Frequently Asked Questions
What is polyglyceryl-3 distearate?
Polyglyceryl-3 distearate (CAS 34424-97-0) is a nonionic polyglycerol ester of stearic acid (C45H88O9). It functions as an emulsifier and co-emulsifier in cosmetic and personal-care formulations. RawSource supplies it as a formulation ingredient.
What does polyglyceryl-3 distearate do in a formulation?
It acts as an oil-in-water emulsifier and co-emulsifier for creams and lotions, stabilizing and refining emulsion texture, contributing body and consistency, and operating as a nonionic system compatible across a broad pH range. Request the technical data for use levels.
Is polyglyceryl-3 distearate a nonionic emulsifier?
Yes. As a polyglycerol ester it is nonionic, which is why it remains compatible across a broad pH range and pairs well as a co-emulsifier. CAS is 34424-97-0. Request a CoA for grade-specific identity.
What does the 'Kosher FG' designation indicate?
The 'Kosher FG' label indicates the material is offered with kosher certification and as a food-grade-qualified emulsifier grade. Request the current kosher certificate and CoA to confirm the documentation for your lot.
What is the cost of bulk polyglyceryl-3 distearate?
Bulk pricing depends on grade, packaging, and volume. RawSource quotes to spec — request a current quote with your target quantity and required certifications.
