Sorbitan Oleate

Sorbitan oleate, also known scientifically as Sorbitan Esters of Fatty Acids, is a chemical compound included in a wide range of industrial and consumer products. This compound is produced by the esterification of sorbitol (sugar alcohol) and oleic acid (saturated fatty acid) and is known for its highly effective emulsifiers and stabilizers.

The main use of sorbitan oleate is in the cosmetics industry, where it is a component of many types of makeups, skin creams, body lotions, shampoos, sunscreens and other skin and body care products. In particular, it is used for its ability to help blend water and oils, resulting in creams and lotions with a smooth texture. In addition to the cosmetics industry, sorbitan oleate is also used in the food industry as an additive in baked goods and other foods, where it plays the role of a substance stabilizer. Finally, it is also found in some pharmaceutical products as an emulsifier and surface smoother.
