1,4-Sorbitan

Description:
1,4-Sorbitan, also known as sorbitan, is a cyclic sugar alcohol derived from sorbitol. It is characterized by its structure, which features a six-membered ring containing five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its specific form and purity. 1,4-Sorbitan is known for its emulsifying properties, making it useful in various applications, particularly in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. It acts as a surfactant, helping to stabilize mixtures of oil and water. Additionally, it is biodegradable and considered safe for use in food products. The substance has a relatively low toxicity profile, but like many chemical compounds, it should be handled with care to avoid potential irritation. Its versatility and effectiveness as an emulsifier and stabilizer make it a valuable ingredient in many formulations.
