Glycerin

Glycerin is a very versatile molecule that is available in both refined and crude forms. Refined USP glycerin offers moisturizing and emulsifying functionalities; these properties make it an effective additive in various personal care and home care formulations. Crude glycerin can reduce freezing point and raise viscosity in a variety of industrial formulations. Polyglycerols offer higher hydroxyl functionality than can be achieved with glycerin. This functionality can be utilized in developing novel ester derivatives or to replace higher cost polyols.
