Glyceryl rosinate, otherwise known as Glyceryl Ester of Gum Rosin or Gum Ester, is a unique chemical used in many industries. It is an ester of glycerol and various rosin acids that is obtained by altering gum resin. It has a characteristic yellow to reddish colour and is often in the form of a solid. It is distinguished by its adhesive properties, its causticity and its ability to form solid films, making it a popular component of many products.
Glyceryl rosinate is most commonly found in chewing gums, where it helps maintain their proper consistency and elasticity. Because it is edible, it is also used in the food industry as an additive, specifically as a glaze for fruit or a moisturiser for baked goods. It is also widely used in the cosmetic industry - it is a component of various depilatory waxes, where its properties enable effective hair removal. In the pharmaceutical industry, Glyceryl rosinate is used in some patches to guarantee their stickiness. In addition to these applications, Glyceryl rosinate is also often used as a raw material for the production of printing inks.
