| Applications | Diacetyl Tartaric Acid Esters of Mono and Diglycerides can produce strong effects such as emulsification, dispersing and aging resistance, so it can be used as good emulsifier and dispersant. 1. DATEM can react with amylose to delay and prevent the food aging, keep the shelf life longer. 2. DATEM can be used in cream to make it smoother and finer, improve the taste. 3. It can be used in butter and concentrated butter to prevent oil separating and enhance its stability. 4. Emulsifier E472e can also be used in sugar, syrup and spices. 5. Used in non-dairy creamer to make the emulsion homogeneous. |

| Category | It is used in bread, buns and many other yeast-leavened bakery products at levels of 0.2–0.6% (based on flour weight). DATEM possesses excellent dough strengthening properties due to its ability to adsorb at the gas/liquid interface of dough and stabilize the foam structure trapped by the gluten matrix and prevent gas bubble coalescence.1,2 So, DATEM enhances gas (CO3) retention and improves tolerance to shocks in case of mechanical abuse during final proofing and baking. Due to its anionic nature, DATEM also has the capacity to interact with gluten proteins, promoting protein aggregation. |
