What is Sorbitan Monostearate SMS?

Sorbitan monostearate, also known as Span 60, is an ester of sorbitan (a sorbitol derivative) and stearic acid and is sometimes referred to as a synthetic wax. It is primarily used as an emulsifier to keep water and oils mixed. Sorbitan monostearate is a non-ionic surfactant with emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties.

How to use Sorbitan Monostearate SMS (SPAN 60)

For dry yeast, margarine, shortening, confectionery, chocolate,

Application	Benefit	Suggested dosage
Dry yeast	As the carrier of active yeast. Promotes dry yeast performance (shape and bio-activity after hydration).	10%-15% of water,1% of dry yeast
Margarine	Maintains fine and stable water-oil dispersion. Improves plasticity. Prevents splashing during frying.	1-1.5%
Shortening	Adjusts oil crystal. Improves stability and whipping strength	1-1.5%
Whipping cream	Shortens whipping time. Improves foam volume and structure. Creates a nice and stiff foams.	0.2-0.5%, usually using with GMS and PGFE
Coffee whitener	Forms a more uniform fat globule size distribution resulting in improved whitening effect and dissolves in water well.	0.5-1% of oil and fat, usually with GMS
Cake emulsifier	Enlarges cake volume. Improves cake texture and paste stability. Prolongs shelf life.	3-5%, usually with GMS, PGFE and PGMS
Cake	Enlarges cake volume. Improves cake texture. Prolongs shelf life.	0.5% of flour, usually using cake gel directly
Bread	Enlarges volume and improves texture.	0.3% of flour, usually using mixed emulsified oils and fats
Ice cream	Promotes emulsifying if dairy fat. Prevents thick ice crystal. Improves mouth feel and shape retention. Increases bulging rate	0.1-0.3%, usually with GMS
Confections and chocolate	Improves oils and fat dispersion. Decreases syrup viscosity and adjusts crystallization of confections.	0.3-1%, usually with Tween 60
Protein beverage	Prevents delamination and sedimentation. Provides smooth mouth feel.	0.3-0.6%, usually with GMS
Solid drinks	Improves water-solubility and strengthens whitening.	0.2-0.3%
Dairy	Promotes fats dispersion and prevents delamination.	0.1-0.3%
