains eight hydroxyl groups and can combine with fatty acids to form sucrose esters from mono-fatty acids to octa-fatty acids.

CAS No.： 92571-82-5

2. Characteristic features：

2.1 White to light yellow powder, tasteless or slightly lipid taste, it is dispersible or dissolved in water, and easily soluble in organic solvents such as hot ethanol.

2.2 Sucrose esters of fatty acids is a non-ionic surfactant, which is stable under weak acid or weak base conditions. It contains a strong hydrophilic sucrose hydroxyl group and a lipophilic fatty acid group, so it is an excellent emulsifier. 

2.3 Compared with other edible emulsifiers, it has a wider HLB value (1-18) and has good functional properties. It has good synergistic compatibility when used together with other surfactants.

2.4 It has excellent biodegradability, the degradation products are harmless and will not cause environmental pollution.

2.5 It is non-toxic, it is safe to eyes, skin and mucous membranes, and is suitable to use in cosmetics.

2.6 It is mainly used as emollient, emulsifying, skin conditioning and surfactant in cosmetics.
