Sorbitan monooleate CAS 1338-43-8 |

It can also be used to make a nonionic detergent. Use as an emulsion agent, textile oil, and oil residues dispersant. This chemical is used extensively in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries.

The process involves sorbitol as a raw material, followed by a closed-loop dehydration to produce sorbitol and finally an esterification reaction using oleic acids. An amber-colored viscous greasy substance with a characteristic oily flavor and melting point of 10-12. It’s insoluble in cold water, but dispersible in hot water. It is nonionic with a HLB of 4.3. This surfactant has emulsification ability, solubilization and diffusion capability, but it also has a defoaming effect.

The process involves sorbitol as a raw material, followed by a closed-loop dehydration to produce sorbitol and finally an esterification reaction using oleic acids. A viscous amber colored oily substance, with oleic taste, with a melting point of between 10-12. Insoluble with water, but dispersed easily in hot water. Solvable in organic solvents. It is nonionic with a HLB of 4.3. This surfactant has emulsification ability, solubilization and diffusion capability, but it also has a defoaming effect.
