Tween 85 is a nonionic surfactant belonging to the class of polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters. It is derived from the reaction between sorbitol and fatty acids derived from vegetable or animal sources. Tween 85 is commonly used as an emulsifier, dispersant, and solubilizer in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, and personal care products.

As a surfactant, Tween 85 lowers the surface tension between two substances, allowing them to mix more easily. It is particularly effective in forming stable oil-in-water emulsions, making it useful in formulations such as creams, lotions, and emulsions. Additionally, Tween 85 can improve the solubility of poorly water-soluble substances in aqueous solutions, enhancing their bioavailability in pharmaceutical formulations.

Tween 85 is known for its versatility, stability, and low toxicity, making it a widely used ingredient in various applications.
