FUNCTIONS OF POLYSORBATE 80 (E 433) IN FOOD:
*As emulsifier
In the emulsification process, Polysorbate 80 (E 433) aligns at the interface between water and oil phases.
The hydrophilic heads extend into the water, while the lipophilic tails immerse into the oil, creating micelles—tiny structures that encapsulate and disperse oil droplets within the water.
This arrangement prevents the oil droplets from coalescing and separating, resulting in a stable and homogenous emulsion.
Polysorbate 80 (E 433) is a common ingredient in baked goods, salad dressings, and ice cream.
For example, Polysorbate 80 (E 433) contributes to the smooth and creamy texture of ice cream, which enhances the desired mouthfeel.

KEY PROPERTIES AND STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF POLYSORBATE 80 (E 433):
Here are some of its key properties and structural characteristics:
*Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Balance (HLB) :
Polysorbate 80 (E 433) has a moderate HLB value, typically ranging from 15 to 16.
This balance of hydrophilicity and lipophilicity allows Polysorbate 80 (E 433) to act as an effective emulsifier, facilitating the formation of stable oil-in-water emulsions.
*Emulsifying Properties:
As an emulsifier, Polysorbate 80 (E 433) lowers the interfacial tension between oil and water phases, allowing them to mix more easily and form stable emulsions.
Polysorbate 80 (E 433) accomplishes this by adsorbing to the interface between the two phases, with its hydrophilic head facing the water phase and its lipophilic tail facing the oil phase.
*Solubilizing Ability:
Polysorbate 80 (E 433) exhibits solubilizing properties, enabling it to dissolve hydrophobic (water-insoluble) substances in aqueous solutions.
This makes Polysorbate 80 (E 433) useful in pharmaceutical formulations for improving the solubility and bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs.
*Stabilizing Effect:
In addition to its emulsifying and solubilizing properties, Polysorbate 80 (E 433) acts as a stabilizer in formulations, preventing the aggregation or precipitation of particles and enhancing the stability of suspensions and emulsions over time.
*Compatibility:
Polysorbate 80 (E 433) is compatible with a wide range of other ingredients, including oils, surfactants, and hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances.
This compatibility makes Polysorbate 80 (E 433) versatile and allows for its incorporation into diverse formulations across multiple industries.
CHEMISTRY OF POLYSORBATE 80 (E 433):
Polysorbate 80 (E 433) is derived from polyethoxylated sorbitan and oleic acid.
The hydrophilic groups in Polysorbate 80 (E 433) are polyethers also known as polyoxyethylene groups, which are polymers of ethylene oxide.
In the nomenclature of polysorbates, the numeric designation following polysorbate refers to the lipophilic group, in this case, the oleic acid (see polysorbate for more detail).
The full chemical names for Polysorbate 80 (E 433) are:
Polyoxyethylene (80) sorbitan monooleate
(x)-sorbitan mono-9-octadecenoate poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl)
The critical micelle concentration of Polysorbate 80 (E 433) in pure water is reported as 0.012 mM.

HOW IS POLYSORBATE 80 (E 433) MADE?
Polysorbates (20,40, 60, 65, 80) are the ethoxylated sorbitan esters which are manufactured by the reaction among sorbitol, a specific fatty acid, and ethylene oxide (an average of 20 polymerized ethylene oxide per molecule of Polysorbate 80 (E 433)).
The fatty acid used for the production of Polysorbate 80 (E 433) is oleic acid.
Let’s see its two raw materials.
**Sorbitol
It is a sugar alcohol produced by the reduction reaction (or hydrogenation) of glucose which is obtained from maize or tapioca starch. Know more Sorbitol here.
**Oleic Acid
Oleic acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid naturally found in animal fats & oils and vegetable oils.
Commercial food grade oleic acid is not pure and is a mixture of several fatty acids.
Like other fatty acids, oleic acid also present in nature commonly in the form of triglycerides.
The following are the vegetable oils high with oleic acid:
*Olive oil
*Pecan oil
*Canola oil
*Peanut oil
*Macadamia oil
*Sunflower oil
*Grape seed oil
*Sea buckthorn oil
*Sesame oil
*Poppyseed oil
MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF POLYSORBATE 80 (E 433):
According to the FDA, there are generally two steps in the manufacturing process of Polysorbate 80 (E 433):
Esterification between oleic acid and sorbitol to obtain sorbitan esters.
Condensation sorbitan esters with ethylene oxide.
Polysorbate 80 (E 433) can also be produced by reacting sorbitol and ethylene oxide first then esterified with oleic acid, the following are the brief flow chart:
*Obtaining the mixture of sorbitol and sorbitan by partially dehydrating sorbitol.
*Adding ethylene oxide to the mixture to obtain sorbitan polyethylene ether.
*Reacting it with oleic acid.
WHAT ARE POLYSORBATE 80 (E 433) (AFTER PPOLYSORBATE) AND 20 (FOLLOWING POLYOXYETHYLENE) STANDS FOR?
80 refers to the type of fatty acid attached to the polyoxyethylene sorbitan part of the molecule, here it is monooleate or oleic acid.
20 means the total number of oxyethylene –(CH2CH2O)–groups in the molecule.
