The span is white or yellowish wax, flake, powder (≥100 mesh). Soluble in hot ethanol, ether, methanol and carbon tetrachloride, slightly soluble in ether, petroleum ether, can be dispersed in hot water, is a w/o emulsifier, with strong emulsification, dispersion, lubrication.
Span is a product of chemical synthesis of various fatty acids and sorbitol obtained by fractionation of vegetable oils, which can be used as food emulsifier according to GB2760-86, safe, non-toxic and non-irritating. As a food additive, span is widely used in cake oil, bread improver and various drinks, which plays the role of emulsification, stability and foaming.
Specific applications are shown in the following aspects:
1, the application of ice cream ice cream with this product can play emulsification, dispersion and stability, and increase the volume of ice cream.
2, the application of bread, cake, biscuits, etc., in bread and cake as an emulsifier of shortening, can make the dough mix easily and expand well after use; It can also be used for pastry, cake mix, icing on pastry and cream decorating.
