Character: TWEEN 85 also known as Polyoxyethylene (20) Sorbitan Trioleate or Polysorbate 85, is a kind of yellow clear oily liquid under room temperature, will become gel when temperature drop and liquefy again when temperature rise, with special odor and bitter taste; it is soluble in water, sulfuric acid, dilute alkali, aniline, ethyl acetate and toluene, while insoluble in vegetable oil and mineral oil.
Applications: Food grade TWEEN 85 is a kind of O/W emulsifier, it is widely used as emulsifier, dispersant, stabilizer, dispersing agent, softening agent, antistatic agent, finishing agent in industries such as food, medicine, cosmetics, paint and textile, and used as anti-rust agent in metal surface rust cleaning industry, meanwhile it is also used as the viscosity reducer for oil exploitation and transportation.
