Solubilization: Enhancing Formulation Stability in B2B Applications
In the competitive landscape of chemical manufacturing, solubilization is pivotal for integrating hydrophobic actives into aqueous systems, ensuring product efficacy and compliance. Our Polysorbate portfolio, including Polysorbate 20 (Tween 20, E432) and Polysorbate 80 (Tween 80, E433), excels as non-ionic surfactants, enabling clear emulsions in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals while adhering to FDA, EFSA, and REACH standards.Technical Properties and Applications
Polysorbate 20, with a high HLB value of 16.7, offers superior water solubility for light essential oils and fragrances, forming micelles at a low CMC of 0.06 mM for efficient dispersion in shampoos and beverages. Polysorbate 80, at HLB 15.0, targets heavier oils and fats, enhancing texture in ice cream and stabilizing anti-dandruff formulations. Both are vegan-derived from plant sources (e.g., coconut laurate), biodegradable, and exempt from microplastic regulations under ECHA definitions due to their solubility and degradability.
Solubility Profile: Fully miscible in water and ethanol; dispersible in oils.
Principais benefícios: Prevents separation, improves shelf life, and ensures regulatory compliance (ADI 25 mg/kg bw per JECFA).
Usage Ratios: 1:1 to 1:5 oil-to-surfactant for optimal clarity.
