CANOLA OIL- ▸ Emulsifier: Fatty-acid glycerides act as emulsifiers in food systems.
- ▸ Antioxidant stabilization: TBHQ and citric acid retard oxidation of the oil phase.
- ▸ Food-grade carrier: Propylene-glycol-carried oil blend for food applications.
A grade-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — with the complete hazard classification, handling precautions, and transport information — is supplied with every shipment and available on request. Confirm all safety and regulatory details against the SDS for your specific grade.
Request SDS →This material (CAS 120962-03-0) is a food-grade blend of canola oil glyceride and corn (Zea mays) oil, stabilized with the antioxidants TBHQ and citric acid and carried in propylene glycol. Fatty-acid glycerides of this type function as emulsifiers in food systems, while TBHQ and citric acid retard oxidation of the oil phase.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is citric acid used for in this blend?
In this food-grade blend, citric acid functions alongside TBHQ as an antioxidant, retarding oxidation of the oil phase (canola oil glyceride and corn oil). It is a metal chelant that helps stabilize the fatty-acid glycerides.
What is this material used for?
This food-grade blend (CAS 120962-03-0) of canola oil glyceride and corn (Zea mays) oil functions as an emulsifier in food systems, with the fatty-acid glycerides providing emulsification and TBHQ plus citric acid stabilizing the oil phase against oxidation. Propylene glycol serves as the carrier.
What does the propylene glycol do in this blend?
Propylene glycol acts as the food-grade carrier/solvent for the oil and antioxidant components, aiding dispersion and handling. The blend is supplied for food applications; consult the technical data sheet for use levels.
Is citric acid the same as vinegar?
No. Citric acid is a tricarboxylic acid (here used as an antioxidant/chelant), while vinegar is a dilute solution of acetic acid; they are chemically distinct. In this blend citric acid is present as a stabilizer, not as an acidulant for flavor.
What is the cost of this food-grade blend in bulk?
Pricing depends on packaging and order volume. RawSource quotes food-grade industrial quantities and provides a CoA and SDS per lot; request a bulk quote with your target volume for current pricing.
