Sorbax SMO sorbitan esters are oil soluble surfactants that are used to prepare stable water in oil emulsions. They are also used in combination with higher HLB surfactants, particularly the corresponding sorbitan ester ethoxylates for emulsifying petroleum oils and solvents, vegetable oils, waxes, silicones, and other water insoluble materials.
