High quality sodium stearoyl lactate

Introduction Sodium stearoyl lactylate (SSL for short) is an anionic surfactant, commonly used as a food emulsifier and quality improver. It usually appears as a white to light yellow brittle solid or powder, with a slight caramel odor. It is soluble in ethanol and hot oils, and can be dispersed in warm water. It is stable at room temperature. Its core function is to stabilize the combination of oil and water in food through emulsification. In bakery products, it can also enhance the elasticity of gluten and delay aging, while extending the shelf life of food. It is widely used in various foods such as bread, dairy products, confectionery, and meat products.
