Mono Propylene Glycol Mono-Propylene glycol is a clear, colorless and hygroscopic liquid. It is produced on a large scale and is primarily used in the production of polymers but also sees use in food processing as the E-number E1520. Forty-five percent of propylene glycol produced is used as chemical feedstock for the production of unsaturated polyester resins. Mono-Propylene glycol is used as a humectant (E1520), solvent,...

  Ammonium bicarbonate is an inorganic compound with formula (NH4)HCO3. The compound has many names, reflecting its long history. Chemically speaking, it is the bicarbonate salt of ammonium.

  Mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids (E471) is a food additive used as an emulsifier. These synthetic fats are produced from glycerol and natural fatty acids, from either plant or animal origin. E471 is generally a mixture of several products, and its composition is similar to partially digested natural fat. E471 is mainly produced from vegetable oils, although animal fats are sometimes used and cannot be completely excluded as...
