Polysorbate – 80

Description

Polysorbate 80, derived from the ethoxylation of sorbitan, serves as a vital component in cosmetic formulations. This process involves the addition of 80 units of ethylene oxide to sorbitan, resulting in the creation of this yellow, water-soluble liquid.

Primarily utilized as an emulsifier, Polysorbate 80 partners with various hydrophobic emulsifiers to craft versatile oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsion systems. Its multifunctional properties extend beyond emulsification, acting as a surfactant and solubilizer, ensuring the smooth formulation and uniform distribution of skincare and body care products. Moreover, it aids in enhancing product texture, facilitating easy application, and uniform delivery of key ingredients to the skin.

Polysorbate 80 finds its application in an array of products, including linen sprays, room sprays, and body sprays, where oil solubilization in water is essential. Similar in function to Polysorbate 20 and Polysorbate 60, this versatile ingredient is a cornerstone in skincare and cosmetic formulations.

The cosmetic benefits of Polysorbate 80 are abundant:

• Superior solubilization of essential oils.
• Exceptional wetting agent properties.
• Effective viscosity modification capabilities.
• Reliable stabilizer and dispersing agent qualities.

With a recommended usage rate ranging from 1% to 20%, Polysorbate 80 harmonizes seamlessly with a variety of ingredients, making it an indispensable tool in the creation of personal care, hair care, and cosmetic products.
