Products Description
The substance with CAS number 9005-66-7 is Tween 40, whose scientific name is Polyoxyethylenesorbitan monopalmitate. It usually appears as a yellow to amber oily liquid or paste, and sometimes as a light yellow waxy paste or light yellow liquid. It may turn into a gel after being left for a long time.
The relative density of Tween 40 is between 1.05 and 1.10, the refractive index is 1.470, the viscosity is 0.4 to 0.6 Pa·s at 25°C, and the HLB value is 15.6. Tween 40 is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, cottonseed oil, etc. It is also soluble in dilute acids, dilute alkalis and most organic solvents, but insoluble in vegetable oils and mineral oils. Its acid value is ≤2mgKOH/g, hydroxyl value is 85 to 100mgKOH/g, saponification value is 40 to 55mgKOH/g, and moisture content is ≤3%.

Uses
Emulsification: Tween 40 is an oil/water emulsifier that can be used to prepare stable oil-in-water emulsions. It is applied to emulsify ingredients such as oils and fats in the food and cosmetics industries. For example, it is used as an emulsifier in plant protein beverages, with a maximum usage of 2.0 g/kg.
Solubilization: It can serve as a solubilizer to assist poorly soluble substances in dissolving in water. It is commonly employed in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.
Other applications: Tween 40 can also function as a stabilizer, diffusant, antistatic agent, and fiber lubricant. In the textile industry, it can act as an antistatic agent and fiber lubricant. In gas chromatography, it can be used as a stationary phase to separate and analyze fatty acid esters, alcohols, ketones, and halides.
Preparation method
Preparation method: Sorbitol anhydride is esterified with edible palmitic acid, and then condensed with ethylene oxide at a molar ratio of 1:20.
Storage conditions: Store in a sealed and light-proof place at room temperature in a ventilated and dry place.
