The molecularly distilled monoglyceride market is maturing and my country’s market growth rate is higher than the global average.

Molecularly distilled monoglyceride is an edible emulsifier that uses natural vegetable oils as raw materials and uses molecular distillation technology to purify the active ingredients to more than 90%. Molecularly distilled monoglyceride appears as a yellowish waxy solid or flake, tasteless, odorless, non-toxic, and easily emulsifies with water. As an efficient and high-quality edible emulsifier, molecularly distilled monoglyceride has the functions of emulsification, stabilization, dispersion, foaming, defoaming, and anti-aging. It is widely used in food, medicine, fine chemicals, plastic processing, cosmetics and other fields. .

Monoglyceride is one of the most widely used emulsifiers in the world. Its preparation methods include alcoholysis reaction method, direct esterification method, enzyme catalyzed synthesis method, glycidol method and group protection method, etc. The purification process includes molecular distillation method, Ion exchange method, solvent crystallization method, etc., among which molecular distillation method is the mainstream separation process. In recent years, with the advancement of separation technology, the purity of monoglycerides in my country has gradually improved, and the proportion of molecularly distilled monoglycerides has continued to expand.

According to the “2022-2026 China Molecular Distillation Monoglyceride Industry Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects Research Report released by the Industrial Research Center ” shows that in 2021, the global molecular distillation monoglyceride industry output will be around 452,000 tons, with market sales of approximately US$800 million. After years of development and accumulation, the global molecularly distilled monoglyceride market has become mature and the market growth rate is relatively stable. It is expected that the global molecularly distilled monoglyceride market will maintain an average annual compound growth rate of about 2.0% from 2022 to 2026.

Molecularly distilled monoglyceride is mainly used as an emulsifier in the food field. Its consumption level is closely related to the food processing industry and living standards. Globally, the consumer market for molecularly distilled monoglyceride is mainly concentrated in the United States, Western Europe and other regions.

There are many participants in the molecularly distilled monoglyceride market, and the market concentration is not high. The global molecularly distilled monoglyceride suppliers mainly include IFF, Guangzhou Jiadele Biochemical Technology, Riken, Kerry, BASF, Hangzhou Fuchun Food Additives, Guangzhou Kaiwen Food, etc., among which IFF is the world’s largest supplier of molecularly distilled monoglycerides.

Molecularly distilled monoglyceride has excellent environmental protection and can be used as a blowing agent for high-foaming polyethylene and polystyrene. Against the background of increasingly stringent environmental protection supervision, molecularly distilled monoglyceride has broad development space. my country has a large population and a large consumer market. However, the current consumption of molecularly distilled monoglyceride in my country is still less than one-tenth of the global level. There is still a large space for development in the domestic molecularly distilled monoglyceride consumption market.

Industry analysts said that in recent years, with the country’s increased emphasis on food safety, food additives have become greener and safer. Obviously, as a food emulsifier, molecularly distilled monoglyceride has the characteristics of green, safe and stable, and is in line with the current market consumption trend. my country’s molecularly distilled monoglyceride industry started late. Thanks to the increase in market demand and the improvement of residents’ consumption levels, the molecularly distilled monoglyceride market has developed rapidly, and its growth rate is higher than the global average.
