Tween 85 is an alkoxylated sorbitan ester which can be used to form oil-in-water emulsions. In combination with low HLB surfactants Tween 85 can also form water-in-oil emulsions. Tween 85 can be used in EPA approved oil spill dispersant formulations to accelerate the process of natural dispersion. It is adaptable to various application techniques and is compatible with a wide range of oil spill dispersant ingredients. Tween 85's properties make it ideally used within emulsifier, dispersant and wetting agent formulations.
