Category: Emulsifiers (synthetic)
Also known as: E471, GMS, Glycerol Monostearate, Glyceryl Monostearate, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Mono- and Diglycerides of Fatty Acids
Glyceryl Stearate (glyceryl monostearate, GMS; CAS 31566-31-1) is a mono-ester of glycerin and stearic acid, manufactured industrially by esterification of stearic acid with glycerol. It is one of the most widely used non-ionic emulsifiers and thickeners in cosmetics and personal-care products, providing a smooth, creamy, opaque texture and stable oil-in-water emulsions. It appears in moisturizers, lotions, creams, conditioners, body butters, sunscreens, baby products, hair masks, makeup foundations, primers, and pharmaceutical ointments. Its emulsifying function helps blend water and oil phases, stabilize formulas against separation, improve spreadability, and enhance skin softness. Glyceryl Stearate is also FDA-permitted as a direct food additive (E471, mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids) under 21 CFR 184.1505 — used in baked goods, margarines, ice cream, and processed foods. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel concluded that Glyceryl Stearate (and its self-emulsifying variant Glyceryl Stearate SE) is safe as used in cosmetics. CosIng-listed under EU Cosmetic Products Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 with functions: emulsifier, emollient, skin-conditioning. EFSA approved as food additive E471. Permitted globally with no significant restrictions. Mostly produced from synthetically processed plant-derived feedstocks (palm or coconut oil). CAS 31566-31-1.

Sodium Carbonate (soda ash, washing soda, Na2CO3; CAS 497-19-8) is the sodium salt of carbonic acid, produced industrially by the Solvay process and from natural trona deposits. It is a white, hygroscopic crystalline powder, strongly alkaline in solution. In food manufacturing, Sodium Carbonate functions as an acidity regulator, anti-caking agent, raising/leavening agent, and Dutch-process cocoa alkalizer. It is used in processed cheese formulations, dry powder beverages, ramen and Chinese-style noodles (the alkaline mineral water "lye water" or "kansui" that gives ramen its texture), dough conditioning, and chocolate processing. Beyond food, it is used in detergent manufacturing (water-softening), glass production, paper pulping, and pH adjustment in swimming pools. As a pharmaceutical it's used as an antacid and electrolyte replacement. The FDA recognizes Sodium Carbonate as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) under 21 CFR 184.1742 with permitted technical effects of pH control, processing aid, neutralizer, and curing/pickling agent. In the EU, it is authorized as food additive E500(i) (anhydrous) and E500(iii) (sesquicarbonate) under Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 with no ADI restriction. EFSA has confirmed safety.
