Category overview
Ingredient sourcing starts with the finished product.
Emulsifiers help manage interfaces between components that do not naturally remain mixed, such as oil and water. Selection depends on phase ratio, process, droplet size, heat, pH and desired shelf stability.
Nutrifena supplies individual emulsifiers and supplier-defined systems. Composition, permitted use and dosage must be confirmed for the selected grade and destination market.

Buyer questions
Emulsifiers FAQ
What does an emulsifier do?
It helps form or maintain a dispersion between otherwise incompatible phases, depending on the product and process.
Are soy and sunflower lecithin interchangeable?
Not automatically. Composition, allergen implications, flavor, processing behavior and customer requirements should be compared.
Does an emulsifier guarantee shelf stability?
No. Formula, homogenization, droplet size, stabilizers, packaging and storage all contribute to stability.
