RECOMMENDATIONS FOR GLYCEROL MONOSTEARATE E471

The percentage in mono -diglycerides changes depending on the application. In some products, low mono -diglyceride content is preferred. For example, 40-60% of GMS is used as in tahini halva. Free glycerol and total glycerol values are important. It is desirable that they are within normal limits. GMS are used as 90-99% purity
