description Product Description
Sorbitan monooleate is widely used as an emulsifier in the food industry, helping to blend ingredients that typically do not mix well, such as oil and water. It is commonly found in baked goods, ice cream, and salad dressings to improve texture and consistency. In cosmetics and personal care products, it acts as a stabilizer and emulsifier in creams, lotions, and makeup, ensuring a smooth and even application. Additionally, it is utilized in pharmaceuticals to aid in the formulation of ointments and creams, enhancing their spreadability and absorption. Its versatility also extends to industrial applications, where it serves as a surfactant in lubricants and coatings.
