Products in Processing & Packaging: Viscosity Modifier

Oppanol® B 12 SFN is used in the manufacturing of adhesives, sealants, lubricating oils, coating compounds, and chewing gum. It consists of medium-molecular-weight polyisobutenes, which are soluble in aliphatic, aromatic, cyclic, and halogenated hydrocarbons. Their solvation tendency increases with the length of the hydrocarbon chain.

MASCEROL™ Glycerine 99.7 USP, non-GMO, RSPO MB is highly refined with a minimum glycerol content of 99.7%. MASCEROL™ Refined Glycerine is used as a base ingredient in personal care preparations. It provides moisturizing properties and improves skin permeability. It is a gentle ingredient for anti-aging and anti-irritant cosmetics found in skin and hair care applications, shaving cream, soaps, and water-based lubricants. MASCEROL™ Refined Glycerine is used as an excipient in pharmaceutical production and preparations for improving smoothness, providing lubrication, and because of its humectant characteristics. It is also found in allergen immunotherapies, cough syrups, tinctures, elixirs, and expectorants. It is a tablet-holding agent and a key ingredient in soft gelatin capsules. In food as well as beverage applications, MASCEROL™ serves as a humectant or wetting agent, solvent, sweetener, or sugar substitute (approximately 60% as sweet as sucrose), thickening agent, or filler.

AllanChem Corn Starch is a high-quality formulation and processing aid that is used as a viscosity modifier and thickener.

Tylopur hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) products, like their methylcellulose counterparts, are unique food ingredients that gel upon heating and reverse upon cooling. Tylopur SFE-400 is a soft-gelling HPMC with a high sugar tolerance that provides structure and softness to the following formulations:Sweet and savory fillingsGels during the frying or baking process to prevent blow-outs, then reverses upon cooling. This gives the benefit of keeping your filling where it belongs during cooking, but without any unexpected texture differences when consumed. Foam stabilization:Traps and holds air very effectively for non-dairy/vegan whipped toppings and icings.Works extremely well to replace egg whites in formulations such as vegan meringue, vegan angel-food cakes, and other formulations where frothy and light textures are needed.

TYLOPUR® SE-6 is a versatile HPMC with a semi-firm gelling functionality and very good film forming capabilities.

Tylopur methylcellulose products are unique food ingredients that gel upon heating and reverse upon cooling. The Tylopur MCE-100TS is our strongest gelling methylcellulose product.Most commonly this ingredient can be found in plant-based meats where it creates a juicy, meat-like texture in burgers, seafood, nuggets, and hot dogs (just to name a few) that cannot be replicated with any other ingredient.

Tylopur methylcellulose products are unique food ingredients that gel upon heating and reverse upon cooling. The Tylopur MCE-4000 creates a firm gel structure that help to provide structure in many formulations. You can find methylcellulose creating great textures in the following applications:Plant-based meatsThe possibilities are endless for plant-based versions of your favorite meats – burgers, seafood, nuggets, and hot dogs, just to name a few.Gels to create a juicy, meat-like texture that cannot be replicated with any other ingredient. Sweet and savory fillingsGels during the frying or baking process to prevent blow-outs, then reverses upon cooling. This gives the benefit of keeping your filling where it belongs during cooking, but without any unexpected texture differences when consumed. Egg replacement for vegan formulationsA simple emulsion of Tylopur, oil & water that is pan fried looks just like a cooked egg white!Creates a firm gel structure during cooking for many different vegan-suitable applications, including condiments!

Candelilla is a unique natural wax with properties not exhibited by other waxes. With a natural resin content it provides excellent film forming capabilities, provides flex and gloss to stick formulations and promotes reliable gelling capabilities.

AMSil™ 35 FGK is a hydrophobic silica, fumed and precipitated silicas are used in a wide range of applications

Willy Benecke Locust bean gum is a vegetable, natural thickening agent made from the seeds of the carob tree. Because of its heat and drought resistance, it is mainly native to the Mediterranean region. Spain, Italy and Portugal are the main producing countries. The legume tree has large, black-brownish, curved pods with a bulging edge and a leathery skin. The beans contained in it consist of about 30% husk, about 25% seeds and about 45% endosperm.

Willy Benecke Guar gum is obtained from the endosperm of the guar plant, Cyamopsis tetragonolobus. It belongs to the legume family. The so called bush bean is mainly grown in India and Pakistan from July to December. However, quality, availability and prices are very dependent on the monsoons during this period.

GELATIN is widely used in various fields of the food industry due to its properties such as thickening, gelling, clarification, stabilization, foaming, emulsion formation and stabilization, film formation.
