According to the supply of glyceryl caprylate: glyceryl caprylate It is colorless, odorless, low viscosity, transparent liquid, neutral. Easy to mix with ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, chloroform, glycerin and other solvents. It is also soluble in many lipid substances in cosmetics. It is stable at low temperatures and is still transparent below 0oC (freezing point -10oC), with an HLB value of 12.5.
The application and advantages of processing octanoic acid glyceryl ester in collagen casings:
Collagen casings are food ingredients and are used for filling sausages. And serve with sausage.
Glyceryl caprylate is used as a coating agent and release agent in the shrinking and packaging process during the production of casings, and is applied on the surface of the casings. Glyceryl caprylate has very good oxidative stability and is particularly stable at high and low temperatures. The viscosity of the oil is 20-50cps, which is about one-third of ordinary vegetable oil. It has good diffusibility. Its emulsification, solubility, extensibility and lubricity are better than ordinary oil. In the actual production process, it is better than that of spicy oil. Capric glyceryl ester has low viscosity and strong diffusivity. A good dosage can achieve the technical purpose, and the amount that will stick to the surface of the food will be very small, preventing the food from looking very greasy. Its excellent characteristics are very suitable for the processing needs of collagen casings. It has good lubrication, release agent coating and anti-sticking functions during the shrinking process of casings.
During the sausage processing process, the amount of collagen casing used to make 1KG sausage is about 4g~8g (depending on the diameter). After enema, use a large amount of warm water to rinse or rinse the surface of the sausage, and then steam or After hot water cooking, the octanoic acid glyceryl ester in the casing is basically removed, leaving almost no residue; even if there is still octanoic acid glyceryl residue in the collagen casing, after it is made into a finished sausage, 0.5 octanoic acid glyceride should be used per person per day. kg sausages, the number of casings consumed daily is 2g~4g, and the amount of octanoic acid glyceride ingested is even smaller, far less than 30g, which will not cause harm to the human body.
