Glyceryl Monolaurate Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Monolaurin
- Glycerol Monolaurate
- Lauric Acid Monoglyceride
Glyceryl monolaurate is a lauric-acid monoester used in oleochemical, surfactant, lubricant and personal-care formulations. ChemTrade accepts Malaysia enquiries for industrial, emulsifier and higher-purity solid grades.
Monolaurin may be supplied as powder, flakes or pastilles, with the physical form chosen around charging, dispersion and melt-processing equipment. Buyers compare monoester content, acid value, moisture, colour and odour when the material is part of a qualified formulation.
Applications include personal-care and cleansing products, industrial surfactant blends, polymer processing aids and specialty oleochemical manufacture. Glyceryl monolaurate is distinct from glycerol tristearate, glyceryl monostearate and polyglyceryl laurate products.
Send the application, grade, physical form, required limits, quantity and delivery location with the enquiry. Availability, solid packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Glyceryl Monolaurate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industrial surfactant grade | white flakes or powder | — | Surfactant and functional oleochemical input for formulated cleaning, personal-care and industrial products. | Bag, carton or lined solid pack is confirmed for the order quantity. |
| Lubricant and emulsifier grade | waxy solid or pastilles | — | Lubricant, release-aid and emulsifying component in polymer, oleochemical and process formulations where monolaurin is specified. | Solid packing is matched to the charging and storage method. |
| High-purity glyceryl monolaurate | refined white solid | — | Personal-care, specialty formulation and development work requiring tighter colour, odour, assay and impurity controls. | Pack size and document requirements are confirmed with the quotation. |

Glyceryl Monolaurate applications
Common questions about glyceryl monolaurate
What is glyceryl monolaurate used for?
Glyceryl monolaurate, also called monolaurin, is a functional oleochemical used in surfactant, emulsifier, lubricant and personal-care formulations. Industrial buyers should specify the role in the finished product because form and purity affect processing.
Is glyceryl monolaurate the same as glycerol tristearate?
No. Glyceryl monolaurate is a lauric-acid monoester, while glycerol tristearate is a three-stearate triglyceride. They are separate products with different fatty-acid chains, functionality and physical behaviour.
Which physical form of monolaurin should I request?
Powder, flakes or pastilles may suit different charging and blending systems. State whether the plant uses manual addition, hopper feeding, pre-dispersion or melt processing so the practical grade can be reviewed.
Can glyceryl monolaurate be used in industrial cleaning products?
It can be considered as a functional surfactant or formulation aid in selected cleaning systems when compatibility and performance are qualified. Provide the product type, pH range and processing method with the enquiry.
What information is needed for a glyceryl monolaurate quotation?
Send the grade, assay or monoester content, acid value, moisture, colour, physical form, quantity, documents and delivery point. Packing and timing are confirmed for the selected specification.
