Sorbitan Olivate
Description :
Overview of Sorbitan Olivate
Sorbitan Olivate is a plant-derived non-ionic emulsifier produced from olive oil fatty acids and sorbitol, widely used in personal care and cosmetic formulations for its gentle emulsifying action and excellent skin affinity. It typically appears as a yellowish liquid or semi-solid and is well known for supporting stable, skin-friendly oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions.
In personal care products, Sorbitan Olivate is valued for its ability to enhance skin hydration, improve emulsion stability, and support the skin’s natural barrier. It is commonly used in creams, lotions, serums, facial moisturisers, body care products, sunscreens, and baby care formulations. It is often paired with Cetearyl Olivate, Glyceryl Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, and natural oils to create biomimetic and long-lasting emulsions with a pleasant skin feel.
In selected home care and hygiene-oriented products, Sorbitan Olivate is used in skin-conditioning hand washes and mild cleansers, where gentle emulsification and skin compatibility are essential.
ChemicalBull supplies quality-grade Sorbitan Olivate suitable for cosmetic and personal care manufacturing, ensuring consistent emulsification performance, reliable stability, and dependable bulk supply.
