Abstract: Disclosed are emulsifiers useful in food products such as cakes, icings, cream fillings, whipped toppings, etc. The emulsifiers comprise a blend of succinylated monoglycerides, monoglycerides, propylene glycol monoesters and an alkali metal salt of a fatty acid. The emulsifiers are essentially totally active and do not require the use of a carrier.

Abstract: Composition adapted for use as a starch complexing additive in potatoes and alimentary pasta products is described. The composition comprises a blend of about 25 to about 95% saturated monoglycerides prepared from vegetable oil and about 75 to 5% unsaturated monoglycerides prepared from vegetable oil. The composition is readily dispersible in the food product and overcomes problems such as stickiness in the cooked food.

Abstract: Disclosed are dry powdered emulsifiers suitable for use in dough from which bakery products are made. The powdered emulsifiers are solid solutions comprising (1) saturated monoesters, or mixtures of saturated monoesters and succinylated monoglycerides and (2) unsaturated monoesters. The monoesters are prepared from fatty acids and either glycerine or propylene glycol, and are saturated to an extent so as to have an iodine value within the range of about 5 to about 33, and a melting point of at least about 50.degree. C. The powder has sufficient wettability to form a particulate dispersion in water at 25.degree. C. under mild agitation.

Abstract: this invention concerns novel curing systems useful for curing unsaturated polyester/monomer mixtures such as the polyester of propylene glycol, phthalic anhydride and maleic anhydride, with styrene as the monomer. The curing system is the complex formed by the reaction of (1) a cobalt compound, such as Co(OH).sub.2 or CoCO.sub.3 (2) and acid of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is a straight or branched alkyl of 1-20 carbons which may be monosubstituted with hydroxyl, aryl of 6-10 ring carbons and cycloaliphatic of 6-10 ring carbons, and (3) a nitrogen component of the formula ##STR2## wherein R and R' are independently selected from straight and branched alkyl of 1-10 carbon atoms which may be monosubstituted with hydroxyl. The acid residue in the complex comprises from about 0.2 to about 20.0% by weight of said complex, the cobalt compound, as percent cobalt metal, from about 0.1 to about 10.0% by weight, and the nitrogen compound residue from about 65 to about 90% by weight.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for coating a substrate with a thermoplastic polymeric powder, especially polyester powder, by forming an emulsion containing fine particles of such powder, applying the emulsion to the substrate, and heating the coated substrate to a temperature sufficiently high to evaporate the liquid from the emulsion and thermally bond the particles to the substrate. The emulsifying agents are fatty acid esters of glycerol.
