Sorbax PMO-5 polyoxyethylated sorbitan esters are used as emulsifiers and solubilizers. These surfactants are used in combination with lower HLB surfactants, particularly the corresponding non-ethoxylated sorbitan esters, for emulsification of petroleum oils and solvents, vegetable oils, waxes, silicones, and other water insoluble compounds.
