Span™ 120-LQ-(MH) (Sorbitan Isostearate) is a versatile nonionic surfactant renowned for its outstanding emulsification capabilities. This ingredient is primarily derived from Isostearic Acid, a fully saturated branched liquid fatty acid with an HLB value of 4.7, making it ideal for creating stable formulations. The product consists of a blend of mono and diesters, providing essential properties that enable it to serve as an effective emulsifier, detergent, and dispersing agent in cosmetic products. With the ability to produce both oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions depending on the required HLB, Span™ 120-LQ-(MH) is extensively utilized in personal care formulations, enhancing texture while delivering emollient and lubricating benefits.
