Tween 20 Usage
1. O/W food emulsifier, used alone or mixed with Span-60, Span-65, Span-80
2. Used as a solubilizer, penetrant, and dispersant for pharmaceuticals and cosmetics in medicine and daily chemicals.
3. As an anti-wax agent for oil well production in oil exploitation, the waxing of oil wells can be removed; as a viscosity reducer, the viscosity of crude oil can be reduced to increase oil well production and improve transport capacity.
4. This product has anti-rust and lubricity and is therefore used to prepare anti-rust lubricating oil and de-rusting and degreasing oil.
