Stabilizing

Stabilizing Ingredients or Chemicals 

Description of Stabilizing: stabilizers ensure that the function and activity of the other ingredients are maintained, and they help to prevent degradation. Stabilizing agents in food prevent spoilage and make it possible to maintain the physico-chemical state of a foodstuff. Thickeners, foam stabilizers, emulsifiers, anti-caking agents, etc. are categories of food stabilizers and examples are substances which stabilize or retain the color of a foodstuff or more general ingredients which enable the maintenance of homogenous dispersions. Much the same is valid for stabilizing agents for personal care applications. Typical examples for this market are ingredients which maintain or strengthen fragrances or substances to stabilize pH and emulsions. Another category stabilizer for personal care and many industrial products is the type of stabilizer which prevent degradation by Oxidation and UV light. IngreCore offers a broad range of effective stabilizing ingredients from thickeners to emulsifiers and examples are Guar VH17 or IngreSil ALDM-470 or IngreCarbomer 380.
