Chemical Information
FooDB NameSorbitan stearate
DescriptionFood emulsifier, stabiliser, defoaming agent, flavouring and flavour modifier, rehydration agent for active dried yeast, coating for fruit and vegetables and other food uses Sorbitan monostearate (also known as Span 60) is an ester of sorbitan (a sorbitol derivative) and stearic acid and is sometimes referred to as a synthetic wax. It is primarily used as an emulsifier to keep water and oils mixed. Sorbitan monostearate is used in the manufacture of food and healthcare products, and is a non-ionic surfactant with emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties.
