Properties:

Sucrose fatty acid ester (SE) is one type of non-ionic surfactant. It has been used as food additive emulsifier. SE has eight hydroxyl groups in the hydrophilic group, so it is possible to manufacture SE ranging widely from low HLB v. to high HLB v. by controlling the degree of esterification. The main characteristics of SE are: O/W and W/O emulsifying properties, solubilizing and foaming properties, inhibition of crystal growth in fat and retrogradation in starch, releasing property and prevention of flat-sour spoilage. These characteristics are useful in the production of foods, such as dairy products and baked goods.
