PEG-40 Sorbitan Peroleate

PEG-40 Sorbitan Peroleate is a synthetic compound derived from sorbitol and oleic acid, ethoxylated with 40 units of ethylene oxide. It functions as an emulsifier and solubilizer in cosmetic products. This ingredient helps to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions and can also aid in dissolving oil-soluble ingredients into water-based formulas.
