Abstract
Disclosed are compositions of one or more glycerol monoesters of fatty acid; one or more fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylenated glycerol, hexitan, hexitol, or isohexide; one or more polymeric glycerol esters of fatty acid; and edible oil; which are dilutable with water to form a release agent useful in, e.g., baking operations.
Claims32
A liquid pan release agent composition comprising:
- (a) about 25 wt. % to about 50 wt. % of a glycerol monoester component selected from the group consisting of glycerol monoesters of fatty acids containing 12 to 22 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof;
- (b) about 18 wt. % to about 32 wt. % of a polyoxyethylene ester component selected from the group consisting of monoesters of fatty acids containing 12 to 22 carbon atoms with polyoxyethylenated glycerol, hexitan, hexitol, and isohexide and mixtures thereof;
- (c) about 1 wt. % to about 10 wt. % of a polymeric glycerol ester component selected from the group consisting of monoesters, diesters, triesters, tetraesters, and pentaesters of polymeric glycerol having a degree of polymerization of 2 to 10 with one to five fatty acids containing 12 to 22 carbon atoms, and mixtures thereof;
- and
- (d) about 5 wt. % to about 50 wt. % of one or more edible oils.
