Comparing E482 - Calcium stearoyl-2-lactylate vs E472F - Mixed acetic and tartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids

E472F - Mixed acetic and tartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids

E472F is a group of emulsifiers made by attaching small amounts of acetic acid and tartaric acid to mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids. Food makers use it to help oil and water mix, to stabilize foams, and to improve the texture of baked goods and creams. It is authorized for use in the European Union with defined purity rules.
