Cas no 31566-31-1 (Glycerol Monostearate)
Glycerol Monostearate (GMS) is a monoglyceride commonly used as an emulsifier, stabilizer, and thickening agent in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications. Chemically, it consists of glycerol esterified with stearic acid, resulting in amphiphilic properties that enhance oil-water interactions. Its key advantages include improving texture and shelf stability in baked goods, dairy products, and margarine. In pharmaceuticals, GMS acts as a tablet binder or coating agent, while in cosmetics, it contributes to emulsion consistency and moisturization. The compound is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) and exhibits high compatibility with other ingredients, making it a versatile additive in industrial formulations.
