Description

Ammonium Caseinate is a water-soluble protein derivative derived from milk casein, modified with ammonium hydroxide to enhance its functional properties. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, stabilizing, and film-forming capabilities, making it a versatile functional ingredient. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the food, pharmaceutical, and technical industries seeking to improve product texture, stability, and performance.

Application

• Food Industry: Used as an emulsifier and stabilizer in coffee whiteners, whipped toppings, processed cheeses, and nutritional beverages.
• Pharmaceuticals: Acts as a binder and film-forming agent in tablet coatings and as a protein source in nutritional supplements.
• Technical Applications: Employed in the production of water-based adhesives, paper coatings, and textile sizing for its binding properties.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Functions as a conditioning agent and emulsifier in hair care products and skin creams.
• Animal Feed: Serves as a high-quality protein additive in specialty feed formulations.
