Polysorbate 80 1 kg

Large-Scale Solubilizing Power for Food, Pharma and Cosmetic Lines

Polysorbate 80 supplied in a 1 kg package is built for manufacturers who run continuous production lines and need a reliable, steady supply of a proven emulsifying agent. This ingredient belongs to the category of Emulsifiers, substances responsible for merging water and oil phases into a single, stable system. That single property has made polysorbate 80 one of the most searched and used ingredients across several industries simultaneously — food processing, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics manufacturing, and household chemical production.

In the food industry, this compound works as a stabilizer and emulsifier in ice cream, whipped toppings, sauces, mayonnaise, beverages, and baked goods, preventing separation between fat and water phases while extending shelf life and improving texture consistency across large batches. In pharmaceutical applications, it helps dissolve fat-soluble compounds in aqueous solutions and improves the bioavailability of active substances in liquid formulations. In cosmetic manufacturing, its main role is solubilizing essential oils, fragrance compounds, and oil extracts into water-based systems such as toners, room sprays, and water-based perfume compositions, keeping the finished liquid clear and free of floating oil droplets.

Typical dosage ranges from 0.5% to 5% depending on the volume of oil phase that needs solubilizing — generally an equal or slightly higher amount of emulsifier relative to the oil being dissolved. It can be added to either the cold or heated phase of a formula, since there are no strict temperature restrictions, which simplifies the process on an industrial production line. Store the raw material in a sealed container, in a dry area at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Polysorbate 80 pairs well with other emulsifiers and gel stabilizers used to build stable formulations. Combined with Aristoflex AVC 10 g, it produces stable gel emulsions with long shelf stability. For richer cream textures on production lines, it is frequently used together with Olivem 1000 10 g, while for lighter water-oil systems and spray formats its natural partner is Tween 20 50 g — both belong to the same polysorbate family and reinforce each other's solubilizing effect when blended together.

The 1 kg package size is designed for conveyor-belt and semi-industrial manufacturing, large-batch laboratory testing, and companies that require an uninterrupted stock of raw material without frequent reordering. This quantity allows a formulator to plan recipes covering hundreds of liters of finished product without worrying about running short mid-cycle.
