Application Fields
1.Food Manufacturing Industry：Alcoholic Beverages: Glycerin is used as a flavor modifier, sweetener, and bitterness-masking agent in alcoholic beverages. Appropriate addition can enhance aroma, sweetness, and body.
Meat Products: Used as a humectant in dried meat, sausages, and cured meat products to maintain softness and improve tenderness.
2.Beverage Industry：Juices and Soft Drinks: Applied in fruit juices and fruit vinegar beverages to effectively reduce bitterness and astringency, enhance body and aroma, improve appearance, and deliver a balanced sweet-and-sour taste.
3.Baking Industry：Pastries and Cakes: Used in bread and cakes as a moisture-retaining agent. Its strong hygroscopicity helps maintain softness and extend shelf life.
4.Pharmaceutical Industry ：Glycerin is used in various pharmaceutical formulations, including oral, ophthalmic, parenteral, and topical preparations.
5.Personal Care Industry：Moisturizing Agent: Glycerin absorbs moisture from the air to hydrate the skin and locks in skin moisture to prevent water loss.
Skin Repair: Helps support skin recovery, reduces the occurrence of irritant dermatitis, and assists in restoring the skin’s natural barrier function.
Packaging
IBC tanks, drums, and tank trucks.
Storage Conditions
Glycerin is hygroscopic and should be stored in tightly sealed containers such as glass, plastic, or stainless steel containers, and kept in a cool, dry place.
