Sorbitan Laurate. Acts as an emulsifier. It is made up of sorbitan esters derived from the reaction of sorbitol with fatty acids sourced from a vegetable source. The presence of both hydrophilic and lipophilic groups reduces the interfacial tension between oil phases and aqueous phases, allowing the formulation of stable emulsions. It is lipophilic in nature having low HLB value. The lipophilic nature makes it soluble or dispersible in oil, favoring its use in water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions and in combination with high HLB emulsifiers in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions. Used to prepare cosmetic creams and lotions.

The ALKEST SP line is made up of sorbitan esters derived from the reaction of sorbitol with fatty acids. Products from the ALKEST SP line are lipophilic, having low HLB values. The lipophilic nature makes these products soluble or dispersible in oil, favoring their use in water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions and as low HLB emulsifiers used in combination with high HLB emulsifiers in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions.

ALKEST SP 20 R is recommended as an emulsifier in liquid and paste wax formulas, a solvent base for floor and automotive polishing waxes and furniture polish. Tailored HLB emulsification systems are obtainable using ALKEST SP.

The ALKEST TW line is made up of ethoxylated sorbitan esters. The products in the ALKEST TW line are hydrophilic, having high HLB values. The presence of the polyoxyethylene chain makes the products in the ALKEST TW line soluble or dispersible in water, which favors their application in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, as dispersants/solubilizers of oils and fragrances, and as co-surfactants and humectants in shampoos, hand soaps, and body washes. Because of the high degree of ethoxylation in the ALKES TW line, these products also function well as humectants and antistatic agents. ALKEST TW lines and their mixtures are recommended as emulsifiers in liquid and paste wax formulas, a solvent base for floor and automotive polishing waxes and furniture polish. Tailored HLB emulsification systems are obtainable using ALKEST SP and ALKEST TW mixtures.
