Description

Sucrose Myristate is a non-ionic surfactant derived from the esterification of sucrose with myristic acid. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, stabilizing, and conditioning properties, making it a versatile ingredient in formulations requiring mildness and biodegradability. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and food industries for creating stable, high-quality products.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary emulsifier and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and sunscreens, providing a smooth texture and enhancing skin feel.
• Food Industry: Used as an emulsifier in certain food products, helping to blend ingredients that would otherwise separate.
• Pharmaceuticals: Serves as an excipient in topical formulations and emulsions, valued for its safety and mildness.
• Industrial Applications: Functions as a dispersing agent and emulsifier in agrochemicals and specialty cleaning products.
• Research & Development: Employed as a biochemical tool in laboratory studies involving surfactants and membrane models.

Quality Control

Our Sucrose Myristate is produced under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards and consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, ester content, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect quality.
