🔬 Tailor-made Polyglycerols: One Molecule, Multiple Possibilities
Polyglycerols are polymers of glycerol, obtained through controlled condensation. Their structure, rich in hydroxyl groups, makes them highly reactive, water-soluble, and compatible with numerous ingredients, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
This flexibility makes them ideal for the development of:
-
Plant-based emulsifiers
-
Solubilizers for lipophilic actives
-
Additives for lubricants and plastics
-
Co-formulating agents for pharmaceuticals and supplements
-
Stabilizers in food emulsions
