Polysorbate
Polysorbates are a class of emulsifiers and surfactants commonly found in cosmetics, hair products, pharmaceuticals, and food products. They are typically oils that help to solubilize other oils into the product. These products can act as wetting agents, surfactants, and stabilizers. They are synthesized from stearic acid, sorbitol, and ethylene oxide.
