Description

Triglycerol monostearate (CAS 26855-43-6 ), also known as triglycerol stearate, is a polyglycerol ester derived from stearic acid used as an emulsifier and rheology modifier across food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. DERMOFEEL PS is a recognized trade form supplying this ester to personal care formulators. Its ability to stabilize oil-in-water and water-in-oil systems makes it a practical choice for manufacturers managing emulsion consistency. In food manufacturing, it functions as an emulsifier in baked goods, margarine, and dairy-based products to improve texture and extend shelf stability. Cosmetic formulators incorporate it into creams, lotions, and skin conditioning products. These formulations benefit from both emulsification and moisturizing performance. Pharmaceutical topical preparations use it to control viscosity and ensure uniform active ingredient distribution across semi-solid dosage forms. In personal care, it supports water-binding in leave-on skin formulations, reducing the need for heavier occlusive agents. Triglycerol monostearate is typically supplied as a waxy solid or flake for easy handling. Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are the most commonly available, with technical-grade material also offered for industrial applications. Purity levels and ester content vary by supplier for specific needs. Buyers should confirm specification sheets against intended application requirements. This ensures compliance with necessary industry benchmarks such as FCC , USP , Ph.Eur. , BP , EP , or ACS standards where applicable. Contact us for supply of Triglycerol monostearate Request Quote
