GLYCERINE PRODUCT APPLICATIONS
Glycerine is the by-product from the splitting of natural oils/fats during Fatty Acid production. However it is a most versatile product in its own right.
Normally the crude product from Fatty Acid production is further refined to give a Pharmaceutical Grade product of min 99.5% purity.
MKR supply Glycerine of vegetable origin only, as for most applications it is usually preferred over the tallow based product.
COSMETICS, TOILETRIES, PHARMACEUTICALS: Glycerine USP & BP 99.5% provide a high standard of
purity, safety, consistency, colour and excellent odour characteristics for use as a moisture
retention agent and medium for dispersion of other ingredients in toothpastes, cosmetics, soaps,
cough syrups and pharmaceuticals.
TOBACCO INDUSTRY: Glycerine is used as a humectant in the processing of tobacoo leaves.
it is also used in the production of triacetin for cigarette filters.
FOOD EMULSIFIERS AND BEVERAGES: Glycerine is an important component in the production of Distilled Glycerol Monostearate
and in beverages.
POLYOLS AND ALKYD RESIN: Glycerine has been used in the production of a wide range of polyols used in polyurethane.
It is also an important raw material for alkyd resin for paints, imparting the right flow property, pour point and viscosity.
