Sucrose monodecanoate is widely used in the food industry as an emulsifier and stabilizer. It helps blend ingredients that typically do not mix well, such as oil and water, ensuring a consistent texture in products like ice cream, baked goods, and salad dressings. Its ability to improve shelf life and maintain product quality makes it valuable in processed foods. Additionally, it is utilized in cosmetics and personal care products to enhance the texture and stability of creams, lotions, and other formulations. Its mild and non-irritating properties make it suitable for skin-friendly applications.
