Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate(SSL)

Description

HS Code:2918110000

SSL(Sodium stearoyl lactylate)
Sodium stearoyl lactylate is an emulsifier with a very high hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) and is therefore an excellent emulsifier for fat-in-water emulsions. It also functions as a humectant. It finds widespread application in baked goods, liqueurs, cereals, chewing gum, desserts, and powdered beverage mixes. Stearoyl lactylates are found in the majority of manufactured breads, buns, wraps and tortillas, and many similar bread-based products.Because of its efficiency as an emulsifier, it is possible to use less of it than other similar additives; for example, it can be used in quantities only a tenth as large as soya-based emulsifiers.
