Description

Sorbitan monopalmitate is a biocompatible polymer that is used in the formulation of pharmaceuticals. It is a complex molecule that contains an ester linkage between a glycerol and a fatty acid, with one fatty acid being lauric acid. Sorbitan monopalmitate has been shown to have good bioavailability in vivo and can be used as an excipient for drugs. Sorbitan monopalmitate exhibits good water solubility, which allows it to dissolve in water and easily be mixed into other substances. It is also stable at high temperatures and has low toxicity, making it suitable for use as a drug excipient.
