Sucrose Ester Emulsifier 1 kg

What Makes Sucrose Ester Emulsifier a Reliable Choice for Food, Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical Formulas

Sucrose ester emulsifier is a mild non-ionic ingredient produced by combining sucrose with fatty acids. Belonging to the Emulsifiers category, it is best known in the food industry under the designation E473, where it is used in confectionery, ice cream, chocolate coatings, baked goods and beverages to keep fat and water phases stable without altering taste or texture. This wide industrial recognition makes it one of the most requested emulsifiers among food technologists worldwide.

Beyond food manufacturing, this ingredient plays an important role in cosmetic production, appearing in creams, lotions, sunscreens and hair care emulsions. Its gentle non-ionic behavior makes it suitable even for sensitive skin formulations and baby care products. In pharmaceutical applications, sucrose ester is used to stabilize suspensions, ointments and encapsulated forms, helping distribute active substances evenly throughout the product.

The 1 kg packaging suits studio and small-batch production as well as smaller manufacturing workshops that need dependable supply without committing to large industrial volumes. This size is convenient for regular use in a laboratory or compact production facility where the emulsifier is consumed gradually and requires careful storage.

Recommended dosage ranges from 0.5 to 5 percent depending on the product type and desired texture: lighter lotions typically require the lower end of the range, while thicker creams and food emulsions may need a higher share. The ingredient should be added to the oil phase at around 60-70 degrees, then combined thoroughly with the water phase until a uniform emulsion forms. Sucrose ester works well alongside other emulsifiers, such as STS E492 emulsifier, which improves stability in formulas with high oil content, and ERCAWAX CE V, suitable for denser textures. For pharmaceutical and cosmetic compositions requiring extra stability, many formulators add Emulsifier Emulpharma 165, which reinforces the system against temperature fluctuations.

Sucrose ester should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a dry and cool place away from direct sunlight, avoiding temperature swings and moisture exposure. Under these conditions the ingredient retains its emulsifying properties for an extended period, which matters greatly when planning industrial batches and long-term supply schedules.
