Oleochemical products can offer solutions to animal nutrition in the field of processing, improving digestibility, easy digestible energy sources and antimicrobial activity.
Short and medium chain monoglycerides disturb the integrity of microbial cell structures and possess therefore antimicrobial properties.
Due to their shorter chain length compared to standard fats, medium chain triglycerides are rapidly digested and metabolized leading to increased energy levels. (Mono)propylene glycol and glycerine work as humectant in attracting water. It helps to keep animal feed moist, fresh and chewy – and thus easier for animals to digest. For cattle and poultry, (mono)propylene glycol and glycerine in the feed are also a readily-available source of energy.
Improving pelleting and extrusion quality and output by improved emulsifying and dispersion of ingredients and interaction with starch.
By forming homogenous mixture of oil, water and other ingredients, emulsifiers can improve fat digestion and absorption by reducing the size and therefore increasing the surface area of the present oil droplets.
Take a look at our Radiamuls portfolio including Mono- and diglycerides, Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT), SSL and Sorbitol based esters.
