Product Introduction

Product Description

CITREM E472c (Citric Acid Esters of Mono- and Diglycerides) is a multifunctional emulsifier known for its excellent compatibility with fats, oils, and protein systems. Produced from citric acid and edible glycerides, it provides reliable emulsification, stabilization, and dispersion across a wide range of applications.

In food processing, CITREM helps improve texture, enhance aeration, control fat crystallization, and maintain product stability during storage and heat treatment. It performs especially well in dairy products, bakery items, beverages, and nutritional formulations.

Outside the food industry, CITREM E472c is also used in cosmetics, personal care products, and pharmaceuticals due to its mild nature and ability to create stable oil-in-water systems. This makes it a versatile ingredient for manufacturers seeking clean, efficient, and multifunctional emulsifier solutions.
