Product Introduction

Product Description

Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate E476 is produced from polyglycerol and ricinoleic acid derived from castor oil. It functions as a strong water-in-oil emulsifier, allowing cocoa butter and other fat components to flow more easily. In chocolate processing, PGPR works by modifying fat interactions, improving flow properties, and enhancing molding and enrobing performance.

This emulsifier is commonly used alongside lecithin to achieve optimal rheology control in chocolate formulations.
