Polysorbate 80
What Is Polysorbate 80 Made Of?
Polysorbate 80 also knownas as polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate, consists of sorbitol, ethylene oxide, and oleic acid. It has a molecular formula of C64H124O26. At room temperature, it is in the form of pale-yellow to amber oily liquid. It is an O/W emulsifier with apolysorbate 80 food additiveHLB value of 15.0. It is soluble in water, ethanol, ethyl acetate, and toluene. Polysorbateglycol sorbitan monooleate is a surfactant with numerous applications in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics; other than that, it can also use as an emulsifier for culture medium to reduce the surface tension of the medium, which enhances the growth of cells. Polyethylene span sorbitanmonooleate is also widely used in industrial productions such as use as a wetting agent and dispersant for photographic film making; as a stabilizer and foaming agent for polyurethane foaming plastic.

Advantages of Polysorbate 80
Our polysorbate 80 is used as an emulsifier in combination with a variety of other hydrophobic emulsifiers to cover a wide range of O/W and W/O emulsions.
When used on its own, sorbate 80 is an excellent solubilizer of essential oils, wetting agent, viscosity modifier, and disperser.
Polysorbate e433can be used in food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, feed, and industr.
Polysorbate 80 In Bath Bombs
Capable of exerting great fragrance and providing the users with an excellent bath experience, bath bombs are very popular all around the world. Using the chemical reaction between baking soda and acid, bath bombs can create beautiful bubbles when touching the water. However, many people do not know another scientific principle behind bath bombs. That is the important role of an emulsifier; or more specifically, polysorbate emulsifier span 80. As the water and essence oil inside the bath bombs cannot mix normally, the use of emulsifiers is then of great significance so as to make sure the essential oil and color in the bath bombs can disperse more evenly instead of floating on the top of the bath water. Normally, the proportion of polysorbate 80 emulsifier in the total batch is around 2% in the liquid stage.
