Properties
  • Esterified monoglycerides are used in yeast raised products to obtain products with higher volume and uniform crumb structure or to prepare homogenous emulsions. In whipped toppings, they improve the aeration and foam stability and improve the mouth feel.
  • BASF’s esterified monoglycerides (E 472a, E 472b, E 472c, E 472e) complies with the current specifications established by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the current EU Regulation laying down specifications for food additives. Some are also in compliance with the current FCC (Food Chemical Codex) specification requirements.
  • Our ACETEM, LACTEM, CITREM and DATEM products are available as fine powder, powder, paste, greasy paste, viscous oil or liquid oil. They are based on non-hydrogenated or fully hydrogenated natural oils as e.g. palm oil, rape seed oil, sunflower oil or maize germ oil.
  • BASF is a founding member of the organization “Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil” (RSPO). All palm oil based esterified monoglycerides are certified and available in the RSPO quality “mass balanced” (MB quality) or even “segregated” (SG quality). 
  • The esterified monoglycerides are stable for at least 12-24 months (type dependent), when stored in its unopened original package at a dry and cool place of temperatures of 0-20°C.
