What is Polysorbate 20?
Polysorbate 20 has many application values. It is usually used as a dispersant, thickener, stabilizer, lubricant, and even as an antistatic agent. When it becomes an emulsifier, polysorbate-20 plays an important role in the production of cosmetics and some skin care products, mainly because it can reduce the surface tension between the ingredients in the emulsion and form a stable dispersion ability and emulsion system. This allows some of the better substances in its ingredients to be absorbed quickly.
