Product Description of Glycerol CAS#56-81-5
Glycerol (glycerin) is a clear, colorless, viscous polyol liquid, refined from vegetable oil or synthetic route with high purity grade. It features faint sweet taste and low volatility. Our glycerol is available in food grade, cosmetic grade and industrial grade, strictly tested to meet international purity standards. It is a non-toxic, biodegradable additive favored by formulators for its moisturizing, plasticizing and solvent functions.
Glycerol Chemical Properties
Glycerol is a trihydric alcohol with three hydroxyl groups, showing strong hygroscopicity. It is miscible in any proportion with water and ethanol, while insoluble in benzene, chloroform and mineral oil. It can form esters with fatty acids, undergo dehydration and etherification under proper catalysis. It has high boiling point and low freezing point, remaining stable at common formulation temperatures without easy decomposition.
Product Application of Glycerol CAS#56-81-5
In food industry, it works as humectant, sweetener and solvent in confectionery, bakery and beverage. In cosmetics, it is the classic moisturizer added to cream, lotion and toothpaste. In pharma, it is used in suppositories, oral liquids and topical ointments. It also acts as plasticizer for cellophane, antifreeze agent and raw material for producing glycerol esters and epichlorohydrin.
