TWEEN-60

描述

TWEEN-60, also known as Polyoxyethylene (60) Sorbitan Monooleate or Polysorbate 60 (CAS No. 9005-67-8), is a nonionic surfactant of the polyoxyethylene (POE) type, widely used as an emulsifier, dispersant, stabilizer, softener, antistatic agent, and antirust agent. Derived from sorbitan monooleate with 60 ethoxy units, it offers exceptional stability in strong acid and alkali environments, making it ideal for food, cosmetics, plastics, and textile applications. Its chemical formula is C₁₀₄H₁₉₄O₆₆ (or C₂₄H₄₆O₆·(C₂H₄O)_n, where n=60).
